Chris Connolly, RN, BSN, owner of "Living My Dream Yoga," will lead a 4-week series of yoga classes. Classes will take place from 11am to noon over four consecutive Wednesdays -- October 4, October 11, October 18 and October 25 -- in the library's Meeting Room. Classes are designed for both those who are new to yoga and regular practitioners. 

Classes will include a 40-minute practice which includes a warm welcome, a centering practice that includes breath work, stretching that will flow into yoga poses, a transition down to gentle stretching, and then the final pose of relaxation. After a 5-minute relaxation, participants will return to a seated position (chair or mat) and flow right into a 15-minute meditation. Connolly, a retired 43-year registered nurse, is a certified 500-hour Kripalu Yoga Teacher, Level 1 iRest Yoga Nidra Teacher, and Reiki II Practitioner. 

Register using the October 4 calendar listing. (Once you're registered for one session, you're registered for the entire 4-week series.) While chairs will be available, registrants are encouraged to bring their own yoga mat, beach towel, blanket or cushion to sit/lay on. This series is sponsored by the Tewksbury Police Department and Prevention Partners Northern Middlesex.
