Fall is our favorite season at Fine Balance Wellness. It is a season to reflect on previous growth and return to our roots.
Last month marked the official designation of September as National Yoga Month! Yoga Month celebration events were held across the country and we attended the gathering on September 7th at the Metropolitan Pavilion in New York City. We participated in some insightful seminars about using yoga therapeutically, specifically for breast cancer survivors and for the prevention of osteoporosis. The breast cancer survivor session was led by Tari Pristner, breast cancer survivor and yoga teacher leading classes for breast cancer survivors at OM Yoga. We also had the opportunity to hear from and practice with one of our favorite mentors in the yoga community, Dr. Timothy McCall, author of Yoga As Medicine, who spoke about and led a practice session on preventing and working with osteoporosis.
We also spent some time with our good friend, Celina Miller, Publisher of the new magazine YogaMom, which hit newsstands this fall! We visited the YogaMom Magazine booth and collected a fabulous first copy of the magazine, filled with yogic tips to help moms lead more balanced lives. Learn more about the magazine by visiting www.yogamommagazine.com. We also picked up some adorable YogaMom t-shirts for Fine Balance’s Yoga Mom group in Central Park!
