This week is all about restoration, or coming to the mat to relax, renew, and recharge. Our Sanskrit focus is one of my favorite: AUM SHANTI, or the Cosmic Yes to Peace!!! Our mudra is called the “Realization”, and makes us aware of ourselves first of all, and then the realization that we are connected to everyone and everything. A single word term for what this mudra provides is the energy of “Unity”. The Yoga-Hike to Santa Rosa plateau is this Friday, April 11th, from 11:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m., and Sophie will be offering a Healthy Back workshop on May 3rd, from 2-3:30 p.m. @ a cost of $20. We can’t wait to see you on the mat!!!—Namaste’, Deb
