Redmond’s Discover Yoga will host a series of SoulStretch workshops. The holistic practice combines gentle yoga and writing and draws upon the metaphors of life to explore the innermost self.

“Yoga and writing is a perfect combination,” says local author G. Elizabeth (Gail) Kretchmer, who co-facilitates the workshop along with yoga instructor Heather Christensen. “Body movement stimulates creative juices, and narrative expression creates space in the body.”

This year’s workshops will be held from 1-4 p.m. April 30 (Where Is the Love?), May 21 (The Honest Truth), Sept. 17 (Take a Stand) and Oct. 7 (It’s All Practice).

Discover Yoga is located at 15744 Redmond Way. For more information, visit www.facebook.com/SoulStretchYogaAndWriting or email soulstretchyogaandwriting@gmail.com.
