Relax the body and soothe the mind from the comfort of your own home in a remote yoga experience. All you need is a chair with no arm rests and some comfy clothes or pajamas. Expect gentle mobility, breathing techniques, and mindful movement to improve sleep quality, reduce stress and enhance overall well-being.

Join in meditation, breath-work, balance, and mindful movements to reconnect your mind, body, and spirit. Class is for all levels, but poses will include a variety of positions requiring students to get on/off the floor. Instructor will provide modifications as needed. Learn some yoga tidbits to use in your future practice both on and off your mat. No equipment is needed but a yoga mat is encouraged. Consult with your physician prior to participating.

Why so many documents over such a long time; what “wrong(s)” did each presumably correct? If we stand on their shoulders and learn from their examples, how well did our founders prepare us to correct our own “wrongs”?
