Join us for Yoga in the Sanctuary: Sundays, 4:30 - 5:15 pm

Led by: Eileen Roehr, MSN, RNCS, RYT

Join fellow UUs and friends for Yoga in the Sanctuary, Sundays from 4:30 to 5:15 pm. Whether you are experienced or just want to try yoga, you are welcome! There is no need to commit to a series — just come when you can. Yoga in the Sanctuary is open to all ages. Those younger than teenage are invited to attend with a parent.

The word Yoga in its literal and deepest translation is to yoke, or unite, with God. The asanas/postures are the helpmate or a stepping-stone to that bigger picture of being connected to a higher source. More often than not we will practice Yoga just for its physical benefits of having toned muscles, flexibility, and mental clarity. If we add a little meditation to our daily life and practice though, it will bring about a deeper sense of who we are. Yoga is a delightful avenue to relax and to enhance your spiritual journey.

Instructor Eileen Roehr has been a member of UUCR over 10 years and has taught yoga since 2006, to children, teens, and adults. Her teaching has been influenced by the Anasara Style, Dr. Baxter Bells’s “yoga for healthy aging” and many other teachings. She particularly enjoys individualized instruction. Eileen is a psychiatric clinical nurse specialist and registered yoga teacher.
