Breath and relax after the hoildays.  Set aside one hour a week for you.  This is an opportunity to live a more spacious, grounded and creative life through mindfulness practice.  Breathwork, meditation, philosophy and some gentle movement will be included.

Practice will continue and expand for those continuing, yet new registrants are welcome and will find it easy to fit in.

Dress comfortably and join us for this series of four Tuesdays.  You'll appreciate this truly transformative experience.
