Relax, restore, refresh. That is the goal of the new FREE monthly self care program at Pocket Change.
The Refresh is a collaboration between Pocket Change and Corey Thomas bringing you restorative yoga and brunch on a monthly basis.
“I wanted to create a safe and relaxing environment for people especially Black folk to come and refresh themselves for the upcoming week. We are so focused on the day to day that we often forget to take time for ourselves which to me is the most important component to oneself. As a prospective yogi in training I wanted to introduce ways to handle stress and turn that into positive energy along with a good meal and music that will make you just feel good thus birthing “The Refresh,” Thomas explains.
Nannie Croney, MSSW Change Today, Change Tomorrow Deputy Director believes, “Self care is not selfish, it is necessary. Black people do so many things with passion and intensity, sacrifice after sacrifice, yet rarely have space to unwind and refresh. Our hope is to be able to provide a safe space to decompress, relax and refresh before getting back into the grind of the week. So come participate in restorative yoga, share a meal and dance until your heart is satisfied.”
The Refresh (a free event) will be held on the third Sunday of each month. Yoga will be held from 1-2pm with Self Care Brunch following from 2-5pm. to reserve your spot and goodie bag filled with self care items, RSVP to [email protected]
