Join author, award-winning playwright, actor and yoga & mindfulness educator Rachael Coopes for a Sunday Morning Creative Flow. A growing body of research suggests that certain yoga and mindfulness practices enhance creativity, cognitive flexibility and our ability to generate new ideas.

In this yoga & mindfulness session, expect to move, breathe and meditate, setting the conditions for some creative thinking, writing, journaling or reading. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a notepad or journal to write in, a yoga mat to move on, a cushion for meditation or padding to sit on (optional), and yoga blocks if you have them (optional). Please note: yoga mats are not provided.
