YOGA/EXERCISE<br />

Mary Jo Ricketson, Instructor<br />

We all have within us the potential to experie<strong>nce</strong> an<br />

optimal state of well-being in mind and body. This<br />

state can be realized through the work of Mind-Body<br />

Training, which includes deep breathing exercises,<br />

cardio-respiratory training, core and strength work,<br />

yoga postures and meditation. The exercises are<br />

performed mindfully to increase our awareness of the<br />

inherent and vital life energy within. We can know and<br />

feel bala<strong>nce</strong>, strength, endura<strong>nce</strong>, flexibility, focused<br />

attention and coordination. Through these exercises,<br />

we can also learn to let go of unneeded tension and<br />

tightness to feel renewed and relaxed. Wear loose,<br />

comfortable clothing and bring a yoga mat and water<br />

bottle to class. Athletic shoes can be worn for the<br />

warm-up and strength training portions of the class.<br />
