Given that the Western model of Yoga tends toward only a focus on the physical aspects of the practice\, I was happy to find a more traditio nal practice of Hatha Yoga through the Ananda Temple here in Beaverton\, O R. Teacher Melissa Heart brings this practice to life with her unique and effective teaching style with an emphasis on being conscious and still as we move into poses\, hold the pose\, and come out of the pose. This practi ce emphasizes utilizing the poses to relax the body and be aware of our st ate of mind to ultimately prepare for meditation. Melissa is a gem that I am grateful to have met\, as you can feel her love for the practice and de sire to share it with others. On a physical level\, I had been diagnosed m any years ago with a Lumbar spine defect that had given me significant pai n and limitations for several decades\, and this practice has made me virt ually pain free in about 3 months. A true miracle. I am forever grateful a nd will be a lifetime supporter of Melissa and Ananda Yoga."
