It's Yoga Time, Mama

Escape with a fun, healthy and relaxing Yoga class at the Affirmations Yoga Studio.

A yoga class for a hardworking Poway mother is desperately overdue. Yoga, the physical and mental disciplined exercises beginning in ancient India, is an excellent way to heal the worries and stress away resulting from a busy week and household. 

Frank Jude Boccio writing for yogajournal.com notes, “This (the) state of mind, taught in yoga and Buddhism, allows us to respond to the nonvirtuous deeds of others, and indeed, to all of life’s fluctuation, in such a way that we are, as Buddhist scholar Peter Harvey describes it, the opposite of the way James Bond likes his martini: stirred but not shaken.”

In other words, a yoga class just might be the calming fix you need to get away from the house and focus on your mind, body, and spirit. The enlightening of these elements within you as a woman could bring more to you as a mother.
