December Workshop: 
Strong Roots: 
Yoga Alignment 
with Erin Sweeney

Sun., Dec. 7th
1-3:30 pm
$50 (no discount)

A Valuable Workshop---not to be missed!
This workshop is packed full of useful information for both yoga practitioners and teachers.  Most yoga classes are based off of the sun salutation.  In this class, you will be introduced to completely new
different ways to get in and out of classic yoga poses. These methods come from the tradition of Iyengar Yoga. Besides getting a whole new set of tools for your yoga practice, you will also learn to use the moon salutation with these techniques.  We will delve deep into alignment and anatomy in major joint areas and discuss modifications and safety.  You will certainly learn tools that will protect your joints for a lifetime of yoga! 
NOTE: This workshop fulfills the one-yoga YTT alignment based / Iyengar Style workshop requirement.

Live Intentionally!
 
65 Challenges for a Healthier, Happier life!
My sister, Julia's friend Cara, wrote this book and I just has to share it with you! ~Christine. Here is a message from Cara:


I'm really excited to tell you that my first book has been published!
This book is based in large part on the blog I've been writing for six years (Kid Friendly Organic Life). It is also the story of our family's journey to a healthier, happier life that began when Ian was first diagnosed with alopecia areata eight years ago. Each chapter contains stories, ideas, recipes, and challenges focused on a different aspect of living intentionally with topics like adding more superfoods to your diet, cleaning your home with all-natural cleaners, or creating more meaningful holidays. The book offers inspiration plus practical advice and  simple changes for anyone who wants to live a more intentional healthy life. 

You can see and buy the book now on Amazon by clicking here (If you do read it, I'd LOVE it if you could give it a review. That would mean the world to me.)

Thank you and Happy Holidays from Liberty Yoga!
