What is the Alive and Healthy Institute?
About Our Organization
Alive and Healthy of Dallas is a not-for-profit organization, founded in 2003, to teach individuals and families how to live a sustainable lifestyle – a systematic method of how to get healthy and stay healthy. The professional staff members and volunteers offer classes, literature and services to help you find a greater sense of peace and fulfillment by first improving the health of you and your family.
Our aim is to promote sustainable solutions for health problems; enhance self-awareness and spiritual well-being through the practice and teachings of yoga science and philosophy. Our programs are open to all and there are no membership requirements to enroll in classes and seminars.
We believe that with a clear, calm and tranquil mind, each and every person can learn to remove their personal blockades to happiness and light the flame of compassion in every human heart. Such a person of compassion sees the need and value for humanitarian service locally and globally, and acts accordingly. We participate in local, national and international outreach activities through presentations at businesses, schools, churchs, community health fairs, and employee assistance programs.
The spiritual director and founder of Alive and Healthy is Blair Lewis. Our staff are professionals in medicine, counseling, ayurveda and biofeedback, who are actively training in tantra, yoga and meditation. As a volunteer organization, our students and staff generously help us maintain our facility and accomplish the many teaching and administrative tasks that keep us active.
We offer classes, workshops, and a variety of other events and programs throughout the year. Using a private email list, we send out information on our classes, services and seminars to all who ask. Our programs are also posted online.
