Spiritual Companioning/Direction

Presented by Bernadette Kavanagh-Stewart for those who are seeking deeper meaning and a spiritual basis in their lives.

 

Founded on a rich tradition of the Church, this is an opportunity to reflect on life with another person as soul friend or spiritual guide.  Time to chat, grow in relationship with God, to discern God’s call in life and relationships, and to deal with various influences – positive or negative – which affect one’s ability to give or receive love.

 

By appointment.  Contact Bernadette 5520 7242.  No Cost.

Yoga

Yoga means "union" and aims at the realization of the unity of our whole being. Usually taught as a sequence of poses and breath exercises. Yoga postures exercise the spine and stimulate the lymphatic system, helping to remove toxins from the body, which, if allowed to accumulate, may cause pain and stiffness in the muscles and joints. The physical postures, breathing exercises and meditation practices of yoga have been proven to reduce stress, lower blood pressure, regulate heart.  Sessions include breathing, stretches, postures, relaxation meditation.

 

Weekly Yoga Classes

Sessions involve breath work and postures followed by relaxation Meditation.

 

We are body mind spirit persons and a Yoga practice brings these levels into harmony.

 

Everyone welcome!
