Tuesday March 26th @ 6pm –Hip Opener Yoga Workshop with Andrea Ellsworth of Your Urban Yogi. This workshop focuses on opening and relieving tension in the hips. Many studies have shown that we carry a lot of stress in our hips, and some have even claimed “release your hips, release your emotions” as this area of the body tends to prove a connection that we store negative emotion in this area. Join us in releasing your hips and letting go of so much needed stress. REGISTER HERE

Our lady renews herself March 11 2013… She will be void off course from 3:55 pm until 7:17 am March 12 2013 where she will visit with the sign Aries.
The moon in Aries can be impulsive and bold. Some of us may feel more energetic than usual if this is the case use your energy wisely, but be aware of jumping to conclusions or into situation before knowing all the facts… :)
This can be a great time to begin new projects, especially ones that are “me” related… or to bring about a change for the better in your present situation…
For those who may be shy or find it difficult to speak up… use this time (with the moon in Aries) to be your own “hero”…
This past February SGC invited people to tell others about our face book page… with all new likes being entered into a draw for a free mini tarot card reading….
Thanks to everyone who “likes” us and to all who spread the word … we appreciate each and every one of you… :)
