Vero’s Yoga Journey

Vero had expressed interest in yoga a long time ago but didn’t attend her first session until last week with our amazing Volunteer Instructors, Marissa and Dave. Despite finding it challenging, she enjoyed it and felt great afterward.

Today, I couldn’t make it to yoga, so I asked Vero if she could step in as the program lead. After today’s session, she shared something that truly made my day: her sciatica pain, which had been troubling her, eased tremendously after last week’s class. She told me she could finally sit comfortably again and felt even better after today’s session.

She shared all of this while laughing with joy, clearly excited about the relief yoga has brought her. It’s a wonderful reminder of how these simple programs can have such a meaningful impact on our community.
