Ultima Replenisher ~ In Yoga Magazine September 09

Ultima Replenisher ~ YOGA Magazine

Ultima Replenisher is featured in the September issue of YOGA magazine! The “What’s Hot” section of the issue boasts about the benefits of Ultima and how it’s good for anyone, anytime. The article mentions several yoga studios that market the product, including Moksha Yoga, Dog Down Yoga, Kneeding Hands Yoga & Massage, and Bikram College of India (N.C.).

The article is already having an impact! A.Spica says “This is great! My own yoga studio wasn’t interested as they said it’s for power and/or Bikram yoga not lyengar. I hope this changes their mind!”

Seth Bovio, the formulator of Ultima Replinisher, describes the product perfectly in the article: “Ultima is not another source of sugar and salt, but rather a true balanced electrolyte drink with readily- absorbed minimal carbohydrates.”

GO KEITH GO!

Good Luck everyone!!! GO KEITH GO!

Downward Facing Dog

Everyone who remembers their first yoga class will probably admit to giggling at the term "downward facing dog". But when you learn to relax into this pose, it quickly becomes one of your favorites. It is interesting to look at the origins of this pose - It really is quite similar to the streach Fido does when getting up from a nap.

Yoga Journal says: Down Dog calms the brain and helps relieve stress and mild depression; it helps relieve the symptoms of menopause; it relieves menstrual discomfort when done with the head supported; it helps prevent osteoporosis; it improves digestion; it relieves headaches, insomnia, back pain, and fatigue; and it is therapeutic for high blood pressure, asthma, flat feet, sciatica, and sinusitis.

So next time you get up from a move called "couch potato" - try a "downward facing dog" and feel the benefits.

Quick snacks & drinks to keep you flowing druing yoga class... try GoMacro MacroBars & Ultima.

To keep your feeling of balance through out the day drink Vastu Chai.

Namasté...
