As we approach the mid-summer mark in our calendar, hope you have been able to find sometime for well deserved rest and recovery.

Including in your schedule some of your favorite ways to enjoy the season. Perhaps reading a book during a lazy afternoon or laying in a hammock over looking a beautiful sky.

There are many ways we can take care of ourselves, but to slow down and simply connect with the rhythms of nature may be simplest and sweetest ways to relax from a busy life style.

If you like movie nights with your family or on your own, follows here a list of YOGA MOVIES. The list was created by yoga teachers, some I have seen and recommend, others cant wait to view.

Just do a little research to be sure they are appropriate for your young children, but for sure they are inspiring with a yogic philosophic message. Hope you enjoy this list and catch a few flicks.
