Join Virginie & Kate for an Autumn Day Retreat: Balance & Reflection
“The cooler months are upon us! This is often when we tend to hibernate and become stagnant. Although, it is beneficial to slow down and nurture ourselves during this beautiful cooler season, it is equally as beneficial to refocus on our body, mind and soul. Autumn is a time for balance: Through our yoga practice, we can connect with our center and feeling grounded again. This is also a wonderful time to strengthen our immune system and therefore keeping healthy, stimulating our blood flow and lowering potential levels of stress or anxiety that we might be experiencing during this time. Come and join Kate & Virg on this special day, taking the time for yourself by nourishing your body, mind, heart and soul."
