Keeping Stress at Bay with Yoga

Ahhhhh, one of my favorite things to do, and by far the best way to get my head cleared is to practice yoga. Very few things have been continuously practiced for over 5000 years with continued success. The practice proves that the mind, body, and spirit are healthier. Whether you are looking to get a workout or to stretch and breathe, practicing this age-old art is an excellent way to move your body. I am relatively new at it and my daughter has only practiced a few times and we have found a tremendous amount of yoga and meditation classes in our home town and at UNF respectively. Haveuheard that UNF offers a bunch of classes in the Student Wellness Center? They offer the following classes which are all 55 minutes.

  • Acro Yoga – This class will teach you how to fly, base, spot, stretch, and strengthen your muscles all while doing various poses.
  • Mixed Level Yoga – This class is designed for a variety of levels from beginners to more advanced students. A modification will be introduced for more complex poses for beginners.
  • Power Yoga – Is an energizing, cardio workout that focuses on strength, stamina, balance, and core.
  • Relaxing Yoga (One of my favorite classes). Stretch and move through traditional postures at a relaxed pace. Mindful practice with guided breathing and relaxing poses. No prior experience is necessary.
  • Yogi Abs & Arm Balances – Building a stronger core with ab exercises and fun, challenging arm balances.
