About this Event
Cathy and Joy are joining forces once again to bring you a special Spring workshop this April! ?
Join us for a transformative journey into the heart of spring as we delve into the harmonious blend of yoga and journaling. In this immersive workshop, we will explore the essence of the season, focusing on themes of renewal, grounding, balance, and stability.
Come for the support of grounding yourself back to your body to then develop better alignment between your body and mind. The journaling part will be focused on self-empathy, based on a more sensitive connection to your body intelligence. This will be enhanced by a simple and powerful guided meditation on the Alexander Technique to set the intention for this season.
