Cary Bayer, a New York- and Florida-based life coach and author who has worked with award-winning actors and other notables in the entertainment industry, will visit SkyBaby Yoga to lead a special workshop, Star Wars Yoga, the Force & You, on July 9 from noon to 2 p.m.

Bayer, who wrote “The Yoga of Entertainment: Higher Consciousness in Pop Culture” and “Higher Self Meditations,” will present techniques to align the consciousness with “the force” that was introduced to mass culture in George Lucas’s “Star Wars” saga. A former trainer of Transcendental Meditation teachers and the founder of Higher Self Healing Meditation, Bayer will also discuss how to meditate effortlessly, directed by the Force. “The class will also retrain your consciousness and speech so that the Force is behind you,” says SkyBaby Yoga Director Melia Marzollo. “What’s more, it will reveal the power that comes with commitment. And finally, the workshop will discuss some of the superhuman abilities taught to Luke Skywalker by Yoda that were outlined in the ancient Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, which are also latent in you.”

Bayer has worked with Oscar winners Alan Arkin and Pietro Scalia, Emmy winners David Steinberg and Judy Henderson, and Quality Inns.

The cost of the class is $25 when paid by July 6, or $35 after. SkyBaby Yoga is located at 75 Main St., Cold Spring, NY. For more info, call 845.265.4444 or visit SkyBabyYoga.com.
