Nurturing your Mind, Body & Spirit through Yoga

Learn, Laugh & Love

The power of yoga is that it operates on all levels – mental, physical, and spiritual. Studies have shown that the three are connected and that a change in one can affect a change in the others.


Yoga has enormous potential to influence not only mental and physical strength but also empowerment and confidence.


Join JFS Therapist and Certified Yoga Instructor, Lauren Glass, and learn how Yoga may help bring calm and mindfulness to your life.

1 p.m. – 1:30 p.m., February 18
