YOGA                                                      

Yoga is an ancient Indian practice.  The word means "union."  The practice of yoga can unite our mind, body, and spirit so we can experience balance and good health.  It involves exercise through the use of physical postures (asanas), breathing and meditation.  Yoga is now an integral part of stress-reduction programs in health facilities across the U.S. Research indicates yoga can reduce stress and fatigue, lower blood pressure, and aid in relaxation; improve concentration, tone muscles, increase energy and flexibility, sustain physical balance, enhance overall health as well as mental and emotional well-being.  Yoga is an excellent adjunct therapy to our behavioral health programs as both encourage methods of relaxation and greater self-awareness.

Our presentation of Hatha Yoga is spiritually neutral.  We also offer Christian Yoga as an alternative for those who seek to promote their Christian spirituality.
