| Learn How to Improve Self-Image |
| Hi friends!
Join us online today at 1:30pm EDT for a special Wellness Wednesday discussion group:
Self-Image Changes Through Awareness
We make choices in our daily lives based on our self-image. When our self-image changes, our age-old habits and patterns can change, opening up new possibilities and potentials for life. Awareness is the golden key to this process of revelation.
Join Senior Planet fitness trainer Naoko Maeshiba for a short discussion about how self-image is formed and how it changes, followed by a 30-minute Awareness Through Movement lesson and Q&A session.
See you online,
|
