The SevaLight Retreat Centre will be offering their Pure Meditative Peace & Mindfulness class over three Monday evenings beginning Nov. 4. This class provides you with the tools to focus your mind, develop concentration, relax the body and find a deeper sense of stillness and peace. It offers simple yet effective ways to look after your energy and be more in charge of how you feel physically, mentally and emotionally. The next session of Hatha Yoga classes will begin on Wednesday, Nov. 6 (advanced) and Thursday, Nov. 7 (beginner/intermediate) with both classes running from 5:45 to 7 p.m. This form of yoga focuses on moving the body with the breath with full awareness and helps greatly to enhance posture, release tension and develop strength. For more information or to reserve your place, please contact the centre at 604-740-0898 or [email protected]. The centre is a not-for-profit incorporated society.
