| Miami,
FL � November 2003 � World-renowned for its innovative approaches to wellness,
The
Spa at Doral announces the addition of the East Coast�s first Chopra
Center for Well Being, founded by renowned philosopher and mind, body medicine
expert Deepak Chopra and an Ayurvedic medicine expert Dr. David Simon.
Acknowledged as a world leader and pioneer in the field of mind body medicine,
Deepak Chopra, M.D. continues to transform the meaning of health. For a
very special engagement, Dr. Chopra and his colleague Dr. David Simon will
celebrate the grand opening of the Chopra Center at the renowned Doral
Golf Resort and Spa in Miami, Florida on November 21, 2003.
Dr.
Deepak Chopra, renowned philosopher, health expert, is a champion of what
many consider to be �New Age� healing and health. He founded The Chopra
Center with Dr. David Simon, the Center�s medical director, in 1996 in
La Jolla, California, to help people achieve what he calls �a lively balance
of body, mind and spirit.� Good health requires a balance and integration
between the environment, the physical body, the mind, the intellect, the
ego, the soul and the spirit. This lifelong dream is now being expanded
at the Doral Golf Resort and Spa. Eastern philosophy became popular on
the west coast and is now moving to the East coast as the Doral is at the
forefront of this movement.
As
a result, Chopra Center guests enjoy the full benefits of the Spa at Doral
and resort guests receive special access to The Chopra Center�s highly
acclaimed programs.
�We
are extremely excited to have the Chopra Center opening at the Doral, as
our guests will enjoy the benefits of the center�s holistic healing all
while indulging in the resort�s soothing natural environment that will
provide guests the ultimate wellness experience,� says Tom Manno, Vice
President and General Manager of the Doral Golf Resort and Spa.
Guests
will (1) learn effective ways to embrace fear, calm anxiety and respond
to life�s uncertainties, (2) access the healing and transformational power
of the mind/body connection (3) achieve balance in their life (4) experience
Yoga and Mindfulness Meditation practices and (5) rekindle passion in their
lives.
Experts
in the conventional and complementary medical fields come together at The
Chopra Center to share their talents. Under Simon�s direction, they combine
the best of traditional medicine with natural (Ayurvedic) healing traditions
in a variety of individual and group programs. These include medical consultations,
therapeutic body treatments (massage and spa treatments), health workshops,
meditation instruction, hospital program development and corporate training
courses, all of which incorporate mind/body techniques to help guests reduce
stress, take charge of their overall health, embrace wellness and promote
their own longevity and human potential.
Leave
everyday demands at the door and rediscover peace and perfection, health
and happiness. Indulge and pamper yourself while you learn the keys to
preventative wellness. The Chopra Center at the Doral will host a number
of classes focusing on �Perfect Health� and �Primordia Sound Meditation�
