Heart-Centered Yoga with Christina Witter
Dive deep into your heart center. Find love and compassion for yourself and others as we open the 4th Chakra. In this class we will practice heart-opening yoga postures to activate our own inner healer and find devotion to love and serve others. Using our breath we will expand our lungs and cultivate prana (life force energy) in our heart center to re-energize our spirit.

The Yoga Room's Book Club
Our book selection for February is Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain by John Ratey, MD.
Did you know you can beat stress, lift your mood, fight memory loss, sharpen your intellect, and function better than ever simply by elevating your heart rate and breaking a sweat? The evidence is incontrovertible: Aerobic exercise physically remodels our brains for peak performance.In SPARK, John J. Ratey, M.D., embarks upon a fascinating journey through the mind-body connection, presenting startling research to prove that exercise is truly our best defense against everything from depression to ADD to addiction to menopause to Alzheimer's. Filled with amazing case studies (such as the revolutionary fitness program in Naperville, Illinois, which has put this school district first in the world of science test scores), SPARK is the first book to explore comprehensively the connection between exercise and the brain.

The Yoga Room's Autumn Equinox Yoga Retreat
Join us on our fall getaway to The Inn at the Rustic Gate, just outside Big Rapids, MI. The Inn is a place of welcome and calm, where retreatants are invited to take a step back from their every day lives, return to nature, to peace and quiet, and to get in touch with what feeds their soul. Just seven miles from Big Rapids, situated on 150 acres of woodlands, wetlands, rolling meadows, and a private pond, the Inn at the Rustic Gate is a sanctuary, a retreat, and a gateway to the truest aspects of ourselves.
View the 2011 Fall Yoga Retreat page for all the details and to sign up.
