Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

I originally hoped to become an acupuncturist, but time is of the essence so I have shifted gears. Based on my experiences teaching local residents yoga at the Stephentown Library, I have decided to focus on yoga and breathing rather than the entire Masters of Acupuncture.

This is where I'm going folks. This fall and winter, in addition to helping out with OEC candidates who wish to become ski patrollers, I will be training for crises intervention through Kripalu yoga (hope to cert. Nov 2011) and Breath~Body~Mind© Training for Trauma (cert. Sept 2011).

I am particularly concerned about our growing population of people who suffer from PTSD, enduring overweight bodies, and hurting psyches. My dream and goal is to reach out to as many people as possible and help them lead happier more satisfying lives. My book, Tripping with Gabrielle, is a story of addiction, PTSD and finally happiness. If I can get there so can you!

Om Shanti Om
