In this half-hour workshop, Erin will guide you in pranayama (breathing exercises) and meditation.  Pranayama practices clear the respiratory system, improve immune response, and relax the nervous system. Meditation strengthens concentration and calms the mind.  Learn how to regulate your body and mind through your breath, to help you sail through change and challenges.
