WOOD RIVER - IMPACT Strategies, Inc. recently completed the renovation of the Federico Kia dealership in Wood River, IL at 1911 E Edwardsville Rd.

What if the simple act of moving your yoga practice from indoors to outdoors could amplify the benefits you receive for both mind and body? While yoga is widely celebrated for its ability to improve flexibility, strength, and mental clarity, practicing it outdoors introduces a unique set of advantages that many practitioners have yet to fully explore. The Mind-Body Connection Enhanced by Nature Yoga has long been revered as a discipline that unites the physical and mental realms through breath control, posture, and mindfulness.
