Our HERS Program is celebrating the month of October with an emphasis on wellness and healthy living for women in our community. For many of our African single mothers and women out there, life and stresses can often lead them to sometimes forget about their own health and wellness, which can add more stress, pain in their bodies, and feeling more tired throughout the day. It's always important to encourage a more healthy and active lifestyle, where they can improve their bodies to be efficient energy machines to help them throughout the day.
Over the next four weeks, our HERS gatherings will be about improving women's wellness and fitness thanks to help from fitness instructor partners we've teamed up with. We started with a session on yoga and breathing exercises, and plan to have future sessions with more active exercises such as Zumba dancing as well as discussions on healthy eating and stress relief.
This is an exciting time for HERS and we're looking forward to continuing it.
