Why AromaYIN™? In accordance with the wisdom of the chakras, a longing for
balance is Nature’s way of finding peace. Most yoga practiced today focuses on a more
active, masculine, or ‘yang’ approach of strengthening and lengthening muscles while
releasing toxins through building heat in the body. AromaYIN™ provides a complimentary
balance bringing a more receptive/feminine/yin approach that addresses the denser,
deeper connective tissues in the body such as ligaments, bones, cartilage, and fascia.

This juicy new style of yoga
offers the ultimate in
relaxation. Each yin and
restorative pose is infused
with an aromatherapy to
balance a specific chakra
point. Reiki, guided medita-
tion, and hands-on adjust-
ments assist in calming the
mind and melting the body
into a sweet surrender.
AromaYIN™ is entirely on
the ground, which makes
this style of yoga accessible
to those who have difficulty
with balance. The class
begins without a warm-up
and consists of 3-5 yin
poses, a gentle floor-based
vinyasa, and then 3-5
restorative poses.
5 Principles of AromaYIN™:
Yin Poses,
Restorative Poses,
Aromatherapy,
Chakra Meditation,
Hands-On Assists.

New Teachers for Old Favorites & Two NEW CLASSES on the schedule!
Join Alex A. taking over for
Raise the Vibration!
on Tuesdays from
8:15-9:45pm!
Raise The Vibration!—Liberate yourself, recharge
your passion for life and un-
tangle any negativity. Savor
a vinyasa/restorative prac-
tice infused with Aroma-
therapy, and enjoy live mu-
sic during Savasana!
Join Rachel for
Total Training,
NEW on Sat.
from 9-10am!
Total Training—
Total Training™ is
an efficient, effective
workout for the
body and brain combining yoga, personal
training techniques, and mantra. This low-
impact, stress-reducing, high-intensity
method uses only body weight, a ring, and a
thera-band for resistance to sculpt long, lean
muscles and improve posture, coordination,
and flexibility. The practice of mantra makes
the training complete as it reprograms the
mind with empowering messages to enhance
mood, productivity, and self-esteem. The
workout demands ultimate exertion, with
brief recovery periods, providing the most
potential for caloric burn, increased
metabolism, and cardiovascular strength.
Join Nicole taking over for AromaYIN on Tuesdays from 5-6:15pm!
Join Donna for AromaYIN, NEW on Thursdays from 5-6:15pm!
AromaYIN—Inspired by The Giving Tree's Restorative Yoga, Massage, Reiki,
and Aromatherapy Workshop, this class offers ultimate indulgence and restoration
for the body, mind, and spirit! Infusing the wisdom of the chakras with the
balancing properties of aromatherapy, the poses are deepened with
hands-on adjustments that will melt the body into sweet surrender.
Join Sheilagh for Prenatal
Yoga on Saturdays
from 4-5:15pm!
Prenatal Yoga—Come meet other
expecting mothers & receive helpful tips
while being guided through a safe yoga
practice specifically designed to address
the needs of pregnancy. Pregnancy is a
magnificent time in a mother's life. Prena-
tal yoga can help enhance the wonderful
sensations of pregnancy and relieve some
of the less-than pleasant aspects, such as
nausea and mood swings. Asanas in this
fun, vibrant and down-to-earth prenatal
yoga class are designed to give mamas the
strength they’ll need to go through preg-
nancy and push their babies out at the
end. We’ll also work on alleviating common
(and unusual) pregnancy-specific side-
effects, such as lower-back pain, nighttime
leg cramps and shortness of breath. We'll
spend a few minutes at the beginning of
class going over how everyone's doing and
will tailor the class to suit those needs

What i s NMW? Since indigenous times, women have met once a month, across the globe, during the energy of the new moon. Circles are hosted in homes, yoga studios, churches, or outside when the
weather is warm. Each circle represents powerful, conscious women coming together to be supported and to support one another. Through meditation, sharing, and listening, the energies of the previous month are released and new intentions are created for the month ahead.
Check out NewMoonWomen.com
for more information!
Join the women of your community in powerful conversation and conscious creation of the month ahead. Bring forth your
leadership skills, harness the wise woman within, and witness the strength of the collective feminine! We will focus on opening our-selves up to the healing power of feminine energy with the use of meditation, yoga, music, and group discussion. Since its beginning
in NYC, NY in January of 2003, well over 1000 women have participated in this ancient tradition through New Moon Women.
The aim of this circle is to guide women to connect with the incredible power that lies within each and every one of us. A few
years ago, the circle began expanding into other communities and supporting women all around the world in creating their own New Moon Women’s Circle! If there is no circle near you, empower the women in your community and start your own.
We can help! If you can ’t make the meetings, you are still welcome to join in the group activities on our Facebook page and share in the experience!
Email [email protected] to be added to the FB group or for support in creating your own circle.

RAISE THE VIBRATION TOUR OF AMERICA UPDATE Note from GTYS OWNERS: Our sixth month on the road
Hello from sunny California! We had no idea how big this state was until we drove it from top to bottom. After leaving Portland, we headed South to Mount Shasta to film a Kundalini video. Our next stop was Redding, California, where we taught at
Brahma Shanti, a beautiful studio owned by two incredible women! The turnout was small, but the connections were deep. Ashley and Jazzie are incredible leaders,
bringing many sources of healing to their community! We camped at a beautiful lake in Whiskeytown, where we were surrounded by the breathtaking panorama of Northern California. We drove down Highway 1 to take in the beauty of this
historic drive on our way to Nipomo, near San Luis Obispo. The reception at Yoga Shine was abundant as we taught our full weekend of workshops to packed rooms.
This yoga studio was founded by a beautiful teacher and community builder, Jesselle, who takes great care of her yoga family. The students were so enthusiastic about
the teachings and many eagerly helped us spread the word to other studios further South. There is a severe opioid epidemic and homeless crisis in many
parts of Northern California, but it is promising that these community centers are sourcing the healing of the residents.

RAISE THE VIBRATION TOUR OF AMERICA UPDATE CONTINUED On a student’s recommendation, on our way to Long Beach, we stopped in the town of Ojai known for its spiritual retreats. This tiny town boasts of a natural environment of
spiritual healing and the final home of Krishnamurti. Enduring our first taste of LA traffic (on this tour), we finally arrived at Bob and Brittney’s home, our dear friends and hosts. That weekend, we had only one student show for our workshop in Irvine; but even if there is just one student, we will teach. While Anthony left to spend 10
days in NYC, Anne-Margaret stayed behind to work from California and spend treasured time with Bob and Brittney and their two incredible children.

BOOK OF THE MONTH:
Gratitude
By Oliver Sacks
“My predominant feeling is one of
gratitude. I have loved and been
loved. I have been given much and
I have given something in return.
Above all, I have been a sentient
being, a thinking animal, on this
beautiful planet, and that in itself
has been
an enor-
mous
privilege
and ad-
venture.”
—Oliver
Sacks
15
MONTHLY THEME:
Yes, & Thank You Gratitude is the most powerful way to
alchemize the energy of resistance into
transformational surrender. Being on the
road for five months has taught us lessons
of surrender we never knew were possible.
When things aren’t going our way, we have
begun practicing a simple mantra that most
quickly unveils the blessings that come with
the unexpected. Rather than ’No, this isn’t
it’ we now say, ‘Yes, and thank you’ to align
with the beautiful unfolding of this journey.
When a road closes, you must take a detour
that may alter the course of your life forever!
If you are busy resisting or complaining
about the unforeseen change, you will
miss the gift of the unexpected.
As we begin the holiday season, chock full
of the unexpected, practice this mantra to
embrace whatever you typically resist.
In doing this, you will open yourself to
experiencing others in a new light and
circumstances with a new joy.
Quote of the Month: “Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings
peace for today, and creates a vision
for tomorrow.” - Melody Beattie

I am so excited about this Full Moon in Taurus on Friday,
November 4th. It is going to be so bright, pretty and joyful.
Taurus is one of the two signs ruled by Venus (the other is Libra) and another fun thing about this Full Moon is that Friday is the day that is ruled by Venus.
So this Full Moon is packed with the beautiful loving Venusian Vibe. Divine Feminine Friday? Absolutely!!!
To add to the magic vibe of this Full Moon is that it is making a sweet kiss towards Neptune, the planet of hopes, dreams and spirituality. It’s a great
night for a painting party, a party or a drumming circle. This is a Full Moon that offers healing around Love, Spirituality and any kind of artistic venture. Stay open to the loving vibes and the revelations around this Full Moon.
While Taurus is an Earth sign, and most often times earth signs are
associated with the Root Chakra, Taurus is also the sign that rules singing, the throat and shoulders I feel moved to offer asanas around the Throat Chakra (5th Chakra/Visuddha).
I would recommend the Cobra Pose (Bhujangasnana) and Upward Plank (Purvottanasana)
to really open up this part of your spirit and body in a loving and beautiful way.
If you have Spearmint Essential Oil a little dab on your throat also helps to speak a truth in a powerful, confident way.
While meditating on this Full Moon the Tarot Card I pulled was the Page of Cups. This card is such a lovely portent for the Full Moon! It’s a powerful love card, with unexpected
news of an engagement, a pregnancy or a declaration of love. This card brings up beautiful emotions, and a safe place to
express these emotions. It’s also a beauti-ful card around an artistic venture.
Be open and aware of all of the beauty and magic around you this Full Moon.
Let yourself be enchanted.
