Why do I feel tired after a long work day? Why do I get rundown and sick in the Winter? Why is my health declining as I get older?

In this workshop, we’ll explore the concepts of Yin and Yang. We’ll discuss how these forces relate to each other, and how they describe the nature of our activities. We’ll discuss the way in which these forces exist in a natural balance in the universe around us, as well as touch on some practical ways to be conscious of Yin, Yang and balance in our own activities and lifestyles.
