COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
When many people think of Yoga they think of Hatha yoga which is the physical exercise part of a yoga practice. There are all types of yoga, we will  be focusing on  the practice of Mindfulness.

Mindfulness is paying careful attention to what is happening now, and noticing when your attention drifts away. When we’re distracted or stressed, we can slip into problematic emotional states without realizing what’s happening.
