Dear Yoga friends, and family in their 80s and 90s' ~ Dick (Robb MD, possibly posthumously, also a professor in Harvard Medical School), Yogi Ishvara (aka Bob Hartley, founder of Harbin Hot Springs since 1972 & Heart Consciousness Church since 1975, and Harvard alum), Unitarians' Chris Michaels and Ma/Janie, and cousins' Stacy & Mark - Happy Birthday, Mark (Briscoe, who went to Quaker George School in Philadelphia )! - and his uncle Alden (Briscoe - who also went to Quaker George School in Philadelphia before Harvard college), ~ Quakertarian & Veterinarian & cousin Annie (Brown in NE Oregon), George (Church) and Maitreyi (Mazumdar MD - both professors in Harvard Medical School too), Peter (Norvig, Stanford AI), Marlynn Wei MD JD (co-author of "The Harvard Medical School Guide to Yoga: 8 Weeks to Strength, Awareness, and Flexibility"), Doortje (Van Kooten), Pin/Sid Mazumdar HHS, Ed Smyth MD, All,
Yoga greetings ... and regarding restorative Yoga explorations at around 8 am Pacific Time on Saturday May 9, 2026, and potentially on Sunday May 10 too, all together independently... What 3 or so restorative Yoga poses could be done both on terra firma and in the Harbin Warm Pool at Harbin Hot Springs in northern California for the most extraordinary repeatable ONENESS experiences (due to the de facto relaxation response of the warm waters I posit)? And could this oneness experience be construed as samadi in the 8 limbs of Yoga, as the 8th limb? Read on ...
(Looked up Harbin Hot Springs' Restorative Yoga movements free video Youtube ... but didn't find anything, yet maybe we could make some videos of such Yoga movement explorations ... )

What are 3 or so restorative exploratory Chair Yoga poses we can do on Saturday on terra firma and hypothetically in the Harbin Warm Pool, say from the bench at the end of Harbin Warm Pool near the outer stairs, or BETTER from Home Bathtub on Saturday already, AND with time in a #RealsiticVirtualHarbin Hot springs (in digital glasses or a multimedia room / multimedia bathroom, with smartscreen tv panels on all sides of a room) ?
3 i
Chair pose works (and for mediation, or silent Quaker Meeting meditation, corporate with other people often but not always )
3 ii
Kneeling pose works too on this Harbin Warm Pose 'bench'
(or sitting in kneeling pose at home with one's buttocks on a block)
3 iii
And full lotus pose too, or Padmasana, where the crossed legs become the roots of the lotus pose helping one to stay settled on the Harbin Warm Pool bench in the warm waters ...
(Half Lotus , or easy cross legged pose on terra firma as intermediary steps to full lotus?)
3 A
WHY poses or asana both on terra firma and in the Harbin warm pool on its bench, or potentially in one's home bath tub, (when we can figure out a way to keep the water at 95 F- 98 F at home ... or in a continuing care centre for some of us which might have a warm pool with thermostat too for 95-98 Fahrenheit water .. body temperature) ?
3 A i
For meditation, or Dhyana, in 8 limbs of Yoga, which is the 7th limb of Yoga,
3 A ii
and for concentration or Dharana, the 6th limb of Yoga ... and
3 A iii
to riff in one's inner body, with the other limbs of Yoga too ...
4
Still seeking here to move forward the WUaS Yoga Hall and WUaS Academic Medical Center into 670 Ridgecrest Rd, Canyon 94516 and for Zoom call Yoga Halls, and then in a #RealisticVirtualEarth a #RealisticVirtualHarbin, and potentially in digital glasses or a WUaS Multimedia Room too ... on Saturdays at around 8am Pacific Time ... for feedback & communication circles, and questions and replies, and further restorative Yoga movement explorations all together and in community too ... so stay tuned ... I think this is in the works ...
Thoughts, questions, suggestions?
Warm regards, Yogically, Namaste,
Scott
