Event Description
Approximately 40 million Americans deal with anxiety disorders. Anxiety is a common mental health concern that we are seeing more often. Our brain function remains the same but our lifestyles keep taking on more and more stress, just like what is happening during the current COVID-19 crisis. Yoga helps to reduce anxiety by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system or the “rest and digest” system.
