In every relationship communication is the key to understanding each other. Head to head communication is through thoughts and words, while heart to heart communication is through feelings. In many situations, we have felt that we cannot communicate our feelings. If we could communicate all our feelings through words, then we would be leading very shallow lives. Life is rich because feelings cannot be captured in words. So we use all these gestures- we hug, so that hearts come closer, we give flowers, so that feelings are conveyed......We put all our efforts into expressing our feelings.......and still, feelings remain unexpressed.... Whether you are in a relationship, just came out of one or want to be in one - this session is for you. Relationships with a lover, with friends, peers or even colleagues at work - all are sustained by the right kind of communication. We invite you to attend and see how this session can improve the quality of your relationships. In this session, we will not only see why communication breaks down but also find out the secret of successful relationships. At Art of Living Houston sessions, we will have a topic that uplifts us and enriches our lives. All sessions are interactive and fun. Nominal charge to attend! RSVP is a must.

Sri Sri Yoga Course. Sri Sri Yoga is a celebration of the diversity in Yoga in a thorough and joyful manner. We combine yoga essentials- breathing techniques, stretching and postures, meditation and relaxation, and yogic knowledge. By incorporating all these beautiful facets of yoga we are able to look deep beyond the level of the physical body and really sharpen our sensitivity and awareness of subtler levels of existence. Practice of Sri Sri Yoga cultivates a more healthy and happy lifestyle. On a physical level, Yogic exercises strengthen, lengthen and replenish muscle tissues, which helps hold bones and align the whole body. Holding postures burns fat and reduces cholesterol. Yogic breathing brings more oxygen to the heart and nourishes the whole system. The breath work also aids in reducing toxin levels in the body by expelling unwanted stresses. The Highlights of Sri Sri Yoga course can be succinctly captured by the Five P's: POWERFUL combination of postures, breathwork, relaxation and meditation. This holistic combination works in synergy and lays foundation to create exuberant health and enormous personal growth. PERSONALIZE your practice based on your unique body type. Basic Ayurveda is introduced in the workshop to identify one's body type and how the practice can be tailor-made to maximize the health benefits. PROFOUND wisdom from Classic Yoga texts including Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. A thorough introduction and understanding of the principles of correct posture, secrets of the breath and the purpose of meditation to elevate the quality of the practice. PRACTICAL tips from Yoga that can be applied in daily life. Examples: Yoga and proper diet, how to handle stress in the mind and body in day-to-day situations, how to bring harmony in our relationships and interactions with people, and much more. PEACE and tranquility combined with Energy and Enthusiasm. Experience the unique combination of peace and sharp, focused awareness. From this state of awareness creative ideas and solutions are born.
