The Spring Equinox marks the beginning of a period of renewal and growth. What has been lying dormant for winter is now ready to come to light. We see this in nature and within ourselves. This is a time when we feel a pull to do some “spring cleaning” in the structure of our lives by creating new habits. By tapping into the energy of the season, we can create a clear sense of what we want to accomplish and how to get there.

Join Julie Iatron for a 90-minute Yin Yoga workshop in Acton, Massachusetts that invites us to slow down, let go, and come to stillness as we shift into this period of growth.
