Life's a Beach with LA YWIN
Join us for an afternoon of reflection and conversation ahead of Rosh Hashanah! With the Jewish New Year upon us, we’re taking this time to get grounded through a brief (20 minute) yoga practice followed by some individual journaling and reflection in small groups.
For this event you’ll need:
1. A towel or yoga mat + water bottle if you’d like to have them for your practice
2. A journal/notebook and your favorite writing utensils
3. Some comfy clothes for gentle movement--keep in mind that we’ll be outside so bring layers if you want them!
To get the most out of this group experience, we’ll be starting promptly at 3:00 PM. Can’t wait to see you there!
In keeping with JWI’s commitment to serving the greater good, COVID-19 vaccines will be required. This program is built for women and non-binary people who identify as Jewish, but people of every religious affiliation, race, culture, gender identity, sexual orientation, and ability are welcome.
