Keeping Your Mind and Body Healthy
This week in Canada is Mental Illness Awareness Week 2020, it runs from Sunday the 3rd to Saturday the 10th of May. A great way to keep both your mind and body healthy is Yoga. Barrie has several Yoga Studios who have online lessons, tips and exercises you can do at home. Some of the benefits of Yoga include Improve flexibility, strength, and posture, Increase your energy, Reduce stress and much more. These days when we are isolating and the pressure or just boredom is impacting you this is a great way of helping.
We have listed a few Barrie Yoga Studios who are there to help you, they also need your help to continue to operate. We have listed schedules where we could find them, if not contact the individual studios directly.
