Yoga For Recovery
Sat | September 8, 2018 @ 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm
FreePURE Yoga Texas and PURE Action are excited to host Yoga Journal and the 2018 Live Be Yoga Tour at PURE Yoga Downtown Austin on Saturday, September 8th for a special “Yoga for Recovery” event in recognition of September as “National Recovery Month.”
This event will include two special classes from yogis in recovery from addiction. We will be joined by the @LiveBeYoga Team from Yoga Journal Magazine, who will provide gift bags, giveaways, and shooting images and video as they discover what The Future of Yoga holds.
In the afternoon, PURE Action, an Austin-based 501(c)3 nonprofit, will host a special “ “Yoga TALK,” designed to inform and inspire your yoga practice. Hear testimonials from yogis who have invested in their health, home, purpose, and community through the practice of yoga. Learn from UT Austin Dell Medical School’s Dr. Kasey Claborn about the “Neurobiology of Addiction” and “Yoga in the Treatment of Opioid Use Disorders.”
Yoga for Recovery is a special event to bring awareness of the benefits of yoga and recovery from addictions and to celebrate those in recovery. The event is free, but donations are encouraged. All donations will be donated to PURE Action to support community yoga classes to the underserved in the Greater Austin area.
