Here at B4BC, we believe that Yoga Heals. We strive to promote well-being inside and out. Exercise, a healthy diet, and a positive mind are all necessary parts of a balanced lifestyle. One fantastic way to help achieve this balance is through yoga.
The power of yoga on overall health has been known since the practice first began 5,000 years ago. It can aid in stress reduction, improved flexibility, balance and strength, weight loss, and chronic health conditions such as cancer, depression, pain, high blood pressure, anxiety and insomnia. Studies have shown that women with breast cancer who participated regularly in yoga classes were more relaxed, experienced less pain and fatigue, had better quality of life, and were half as likely to be depressed than their counterparts (yogaforcancer.com).
Yoga Heals is a B4BC program that seeks to promote health and wellness through yoga while fundraising for the B4BC Survivorship Fund in local communities. Join us Saturday for Pause for Peaks, a Vinyasa yoga workshop and studio open house, hosted by Sangha Yoga Shala. Owner Alana Kessler understands the healing powers of yoga and will be sharing her practice and insight with us. If you can’t make class, drop by for the studio open house, and enter to win great raffle prizes and have a chance to sample products from our awesome sponsors. Proceeds from Pause for Peaks to benefit the B4BC Survivorship Fund. For more details, check out our flyer below and our event page right here.
