HAPPY HALLOWEEN, FRIENDS.
Before moving on to the fun stuff, here’s something scary: Tomorrow, November 1, SNAP benefit EBT payments (aka food stamps) will stop being issued due to the ongoing government shutdown. Roughly 1 in 4 Baltimore households rely on this assistance. On top of that, furloughed government workers are going on a full month with no pay, meaning thousands more of us are experiencing poverty and food insecurity.
Yoga Union started a food drive exchange program yesterday to help those our Hampden/Woodberry neighborhood and the downtown Baltimore area.
HOW IT WORKS:
Bring in 5 nonperishable food items.
Receive 1 free class credit to Yoga Union.
Take an amazing yoga class.
Repeat as many times as you want.
Huge thanks and kudos to Cadie and Stephanie for continuing to lead with love and generosity. Service to the Baltimore community’s greater good is the ethos of this studio and I could not be more proud to be on the team there.
Read on for the November schedule, a Pilates announcement, and a spooky subscriber freebie for the horror fans out there!
Love, Liz
Extremely relatable Halloween pastime: go fishing in your fireplace
When the ghoul next to you puts her legs all over your yoga mat

Thanks to everyone who helped me complete my 20 practice teaching hours this summer and fall! Now that my training course is all wrapped up, I’m stoked to announce studio mat classes coming to Baltimore studios this winter. Stay tuned (I can’t let the cat out of the bag just yet!)
Enter if you dare
This frightful freebie is for subscribers only! You gotta join the club to tour the Haunted House and find out which archetype you are.
The body is a haunted house with nine rooms
FIND OUT WHICH ROOM YOU ARE, then come back to see your spectral image.
The Body as a Haunted House narrative was created by me, as were all of these graphics and the quiz, with inspiration from Nevine Michaan’s Katonah Yoga Magic Square, Body as a House metaphor, and an assignment from my mentorship program that I took really far. Happy Haunting xoxo
