We had a another lovely Luna Yoga Anniversary Class last night, with a fun, challenging āsana practice by Jenn, accompanied by sweet, reminiscent music played by Jason and attended by a large group of our wonderful Luna yogi community. […]
Two days before my 16th birthday, one of my very good friends passed away suddenly from meningitis. About a month earlier my grandfather also passed away. I was already becoming an angsty teen at that time, but I think the loss of 2 loved ones added to my slightly depressed, dark side. I remember feeling a little lost, and questioning the meaning of life. It wasn't until several years later that I discovered yoga and started to see the light again. […]

We love food at Luna Yoga, so when we were first introduced to reusable food wraps, we were so impressed we decided to start our search for a vegan and Canadian-made version. When our search led us to Earthology Vegan Organic Food Wraps, we knew this was the perfect fit for our eco-boutique! […]
1 - Why zero waste?
According to the most recent IPCC (UN) study, we only have until 2030 to prevent the most catastrophic consequences of climate change. We are running out of time, simple as that. Zero waste is certainly not the only way to shrink your environmental footprint, but it is one that most people can integrate into their daily lives. Don't let the "zero" in zero waste scare you off. It really isn't about perfectionism. It is about being more intentional. We are so used to seeing our food packaged in plastic, and we're all buzzing around checking things off our to-do lists—-we rarely take the time to take a step back and to see our seemingly mundane daily choices for what they are. What we chose to buy (and to not buy) has an impact. Many things come at a price, but often it's not us who are paying for it. I started the journey because I didn't want to live at the expense of other humans, animals, and our whole eco system. Zero waste helps you build sustainable habits that are both good for you and this precious world we all have to share. […]
One of the questions that came up in our our last Advanced TT Info Session was "Why did you decide to start offering an Advanced Teacher Training?" I started by responding that it was the same reasons we created our 250 hour training; we saw an interest in going deeper into yoga, to know more about the philosophy, anatomy, meditation, etc., more than we could fit into a regular class on the schedule. Our workshops were very popular, but people wanted to go deeper, and we have a staff full of knowledge in many different aspects of yoga. Our teachers have grown and benefitted from the knowledge they have acquired, and they are eager to pass it on, to help others, so we created our first teacher training. […]
