Gentle Body/Mind/Spirit Yoga

(All Levels): This is a holistic practice using the physical postures of yoga to connect all parts of our being in union as we practice. Yoga means union. It is a mindful practice focusing on the breath, allowing the mind to relax and quiet, as we become stronger, more flexible, better aligned & balanced. We practice different breathing techniques to help us release stress and tension, allowing our breath to deepen and slow. I feel we, as a culture, are over focused on the action of doing and we need to focus more on releasing tension in the body/mind. The release is just as important, if not more important than the action.
