Yoga grows your brain.
A 2019 study showed that just 10 weeks of yoga led to MRI-confirmed growth in hippocampus tissue — the area of the brain responsible for memory, learning, and emotional regulation.
How does yoga do this?
• Breath + movement calm the nervous system and reduce cortisol (the stress hormone).
• Lower cortisol = less shrinkage of the hippocampus (which is often seen in chronic stress, anxiety, and depression).
• Mindful focus in practice strengthens neural pathways, improving attention and emotional balance.
In other words, yoga doesn’t just make you more flexible in your body — it literally builds resilience in your brain.
Your mat becomes a lab where body, breath, and mind work together to create long-lasting brain gains. 🧘🏽♀️

MONTH 2 SPECIAL EVENT - 90-Minute YOGA NIDRA with Sue Armstrong
When: Friday, August 15th, 2025
Time: 7:00-8:30pm
Fee: $45/ticket
Continue your meditative practice in August!
Or if you missed the event last month, take this opportunity to try the magical practice of Yoga Nidra.
Come experience the transformative power of this meditative practice!
What is Yoga Nidra? The Sanskrit word Nidra translates to 'sleep', although Conscious Meditative Awareness is a more accurate description. Yoga Nidra is a practice which gently illuminates the deepest corners of our subconscious mind. From here we can change old outdated belief systems, and work towards eliminating the root cause of suffering.
What to expect: There will be some light physical practice and breathwork before the meditation so please wear comfortable clothing. During the meditative portion you will be lying down on a mat, or if needed, a chair or bolster.
We will have time for integration after the practice, so please bring a journal and pen.
Why should I practice Yoga Nidra? During our lifetime we can accumulate and internalize false beliefs which can become more harmful to our mental and physical health as we age. Our mental state directly effects the quality of the interactions we have with others. But, because these beliefs get stored deep in our subconscious we often are not aware of them directly, only by the ripples they create. Yoga Nidra helps to unearth these beliefs and gives us the tools to change them.

About the Instructor - Sue Armstrong
Sue is a Registered 500 Hr Hatha Yoga Teacher. She has been practicing over 20 years and in 2016, she travelled to India to complete her Yoga Teacher Training. Aside from teaching yoga in Canada, Sue is also the co-founder and co-creator of Vishnu Yoga Shala, a Yoga Teacher Training School in Rishikesh, India.

Aside from yoga, Sue is also an Intuitive Coach, Reiki Master, Angel and Energy Healing Practitioner and Certified Holistic Health Practitioner. Sue's yoga classes focus on the principles of classical Hatha, which has its roots in authentic ta***ic practices. These practices are meant to align the body and mind to find our center of peace and serenity within. The practices themselves combine simple movements aligned with the breath to warm up the body before deeper asana practice in order to move prana and reduce injury.
These movements also anchor the mind into the body. Its practices were designed to set aside the ego, stabilize the mind, develop more self-compassion and connection to the self. As a now well-known quote states "yoga is the path of the self, through the self, to the self". As we continue to practice yoga, we begin to appreciate this meaning.
See you there!
