Yoga for Detoxification - Begins Monday,  April 14 at 6 pm and Thursday, April 17 at 6 pm

Although perspiring is a great way to detoxify the body, the yoga tradition offers many asana and other health practices to help clear away toxins. Not all of these involve intense sweating! In this 6 week series we will look at the yogic science of detoxification and choose practices which target the digestive organs to help clear away the excess accumulated during winter. We will also use practices which detoxify the energy body (pranaymaya kosha) and mind. Dietary, fasting and simple cleansing practices which you can do on your own will also be introduced. Spring is the perfect time to detox! Join Kaoverii for this series and clarify your body and mind. To sign up, email Kaoverii for the Monday night class, and call One Center Yoga for the Thursday night class (828) 225-1904. Space is limited!
