We live in a highly demanding society that requires us to be constantly performing to our best, and relaxation is considered as something to be earned instead of a moment we all need. Constant social and work pressure results not just in a stressed body, but also in a stressed mind (and soul) which compels us to take decisions and actions that even stress our environment.

Sunday evenings should be a time of realigning our trio, about positive thoughts and about fresh energy to kickoff another week to achieve greater impact at work, and off it.

“The physical world reflects our spiritual outlook. If we want to change the conditions of the physical world, we have to change our mindset.”

--

Seeds of Change Mantra

Join us for our all new, all special series of Sunday evening ‘workouts’ where the focus will be on getting you to connect with yourself, your body and your environment. '

我们生活在一个要求很高的社会，要求我们不断地表现出最好的状态，放松被认为是我们需要努力获得的东西，而不是我们需要的。 持续不断的社会和工作压力不仅会导致身体压力，而且会导致紧张的头脑（和心灵），迫使我们采取甚至会给我们的环境带来压力的决策和行动。

“物质世界反映了我们精神的表象。如果我们想改变物质世界的状况，我们必须改变我们的思维方式。“（Seeds of Change）

但这样的状态是可以改变的。这三者的和谐并不困难。心灵、身体和环境一旦协调，个体的和谐就会顺其自然地发生。 个人的完整性的发展和培养可以通过练习加强。周日的晚上，应该是调整自身状态、专注积极的想法、启动新活力的时间。

加入我们全新的周日锻炼计划，专注自身的和谐。
