Yin Meditation with

The practice of Yin Yoga is designed as a pathway into your connective tissue. Much of our life experiences - trauma, loss, heartbreak, etc. - are stored in our bodies - particularly in our connective tissue resulting in tightness, restriction, fascial buildup, etc. Yin is so powerful because it offers us the safe space, by holding supported postures close to the ground for an extended length of time to release physical limitation, and open the door to emotional freedom. Pre-register here using the Mind Body Scheduler.

Mark Warford - the force of nature behind the garden - expects that by the end of the year it will have produced more than 1,000 pounds of vegetables for the food pantry in addition to food for the school cafeteria and sale at the Delmar Farmers Market.
Fantastic teamwork!
