Food Matters

Hi all you yogis and yoginis out here! As you all know yoga is about making conscious educated decisions. Well, I stumbled upon a movie trailer for "Food Matters." I had never seen nor heard of this movie before, but it looks VERY INFORMATIVE! I will be downloading and watching it. Please take the time to watch the trailer and if you are still interested you can download the movie from foodmatters.tv for just $4.95!! Or buy it on their site for $24.95. Let me know what you think!

Namaste, Tricia

Another Great Way to Recycle

Clothing, Jewelry, and Handbag Exchange at Serenity Now Yoga
Tuesday, May 5th at 1:00PM

Doing some spring cleaning? If you have anything nice that just doesn’t suit you or fit you anymore, bring it by Serenity Now for our First Annual Clothing Exchange. Here are the rules:


1.You are responsible for everything you bring. You must cart anything of yours still remaining at the end of the event to Goodwill (right across the street). Please don’t leave anything at the studio!

2.Please only bring something you think someone might want. Nothing dirty, stinky, or gross. Clean and folded clothing only, please!

3.Please give (or try to give) as much as you take. The idea is to reduce and reuse, so if you want to leave with a bagful of items, give a bagful of items away first!

4.Have fun!
