Welcome to Pose-itively Yoga. I’m Dr. Loretta Standley - owner and founder of Pose-itively Yoga.
Over 20 years ago I developed this program - ‘And Who Are You?’ with an accompanying workbook that I would take my patients through as they worked on the health of their entire being. This was back when I was a practicing Chiropractor, where I owned and operated a women’s clinic.
This program is my take on ‘Holistic aka Wholistic’ health.
Over the years, this program has tweaked and upgraded, as I grew in continued study, knowledge and experience, which has been on our sister-site DrStandley.com for the past 21 years.
There are so many dots connected in this title that weaves in the totality of the self. The title 'And Who Are You?' comes directly from an experience I had when applying for a job at the local McDonalds when I was 16 years old.
When the new McDonald’s in town opened, all of my friends received their phone call to begin work but I did not receive my phone call. I could not and would not accept that I was not included as a new hire. My mom offered to drive me to the bank where they were conducting interviews as I did not yet have my driver’s license. I wanted to know why I did not get a phone call. Why not me?
As I stood in the doorway telling the manager that I did not receive a phone call, without even looking up at me from his newspaper he said that everyone had been hired.
I said, "Yes sir, I understand, but I did not receive MY phone call."
He said again, "Everyone has been hired."
I said, 'Yes sir. I understand but I did not receive MY phone call."
Finally looking up over his newspaper with his classes on the tip of his nose he said, "And who are you?"
I said with a huge grin (I found it cool that I made him look up) and I said, "I'm Loretta Standley! How can I help you?"
He said, "The uniforms are in the next room. We start training on Saturday at 9:00 AM."
I always remembered that man saying to me, "And who are you?" Even though I thought, "Dude you have no idea who you are talking to." I knew then that knowing myself was the most important thing I could do for me.
This program is not only about your physical health, it is about your spiritual health, your mental health and all health's in between. S-P-E-C-I-A-L (in the subtitle) is an acronym, which describes the individual "fingerprint" type qualities you were naturally born with, which follows the natural color spectrum (ROY G BIV) - Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet and coincides with the 7 chakras.
The acronym S-P-E-C-I-A-L stands for -- (S)piritual Involvement - (P)hysical Energy - (E)motional Attachment - (C)hemical Balance - (I)ntuitive Response - (A)rtistic Expression and Creativity - (L)ove of Self and Others.
This is my take on holistic healthcare. This workbook, it's nearly 200 pages. It's a lot of Goodies. You can even choose if you want a yoga membership (video’s or classes) to accompany your journey.
