Clear & Calm – How Yoga Can Support A Life Without Alcohol
Select Monthly Fridays @ 6 – 7:30pm in the Mass. Ave. Level Studio unless otherwise noted
w/ Julie McKay, E-RYT 500 of Revolution Community Yoga and Fitness in Acton, Massachusetts
Register w/ regular class passes
UPCOMING CLASSES:
Do you wrestle with your relationship with alcohol?
Have you already begun to make some positive changes?
Would you benefit from being with others who are “in the same boat”?
Ponder the possibility that you already have what it takes to clear your mind and calm your body. Your yoga practice has the potential to scaffold you in the strength you need to make the choices that will serve you best. We will examine thoughts, sensations, and cravings in the body and brain, as well as social norms and default behaviors. Through a gentle practice, Julie will bring light to new ways of allowing your practice to anchor you and change how you manage these challenges as they arise. All levels welcome. There will be time at the end of class for seltzer and conversation.
