This month’s issue is all about self-care. Take
a moment to be thankful for the positives in your
life with an Astoria resident’s gratitude journals
(page 16). Are you pregnant or a new mother?
The Yoga Room’s prenatal and Mommy & Baby
classes can help you through this life transition,
and one student’s Yoga Mamas potluck group
provides community to fellow yogis (page 22). The
new business Loose Leaf brings herbal remedies
from Greece to our neighborhood (page 50). And
if your pet’s the one that needs pampering, check
out an Astoria pet spa (page 34).
