Love Your Body Yoga Festival shines light on wellness in & around Reston

The ninth annual Love Your Body Yoga Festival was a huge success bringing together dozens of wellness-minded vendors and hundreds of wellness seekers for a day of yoga, education, and experiences to support mind, body and spirit.

As we shared in our preview post, the schedule for Love Your Body was packed. There were multiple yoga classes on the Reston Town Center pavilion,

music, talks and dance at the Bhakti Speakeasy Stage,

and yoga and family mindfulness experiences in the Kidasana tent.

Many vendors, like Neck Back & Beyond, offered free healing services and mini-consultations throughout the day.

Others, like Tasty 6 and Khepra’s Raw Food Juice Bar, offered healthy refreshments.

Some vendors sold products, including clothing and accessories and healthy living products, and many shared information about their services and programs

These included Mindful Healthy Life partners Carpe Diem Wellness, the Wellness Inspired Network, The Documenting Hope Project and The Durable Human .

It was a day with lots to learn and try!

The organizer, Beloved Yoga, is currently holding classes in its Great Falls studio and has plans to open a larger studio in Reston in the fall.
