Join Scott for this revitalizing yoga series designed to support neurocognitive vitality.
This 9-session series combines Āyurveda principles, diverse movement, breathing practices and a scientifically validated sound and mudra practice called Kirtan Kriya to promote brain function, emotional balance, and stress resilience.
Research has shown that yoga may help preserve gray matter, enhance functional brain connectivity and repair, and reduce inflammation—key elements for supporting memory, mood, and overall cognitive health.
Whether you're looking to feel sharper, calmer, or simply more centered, this series offers a nourishing space for your body and mind.
Plus, two Question & Reflection sessions: two opportunities to ask questions outside of class time to gain clarity and deepen your understanding of the poses and practices.

Scott Blossom
Scott’s deep study of yoga includes training with master teacher Shandor Remete (Sundernath) and decades of study with Āyurveda expert Dr. Robert Svoboda. As a Licensed Acupuncturist and educator, he integrates movement, breath, and awareness with the principles of traditional healing systems. His teaching balances precise alignment with intuitive flow, helping students connect to the intelligence of their own bodies.
In all his classes, Scott focuses on subtle body awareness, incorporating both modern biomechanics and neuromuscular development as well as traditional energetic teachings on marma points from Āyurveda and the acupuncture channels of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This emphasis enhances both the external and internal expression of postures and breathing practices, creating a more integrated and transformative experience.
In addition to clinical practice, Scott has spent years developing yoga-based wellness programs, including work with cancer and hospice patients, and serving on the faculty of the Kripalu School of Āyurveda since 2008. He is also trained in Dr. Dale Bredesen’s ReCODE Protocol, an innovative approach to cognitive health that blends modern neuroscience with holistic lifestyle medicine.
Scott invites students to cultivate potency and agility—learning to listen deeply, adapt skillfully, and embody well-being from the inside out.
We have tiered, class-equitable,
pay-what-supports-you pricing.
We believe that pricing can and should be a joyful act of service that creates stronger communities. Our model is inspired by the Green Bottle Model from Worts + Cunning.
We also want to help to create a conscious, intentional and value-aligned culture of payment.
Please read the following criteria and determine which price is appropriate for you:
- Highest price: You have access to financial security, own property, or have personal savings; if you are able to pay for "wants" and spend little time worrying about securing necessities in your life; if you have economic privilege and power in our community, this price is for you.
By choosing this price, you are “paying it forward” and contributing to a more equitable world.
- Middle price: You may be paying off debt or working to build savings, but you also have access to steady income. You do NOT struggle to meet basic needs such as food, shelter, medical care, child care, etc.
Making this investment might mean you might have to cut back on some discretionary spending in your life (such as going out to dinner, buying coffee, buying a new outfit, or going on vacation), but the sacrifice is short-term, and will not harm you in the long term.
- Lowest price: You have access to basic needs such as food, housing, and childcare, though sometimes it may feel difficult. You are able to save money/month each week to be able to pay for the program.
Reflecting honestly about your financial situation and paying at a level you can afford helps us to grow a healthy and sustainable community. It also respects the work of Scott and the Doctor Blossom team.
We also offer Equity Scholarships: opportunities for those who even the lowest tier price is truly prohibitive, but who would benefit from the program. To apply for a scholarship, please send a paragraph about your financial need & your motivation to participate in this course to [email protected]
Those who are from traditionally marginalized communities–such as Black, Indigenous, People of Color, LGBTQIA+, disabled, living in countries with an unfavorable exchange rate, and/or whose first language is other than English–are especially encouraged to apply.
This is our way of investing in a world where everybody gets to optimize their health and so that we can decouple health from the effects of financial inequity.
Access to this course will be available for 4.5 months after you enroll.
Please reach out to [email protected] if you have any questions.
