🎃 Happy Halloween from the AMAL Wellness Centre Team! 👻
We are VERY Excited to announce our AMAL Wellness Centre Fall Yoga Series.
For more information and to register: https://amalnl.ca/events/
Classes offered by Shelley Bryant, Yoga Alliance Registered RYT-200 Teacher
Have you ever been guided in a meditation at end of a yoga class? It’s a nice way to relax and let go of some stress. But wouldn’t you like to discover how… and why… you get so keyed up to begin with?
Learning how to practice meditation on your own develops self awareness, self knowledge, agency and equanimity.
Sure…putting your stress in someone else’s hands ...feels good for the moment.
But understanding where it came from and being able to work with it no matter what each moment holds… feels good for a lifetime.
This fall you have two ways to attend this 6-week series, along with two different start dates and times to choose from!
Get started on your own profound path this fall:
