On Wednesday 23rd September between 8 and 9am, Open Minds is hosting a free yoga class in Northey Street Park, Windsor as part of the You Plus program. The You Plus Suite is a collection of 5 programs focusing on creating a natural connection into broader community citizenship for people who have been effected by or are living with a mental illness. This yoga session is just one of the many available activities throughout Brisbane. The You Plus Fitness element aims to increase the engagement in health and fitness activity of individuals who are vulnerable to preventable lifestyle related illnesses. It has been created to encourage those living with a mental illness reconnect with loved ones and their community.



This particular free yoga session on the 23rd on Brisbane's north is hopefully just the first of many of its kind. These session will focus on how a person's psychological and physical wellbeing can affect their overall health in various ways.
