Many times we realize these aren’t good for us and we want to experience happiness and peace and contentment but just saying that isn’t enough. Yoga is a method to follow to help your body and your breath and your mind move into, that peaceful state.

By Mary Lynn Fitton. Founder, The Art of Yoga Project
It was the day before Thanksgiving at San Mateo County’s Camp Kemp Juvenile detention facility. Holidays are always an especially rough time for girls locked up away from family and friends. At The Art of Yoga Project (AYP), we not only hold yoga and art classes on holidays, we try to think of special ways to inspire the girls. We decided a movie showing would be just the thing.
