Happy ! It is important to drink enough water to keep your body hydrated, especially in the summertime. Try adding some lemon or fruit to your water to make it more appealing. Meditation is also a great way to relax and take time for yourself.

Happy ! The month of August is National Wellness Month. During the summer, it’s easy to let the sun and fun make us forget healthier habits. But, summer is also the perfect time to go outside and take a walk, grill healthy veggies and protein on your barbecue, or swim in a pool!

“Change is the only Constant in life” Heraclitus. Transition & change is difficult for us. We often rush through the journey to get to the destination without taking in all that presents itself to us. We resist change & stay firmly in the familiar. This practice will help us BE in the present, paying attention to sensations in the body while embracing the practice of rest. Please bring a blanket. Join us on Sunday, August 11th from 6:30pm-7:30pm.  Register to reserve your spot!

Yoga is about the union of the mind, body & soul. We will explore finding inner peace & enlightenment by looking deep into our souls. Through yoga, we look to connect to the true self or divine essence also known as your soul. Patanjali's yoga sutras teach us that liberation is found through the 8 limbs of yoga. We will cultivate a deeper connection with your inner self 💜💜💜
