With special guest speaker Julia Weber, JD, MSW via Zooom In this brief seminar we will look at a few key concepts from the Vedic Tradition and the Yoga Sutras, and how we can apply them to our personal circumstances.

We will bring awareness to these regions while moving through gentle asana, honing the radical skills of grounding, calming, and opening. This exploration of the body is designed to help sustain your activism through physical well-being and mental health.
