Chair Yoga & Mindfulness - with Liz Gibbons

Liz Gibbons is leading a chair yoga and mindfulness session at the Pike Branch library on Thursday, November 5, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM. It's a beginner-friendly practice, so you don't need any prior experience with yoga or meditation to join in.

The session is built around chair-based yoga, which means you'll be doing your movements and stretches while seated rather than on a mat. Gibbons combines that gentle movement with mindfulness and breathwork, so the hour isn't just about the physical side—there's a meditation component to it as well. The chair format makes it accessible for people who might find traditional floor yoga difficult or simply prefer to stay seated.

Gibbons describes the practice as one that improves posture, flexibility, balance, and strength, while also building mind-body awareness. Beyond the physical, she frames it as a way to promote steadiness, confidence, and a greater sense of well-being and peace. It's aimed at seniors and adults, and since it's designed for beginners, it's a low-pressure way to get into it.

The session runs from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM on Thursday, November 5, at the Pike Branch of the Indianapolis Public Library, located at 6525 Zionsville Road in Indianapolis. It's free to attend.
