Last Saturday, I celebrated early by getting out of the house attending a grand opening for a local yoga studio called Grey Owl Yoga. The grey decor, the vibe, and the space is absolutely beautiful. They have a meditation room, two yoga rooms, and an inviting lobby. I was happy to see they have offerings […] Read more…
Ahh, another fitness challenge done…a lifetime more to go.
