Library Talk - May 1st

On May 1st, I was invited to do a talk and introductory demo on yoga at the Jefferson Vassie D. Write Memorial Library. This is the local community library in Jefferson Park. I started the talk by asking the group what they thought yoga was and if they had ever done it. We also talked about the health benefits of yoga. Then I went into how breath is so important not only when doing yoga, but also in every day life especially when dealing with stress. We did a couple of easy breathing exercises together and a few very simple stretches. I just wanted the people to know that you don't have to be a pretzel to do yoga. It was definitely a good experience for me.
