April
 2015



The month of April is one of our favourite times of the year! There are many reasons for this but mostly
 it's because we truly appreciate the sweet scents of spring and the gorgeous blossoms all around us! This month we are excited to offer Yoga Nidra Meditation twice a week and we will be hosting a Community Potluck and Clothing Swap!

Many people have a Spring Cleaning ritual where they clean their homes from top to bottom. Houses are our places of physical dwelling but our true homes are where our souls reside. Just as we cleanse the house of unwanted items, we need to cleanse the body of unwanted toxins and the mind of stale thoughts. Yoga reveals your body's infinite energy and grants the mind a glorious freedom which then allows the body to recharge and let go of stress. Thank-you for  for your conscious awareness that keeps our community prospering.
