This is a group about how non-experts can do better than the health advice of experts. For example, how to reduce acne without taking the drugs recommended by a dermatologist.

Because of online information and cheap measurement, this has become more possible than ever before. We will share stories about this.

Maum Meditation uses a logical and unique method to subtract the human mind which is an accumulation of pictures from the past. The human mind is always changing and is always trying to add more desirable experiences and conditions. There is no end to this addition, so it is a stressful and busy mind. The way to find peace and clarity is to know the original mind, the universe mind, by consciously taking the time to subtract the past that has been recorded and stored within the body and mind. N …

Our Third Act is a social movement, by and for older adults, powered by social enterprise. It is education and mutual support in action, as we create healthy and fulfilling lives as we age. American culture is obsessed with youth, and is stuck in an outdated paradigm of aging, so as we age we’re seen as “over the hill”, useless, decrepit and ugly. And, the societal systems for aging are far worse than negative social attitudes. Our financial structures, housing, and healthcare are completely dys …

This is a group for yogis who are also hikers. We hike, we practice yoga, we meditate, we become friends. Our best sun salutations are in the wilderness where we feel complete and one whole with Mother Earth. Our hikes are challenging but our yoga retreats in the woods and in the mountains are peaceful. Our outings will be in small groups as wilderness and crowds do not go together. I am a member of other meetups and I learned from those experiences. I would like to set up this one differently. …

Practicing yoga nude liberates your body, and doing it with other women heightens your sense of …

I am a local yoga teacher and I am daily enjoying the Redwoods of the Oakland Hills. I find that the best way to feel my kinship with the Earth is to practice yoga outside.

If you want to feel alive and deepen your realized connection with the Redwoods you will feel the Redwoods say THANK YOU for your exhale by giving you …
