This is a tiny website, about an enormous subject:
Therapeutic yoga as a natural part of life: finding the extraordinary in the ordinary
I am Linda Lang, and I welcome YOU to this landing page, AS I BUILD A NEW SITE … a site dedicated to you, and all people who wish to take greater responsibility for their well-being through the philosophies and practices of yoga.
As the site is polished, the purpose of this page is to invite you to read, and reach out.
YOGA is the language of Hope.
It speaks to us in whisper and chant, with invitation and challenge and promise. Step onto a mat, sit comfortably in your chair or stretch out, feel support beneath you and around you.
Discover how lifestyle choices are inherently empowering, healing, curative and restorative.
This is for and about all people who wish for optimal health and better being, for people who’ve become patients, and patients who wish to become students.

An upcoming Seminar with the Smithsonian Associates
YOGA AND AGING: Accessible Yoga Practices
Thursday afternoon, June 18th from 12’noon-2:00
Join me for two hours of uncommon inquiry and engagement.
Intended for individuals who prefer or require seated activities rather than standing or being on the floor, we’ll move through a wide variety of yoga poses, breathing techniques and multi-sensory meditative practices, while considering the physical and emotional benefits as explored and explained by scientific research.
This will be a wonderful time for you to ask questions about how yoga therapy might help you prevent injury and avoid or cope with debilitating conditions. I’ll also demonstrate postures and movements to strengthen and support parts of our bodies that are vulnerable to the passage of time. My intention is to explain how you can experience yoga as pre-habilitation and rehabilitation following injury, illness or surgery and “open the floor” to questions and comments about your own situations, perceived limitations and desires to stay stronger longer.

This is the yoga of self-discovery,
For personal and professional growth
The therapeutic applications of yogic practices are extensive, fascinating, powerful and empowering, comprehensive and compelling.
And at the very same time, they reveal a deeper process unfolding, as we discover the richness of our inner lives and the transcendent nature of this existence. We move between finite and infinite experiences ~ the interaction of teacher and student, one compassionate person with another, opens the doors to this awareness, infinitely spacious and timeless.
An experienced therapeutic instructor or yoga therapist is the perfect partner for individuals seeking greater self-awareness through the yogic lens. This is where we discover self-care practices to maintain health, build strength and resilience, prevent and when necesssary, cope with the onset of diseases and chronic conditions.
