| Welcome to YogaBizz! |
 If you are reading this newsletter, I assume you love yoga as I do. In fact, we love it so much, we offer it to others - as a teacher/therapist, studio owner, or wellness professional.
This path might be new for you, as it was for me back in 2001, when I moved from 20 years in high-tech corporate into my private practice as a Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy practitioner. ( Click here to read my story of transition.) What I discovered, is that my initial excitement for my work, at some point turned to fear. My teacher would say, " Fear is simply excitement without breath." She's so right! I remember when I first began that no one in Seattle had ever heard of Phoenix Rising. No clients came in and my money quickly dwindled. Fear came, my body tensed - NO BREATH! And now, with help from my team of experts, (you'll get to work with all of us in the upcoming Radical Success programs), here's YogaBlaze / YogaBizz. The excitement is back and my body & BREATH are flowing! You have chosen this path - now be successful!
YogaBlaze and now YogaBizz - with its companion newsletter & website, special events, business courses, private coaching & resources - has been created to support you in generating excitement & transmuting the fear so that you can be out there offering what you love - yoga.
This world needs you. Don't stop. Ask for help.
Wishing you success in whatever way you define this...

Bizz Tip: 2008 Yoga Predictions from Megan McDonough |
I am thrilled to introduce Megan McDonough*, one of the YogaBizz "Radical Success" tele-course speakers and a respected marketing consultant for wellness organizations including Kripalu.
At the beginning of this year, Megan documented her yoga predictions - forecasting for 2008 & beyond. As you read these 3 (out of 10) of Megan's predictions, consider if and how you are positioning your yoga business in response to what the future may bring.
- You'll need to stand out to stay in. ...While ten years ago people asked, "What is yoga?," the question now is, "How is this yoga different from all other yogas?"
- Yoga will be on the move. Yoga will continue to migrate out of the studio ... Think yoga at your desk, for specific populations, or at out-of-the-box locations.
- You'll see more yoga in cyberspace. ...you'll see more options in the coming year for virtual yoga classes online.
Read the full article with all ten 2008 predictions and SIGN UP for Megan's Mindful Marketing newsletter by going to www.mindfulmarketing.net/articles/2008predictions.htm
Keep your eyes peeled - Megan returns in later YogaBizz editions with more tips & tools.
*Megan McDonough helps you get clear so you can get positive results. Along with teaching yoga, she's the award-winning author of Infinity in a Box, a marketing consultant for mind/body organizations including Kripalu Center, marketing faculty for Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy, and a corporate trainer to companies such as the American Cancer Society. www.beyondclasses.com.
