Suggested Items:
If you like your own cushion or mat for meditating feel free to bring that, though we should have chairs.
Eating and Breathwork Considerations: While breath work is generally safe, I was taught that it is recommended to eat light or ideally not have any food 2-3 hours before pranayama. Also In general you may find meditation is much easier on a light stomach.
