Mindfulness Monday: Yoga with the Delaware County Health Department
In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month and connecting with the Delaware County Health Department’s (DCHD) Community Health Improvement Plan priority of enhancing whole-person care for residents, DCHD is collaborating with Keystone First in announcing its “Mindfulness Monday” series. The Mindfulness Monday series kicks off with two free yoga classes at the Wellness Center in Yeadon on Monday, May 6th. Registration for classes is required through the Delaware County Wellness line by phone at (484) 276-2100 or by email at DelcoWellness@co.delaware.pa.us
Mindfulness means taking the time to do things that help you live well and improve both your physical health and mental well-being. Practicing yoga can help relieve stress, lower your risk of illness, and increase your energy. Incorporating small acts like eating healthy, sleeping properly, and exercising regularly into your daily routine can have a big impact. Look for upcoming mindfulness events every other month with the Delaware County Health Department through September.

The morning session will be from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The afternoon session will be from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Both sessions are free and open to individuals of all ages and experience levels.
