Her journey through postpartum depression—while caring for her son, who faces a fatal illness—reshaped her perspective and deepened her purpose. She discovered that taking care of herself wasn’t optional; it was essential.

Regular yoga is so intimidating—try chair yoga!

Start your week well with "choga" fun and relaxation with certified instructor Sara Stearns of Derby City Yoga.

Now you can enjoy a gentler yoga workout without becoming an arm-and-leg pretzel. This low-impact version is performed with a chair for support, making it perfect for a beginner or someone with difficulty balancing. Some individuals in wheelchairs may also be able to participate; please consult your doctor first if you have medical questions or concerns.
