Soothing music will be offered throughout the hour long yoga practice to provide a healing soundscape for all participants. ****FEATURED HERBS:Monarda: also known as bee balm or bergamot, can be used internally to treat colds, headaches, and gastric disorders, It can lower fevers, soothe sore throats, and relieve menstrual pain.
