Mindfulness | Yoga
Sweet João and Francisca thanks for the peaceful moments and for the sharing. I will always cherish these experiences and recommend them to my friends. I wish I was able to put in to practice all the teachings that you passed to us, but I will promise I will try. Thank you again to remind me to remember who I am, and what I am.
Much love and happiness to you both!
