Celebrate the Summer Solstice with the Dogwood Team June 21st!

Join the Dogwood Team on Wednesday June 21 as we hold space for these inquiries in a special Mindful Movement class to mark the Summer Solstice. 

We will gather in community to celebrate this day of the longest light in the Northern Hemisphere. Throughout human history and across cultures and societies, this day has been honored and celebrated globally. This day is a reminder that we are all connected by the rhythms of the Earth, of the Sun, and of the seasons. Even those who live in the Southern Hemisphere experience the opposite but equal phenomenon: the longest day of dark. Thus, we are living on a planet that is inherently balanced, always oscillating between opposite but equal forces. 

Taking Yoga off the Mat to Sit Well

Taking Yoga off the Mat to Sit Well

You don't always need to roll out your mat to do your yoga practice. The tools and techniques of yoga can be practiced in your everyday life and they can help you find good posture in your daily activities. Practicing sitting well in everyday life such as driving, working, eating or relaxing on the couch can help reduce stiffness and pain in the lower back and hips.
