Yoga on the Beach

Every Wednesday in May, the Office of Wellness and Bent on Healthy Living Wellness Center invite you to begin your morning grounded, outdoors, and at the edge of the Gulf. It is a small investment in yourself that aligns with everything More Good Days, Together is about…. showing up, breathing, and finding moments of restoration before the demands of the day take over. Bring a mat or beach towel and water. Donations are welcome and will benefit the Galveston Island Humane Society. All are welcome. Weather dependent. |
