YOGA AS LIVITY

In the Rastafari and Ethiopian tradition, the body is a temple. Morning Yoga at the Healing Grove honors this livity (life force) through conscious movement, breath, and stillness. Our sessions integrate gentle vinyasa flows, yin postures, and pranayama (breath control) — all offered in a space free from competition, open to every body, every ability.

Mats are provided for the first 100 attendees each session. Come as you are, leave feeling rooted and restored.
