This yoga practice provides the opportunity to relax and de-stress as well as to stretch, strengthen, and balance your body. The practice begins with a meditative centering followed by warm-ups, a posture flow, and a restful final relaxation. We conclude with a closing and some time for connecting with your fellow yogis.

The yoga postures are led at a moderate intensity. Lower intensity modifications are always offered and there is absolutely no obligation to do any posture. The goal is to make the class accessible to beginners as well as experienced practitioners. Listening to your body is the key to safety, especially in this online format.

Many people think gentle yoga is too easy and not an effective form of fitness. Think again! You can practice yoga in ways that are both active and gentle at the same time.

Come enjoy the many known benefits of yoga through:

• the practice of active yet gentle, rhythmic movement
• held yoga poses and vinyasa flow (moving from pose to pose via the breath)
  
• pranayam (breath work)
• relaxation and meditation
  

In this well-rounded class, Celeste LeMieux, 500 hr certified Kripalu Yoga Instructor, provides clear instructions and modifications, making it accessible and beneficial to practitioners of all ages and stages of yoga practice and life.

You will leave class feeling both stretched and strengthened while also feeling more calm and relaxed. This class is the perfect mid-week reset for body and mind. Come see how less really can be more!

"Breastmilk contains a type of antibody called secretory immunoglobulin A (IgA) that provides passive immunity to the breastfed infant. This is especially helpful in the first few months of the baby’s life, when the baby’s immune system is still immature and not yet able to mount a response to common viruses." - Dr. Rosemarie Gordon, Pediatrician in MIT Medical's Primary Care.
