Washtenaw chapter of Families Against Narcotics (FAN) and A2 Yoga have partnered to provide free yoga classes to those in recovery and their families. In-person classes take place from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. each Wednesday through December 30. Masks are required and temperature checks will be taken at the door. Each class will be limited to 12 participants.

        Studies show that yoga and mindfulness can help decrease stress, cravings and impulsivity, and may be a good complement to traditional therapy. According to a recent survey of Washtenaw FAN Yoga for Recovery participants, 100 percent would recommend Yoga for Recovery to a loved one struggling with substance use, 100 percent agree or strongly agree that Yoga for Recovery reduces their stress and anxiety levels and 88 percent say that Yoga for Recovery is very beneficial in improving their sense of community and support.
