December 2017 Happenings
at Liberty Yoga
|
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah & Kwanzaa to all!
At this time of the year we celebrate with family and friends with love and generosity. It is a joyful time of year and can also be a difficult time. We learn in yoga that life is filled with suffering and happiness. How can we spread more joy in the world? We can begin with ourselves. Take time this month to come to yoga classes. Quiet your mind, relax and rejuvenate your body, reduce the stresses of everyday with deep breathing and a focus inward. Then take a look outside of yourself to help others.
This month and all year let's help others:

MELT
with Monique and Erin
Great News! Monique is already certified as a MELT Level 1 & 2 instructor and a Neurostrength instructor! Erin is certified as a MELT level 1 instructor. Both are so excited to try new techniques to help you relieve pain, achieve more, and find optimal posture!
 
Why MELT?
This is a gentle and pleasant self acupressure technique. It relieves "stuck stress" in the body that comes with repetitive movements or working in a desk job. It is one of the most effective ways to gently relieve chronic pain and to improve posture!
