A few weeks ago we held our first meditation workshop with Phillip McLemore.  Phillip studied meditation with the last living disciple of Paramahansa Yogananda, author of Autobiography of a Yogi. I LOVE that book and was completely blown away with a lot of the things it said, so I was very excited to absorb some of his knowledge and experience.

Phillip's presence was very clear and grounding and he was a very dynamic teacher.  He has developed a meditation called, The Abba Om Meditation.  He taught this meditation at this workshop and each time I inhaled, I felt chills rush up my spine.  I have since practiced his Abba Om Meditation at home several times and on the days that I have, it has deepened my awareness, and my ability to stay centered through out the day.  If my two year old were old enough to understand how I am gaining more patience, he too would be very grateful to Phillip for what he has taught me. 

Now it's up to me to meditate EVERY DAY!!  I'm excited to bring Phillip back to start a regular meditation group.  I know our community will be blessed for it.

    About Me
    Amber Gurr

     I was first introduced to yoga in 2001 and quickly fell in love.  In 2004, I completed my 500 hour teacher training with D'ana Baptiste and have done annual trainings since that time with notable teachers such as Mark Whitwell, David Williams, Baron Baptiste and Rolf Gates.  I love teaching and I love seeing yoga bless both the physical and spiritual aspects of people's lives.

    I have a husband and 4 little boys, ages 9, 3, 2 and 0 that keep me busy and playing.  I decided that now is the time for me to be home with my family so now I just sub a yoga class here and there.    I also am a nutritional herbalist, herbalist, doula, have an Associates degree in music,  teach piano and do some energy readings and healing here and there. 

    I am excited to share some of the tid bits of truth that I have come across that have shaped my life thus far and hope that this sharing  will assist many others in their journey.

    Namaste!
