Hello Sweet Yogis, join me for Yoga in the Park! I’ll be teaching for West Asheville Yoga Studio and would absolutely love to have you there. We’ll link movement and breath in the (spatially-distant) company of others, as we practice an all-levels flow.

Please bring a mat or towel to practice on, if you like. Breathe, move, and find your center under the sun.

*This practice will take in North Asheville. The exact location and address will be sent after registration.

To register visit: https://westashevilleyoga.com/event/outdoor-yoga-with-tara/

**In the case of rain, you may use the class pass purchased for future Outdoor Yoga class or any live stream yoga class.

What we’re about

 ASAP is promoting May as Wellness Month at area farmers markets. Seven farmers markets, in Buncombe, Haywood, Henderson, and Madison counties, will host health and wellness vendors and offer free activities and resources in events scheduled throughout the month.

Farm Fresh for Health is a farm-centered initiative designed to connect people to environments and activities that support healthy lifestyles and eating choices. Shopping at farmers markets encourages us to eat fresh fruits and vegetables, cook meals at home, and eat together with friends and family.

With the Farm Fresh Prescription Program, participating physicians can prescribe a farmers market visit to their patients. Patients redeem their prescription at ASAP Farmers Market and receive $10 to spend at the market (with seven “refills,” for a total of $80). The prescription incentive provides healthcare providers with action steps that fit within the healthcare process. Six physicians from two practices in Asheville (The Family Health Centers and Lantern Health) will participate in the 2021 pilot. An earlier pilot, begun in January of 2020, was interrupted by the pandemic. ASAP plans to expand the program to include additional markets and health practices in the future.

“The idea of prescribing healthy food/eating to patients is gaining momentum and the recognition it deserves as immensely important in optimizing the long-term health of patients,” said Dr. Ben Aiken of Lantern Health. “Being able to do so by connecting them to local food and community is a win-win.”

Wellness Month activities range from kids yoga and community workouts to cooking demos to health screenings and chiropractic evaluations. Find details about vendors and events for specific markets on the follow page or on ASAP’s community events calendar at fromhere.org/events. Participating markets are:

• Enka-Candler Tailgate Market, May 27, 3 to 6 p.m.

• Haywood’s Historic Farmers Market, May 22, 9 a.m. to noon

• Hendersonville Farmers Market, May 22, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

• Mars Hill Farmers and Artisans Market, May 22, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

• Mills River Farmers Market, May 8, 15, 22, 29, 8 a.m. to noon

Bask in lunar energy during this full moon yoga session with Namaste in Nature. The mountains are said to be a natural vortex of spiritual energy, which makes Chimney Rock an ideal setting for connecting your spirit with nature. Lightweight yoga mats will be provided by your certified yoga teacher. This class is open to all levels of expertise. Advance registration is required.

Join me on Thursdays at 2:30pm EST for a 60-minute vinyasa flow. Each week we gather and practice together as a group in real-time through Zoom, bringing the yoga studio straight to the comfort of your own cozy hOMe.

Consider this to be a sacred hour of YOU time, where you can get out of the mind and back into the soil of the body. May we align our breath to sync the beat of our hearts…healing ourselves and this planet from the inside out.

Reserve your spot on the mat today!
