Hamsa Yoga invites
public to learn more about Common Ground / enjoy a free yoga class on July 27!                  

Being healthy is about balancing our minds, bodies and spirit… this

presentation ties those things together through yoga, healthy food and a

presentation about the importance of mental health.



On Saturday, July 27th at 1pm, Hamsa Yoga in

downtown Lake Orion at 24 N. Broadway St., will host a special presentation

about how Common Ground helps people move from crisis to hope.  This presentation follows a free community

yoga class (suitable for all yoga levels) from 11:15am-12:30pm, with the

opportunity to sample some homemade vegan fare.

Alan Haras, owner of Hamsa Yoga, is happy to welcome

community members to this event.  Alan

attended a Crisis to Hope presentation earlier this year and was moved by the

speakers, stating “the stories shared by staff and clients showed that Common Ground

treats people with dignity, focusing on their value and self-worth. I want to

help spread the word about the importance of this organization, it is a message

that everyone needs to hear.”  Alan’s wife,

Rita Patel, is a wellness strategist and board member at Common Ground who

helped organize the event, which will give guests the opportunity to visit this

unique yoga center, connect with other caring community members and hear some

inspirational stories to get a better vision of Common Ground’s impact.

Common Ground has been serving Oakland County and

surrounding areas for more than 40 years in a caring compassionate way and most

programs are free.  The 24 hour crisis

and resource helpline (800-231-1127) is well known but there are many other

supports available to youth, families and adults in the community… this program

will shed some light on them.  For more

information, visit www.commongroundhelps.org or  call Hamsa Yoga at 248-814-8522.
