Insider Secrets to Marketing Your Yoga Teaching Service, Part 2

Natural Search engine ranking presence, on multiple keywords, also requires significant knowledge of Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Although you are a yogi, you should look at SEO as a hobby because good and reputable SEO experts cost big money.

Therefore, stay away from SEO services that will get you ranked with 12,000 search engines for $9.95. Those services will usually get your Yoga website blacklisted, if they continuously submit every month. The search engines just ignore your continuous submissions as SPAM. If you want to save significant money, and do some of it yourself, buy a book which explains SEO in simplistic terms.

One last point to bring up about SEO: There are only a few search engines that you really need to submit to. Start with these: google, yahoo, AOL, MSN, Ask, Netscape, dog Pile, and Alta Vista.

The above-mentioned eight search engines receive over 90% of all the traffic on the internet. Currently, google easily gets more than half of all the Internet traffic. Some statistics claim that google gets over 75% of all the web traffic.

Yes, there are thousands of other search engines, but what is their geographic reach? many of them are specialized search engines for a particular country or language. If you have a local Yoga studio, do you have to be listed in a search engine on the other side of the planet? For example: Lets say you teach Yoga in a suburb of Denver, colorado and are listed in a Korean search engine. Thats nice, but I doubt you will get any walk-ins, from that listing, in your next Yoga class.

Pay-per-click campaigns can get your Yoga business a space on the front page of most search engines. google has more than half of all the internet traffic, so their Adwords program, alone, is worth looking into for a start.

Heres an idea: Start your Yoga web site, or blog, ASAP (as soon as possible!), keep it running, and expand when you grow. Do not get hung up on perfection; thats what causes procrastination. If we did that in Yoga, none of us would become Yoga teachers.

I dont care if youre teaching Yoga in a cellar, barn, loft, garage, in the woods, at the beach, or just thinking about it. People wont know you are a Yoga teacher, if you dont announce it.

5 Keys To Good Colon Health

1. Herbal Support for the colon Muscles
Many people have constipation or partial constipation. Partial constipation is where you do not have as many bowel movements a day as meals you eat. In other words, if you eat 3 times a day you would expect to have 3 bowel movements a day. Having this many bowel movements is often not usual; but it is 'normal'.

To enable this, 'colon cleansing' is often used. A herbal formula is by far the best and easiest way to achieve 3 regular bowel movements a day. The top herbal formula, proven by tens of thousands of people who have used it, is one based on the original formula of the renowned Dr john Christopher. Dr Christopher taught naturopathy and herbalism in America in the 70s and 80s. His formula is fantastic and many slightly different versions exist, some of which credit Dr Christopher and some of which don't!

His herbal formula is based on the herb cascara sagrada (Rhamnus purshiana) supported by 6 or 7 other herbs, including fennel, cayenne pepper, barberry and ginger. It needs to be taken every single day, not just occasionally. (Though sometimes '6 days a week' is recommended, and this is fine.)

2. Fibre and A Good Diet
The second requirement for good bowel function is lots of fibre in the diet. This is most easily achieved by eating lots and lots of vegetables. Brown rice and whole wheat and other whole grains are also high in fibre. When using a cascara-based formula as above, the formula is often supplemented with Psyllium Husks. These are the outer casing of a seed of the Plantago variety, which provide lubricating fibre which absorb water and swell up. This is why you must drink extra water when using Psyllium. Psyllium helps to bulk up the stool making it easier to pass along the bowel. It is wise to drink around 2 litres of water daily anyway, for good health and to achieve soft stools.

3. friendly Bacteria - Acidophilus et al
Many people have a deficiency of 'friendly bacteria'. Bacteria are present in large amounts in the bowel, and in the stool. The 'wrong type' of bacteria, the 'unfriendly bacteria' easily take over in the the bowel so to achieve good bowel health it is helpful if the friendly types are supplemented. These include acidophilus bacteria. The best supplements contain additional types of friendly bacteria too. The best contain patented strains of these which are hardy enough to survive the journey through the stomach to the bowel.

4. Regular Exercise
Exercising the abdominal area is important to good bowel health. Vigorous exercise such as racket games which involve stooping and yoga exercises are usually helpful.

5. Calm Nerves
Bowel health is greatly affected by the nervous system. Poor nerves and stress often lead to inflammatory bowel conditions such as diverticulitis, colitis and IBS (irritable bowel syndrome).

The answer is in steadily building the nerves (eg with herbs or homoeopathy) and learning to relax more. One powerful route to relaxation is through regular meditation .

Using herbs, there are 3-month herbal programmes available which help build the nerves and the adrenal glands, which are important to boost nerve health.
