Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga S1 Review: Market Elasticity
Posted: at 5:51 am
The ThinkPad Yoga S1 is a well-made business convertible with a beautiful flexible display, but it lacks the connectivity to be a true enterprise force.
The Lenovo Yoga line has become quite popular, offering consumers the convenience of a tablet with the stability of a laptop. Now Lenovo wants to afford that same level of flexibility to its enterprise-grade users with the Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga S1.
Outfitted with a magnesium alloy build and equipped with an Intel Core i5-4200U CPU and a 128GB SSD the notebook features the durability and performance expected of a business notebook, all while retaining the flexibility of the 360-dgree hinge design that the Yoga namesake has become known for.
However, offering the allure of a consumer ultrabook with the practical needs of a business notebook is no small task. Can the Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga S1 walk that fine line? Or will the device stretch itself too think? Read the full review to find out.
Similar to other ThinkPad devices the Yoga S1 employs a high-quality black matte magnesium alloy build. The understated black protective surface is smooth and cool to the touch, making the device both comfortable to use and easy to transport. Of course in true ThinkPad fashion the alloy construct isnt only there for superficial appeal; as it affords the device top-notch durability, having passed MIL-SPEC tests for pressure, extreme temperatures, dust and vibrations.
However, unlike the traditional squared Lenovo ThinkPad T Series design, the Yoga S1 sports a softer curved look more akin to the Lenovo ThinkPad S431. The aesthetic much like the rest of the notebook looks to parse the divide between being a practical business tool and a stylish ultrabook.
More in line with the typical Yoga design, the ThinkPad Yoga S1 features the iconic 360-degree display hinge, allowing the notebook to easily transform between the standard notebook, tablet, tent and stand modes. New to the Yoga S1, the molding around the keyboard raises to create a flat surface when display hinge passes 180 degrees. While it may seem like a rather small feature, the flat surface does make the device more comfortable to handle in tablet mode. As with other Yoga devices the majority of the notebooks buttons (sans a Windows button located below the devices display) have been positioned along the right side of the devices chassis. From there you can access the power button, independent volume controls or lock the displays screen orientation.
Measuring in at 12.5 x 8.7 x 0.76 and weighing in at 3.5 pounds, the Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga S1 offers a form factor conducive to travel, but its not quite as portable as some of its competitors. Devices such as the 3.35 pound Dell XPS 12 (0.79), the 2 pound Microsoft Surface Pro 2 (0.53) or even the 3.06 pound IdeaPad Yoga 2 (0.61) offer more portable form factors. However the small hit to portability is a small price to pay for the premium durable build employed by the ThinkPad Yoga S1.

Yoga Therapy Provides Safe Relief for Depression and Anxiety with Health Promoting Side-Effects
Posted: at 5:51 am
(PRWEB) February 18, 2014
Integrated Health Yoga Therapy faculty member and LifeForceYoga Healing Institute founder Amy Weintraubs pioneering work in the field of yoga and mental health has recently found new expression in a series of online videos, aimed at empowering health professionals, yoga therapists, and patients themselves by diligently exploring the healing potential of yoga for depression and anxiety, and viewable at http://yogafordepression.com/section/articles/video-articles/.
Included in these videos is the story of Amys own struggle with depression and subsequent recovery made possible through the combination of a meditation practice started earlier in life and the subsequent adoption of a Kripalu yoga practice. She embarked in 1989 upon a passionate exploration of yogas healing possibilities. This culminated in the cautious, highly individualized, uniquely empowering approach that today defines LifeForces evidence-based yoga protocols for managing mood.
Amy Weintraubs list of accomplishments in the field of yoga and mental health are highly impressive and can be viewed more comprehensively at the IHYT faculty page at http://www.ihyt.org#!faculty/cjg9. Briefly, Amy has studied with yoga masters and meditation teachers in the US and India and is a much sought-after speaker and workshop-leader at conferences and professional trainings around the world. Those inspired by the online videos might look into a free subscription to LifeForce Yoga Research and News at http://yogafordepression.com/section/research-newsletter/ or Amys two acclaimed books on the subject. Yoga for Depression (Broadway Books, 2004) was the first book written on yoga and mental health, both a highly personal account of Amys own healing process and a thorough exposition of why we suffer, why yoga works, and which aspects work. Yoga Skills for Therapists (W.W. Norton, 2012) was the first book on the subject aimed specifically at health care professionals, and provides a practical, hands-on guide enabling therapists to master basic yoga techniques and customize them to patients specific healing processes. Also available are educational materials inspired by the LifeForce evidence-based yoga protocols such as Amys award-winning LifeForce Yoga to Beat the Blues DVDs.
Amys work is meticulously researched, and she continues to be involved in scientific studies on the efficacy of yoga in managing mood. Independent studies bear out her own. In 2013 a Duke University study looked comprehensively at previous trials to systematically examine the evidence for efficacy of yoga in the treatment of selected major psychiatric disorders. They published their findings in Frontiers in Affective Disorders and Psychiatric Research, concluding that there is evidence yoga provides benefits in the treatment of depression, among other disorders.
The LifeForce yoga protocols shouldnt be confused with yoga practice itself. Many aspects of Amys approach are rarely found in regular yoga classes. LifeForce integrates a rigorous application of modern research and innovation with a wide range of yogic practices grounded in thousands of years of ancient research and innovation. Some of these include pranayama and kriya breathing techniques, hand mudras, simple mantras, various forms of meditation, intention practice, yoga nidra, guided imagery and affirmation, and of course customized applications of the asanas. All of these potential tools, according to Amy, must be chosen carefully and attuned to each unique healing process, as expressed in an interview with Yoga Teacher Magazine at http://www.yogateachermagazine.com/content/amy-weintraub :
Its important to be present and [. . .] attuned to that individual. Were not just using a formula [. . .] We create that safe and sacred container together.
Amy Weintraubs approach not only arms the therapist with a multitude of resources to customize the therapy but also empowers the patient to take control of their own healing process:
So it is not about fixing but about giving people tools to empower themselves, putting them in the drivers seat, taking off the experts hat and just being there as a holding container, creating that safe container through ritual , through permission, through empowerment.
Amy Weintraubs videos comprise another fine tool for therapists looking to empower people to empower themselves. Amys evidence-based yoga protocols for mood managements are appropriate for integration into a wide range of healthcare and yoga therapy settings, and their place in our curriculum constitutes just one of the many unique functions of the IHYT approach to yoga therapy.
