Yoga & Mindfulness in Roscommon Library
Yoga & Mindfulness with Avril Mullally of Roscommon Yoga & Therapies will take place in Roscommon Library on Tuesday, January 29th from 6.30 pm to 8 pm.
This event was originally advertised as ‘Beginners’ Yoga’, however due to demand we have decided to have participants seated rather than on mats. There will be a discussion on Yoga & Mindfulness Meditation where Avril will explain the positive benefits it will bring to your life.
This is a free event and places can be booked by phoning 090-6637277/6637282 or by emailing lkeane@roscommoncoco.ie.
