The Double Ninth Festival is a celebration based on a Han Dynasty legend about a man who saved his village from a disease-spreading monster. “Chong Yang,” meaning “double yang,” references balance and harmony. The celebration is held on the Ninth Day of the Ninth Lunar Month. The Double Ninth Festival, sometimes known as the “Senior Citizen’s Festival,” is a wellness celebration that encourages good health and balanced living. APALSA will offer Chrysanthemum Tea, considered for its beneficial herbal properties. Please join us for Yoga at 4:00 PM, followed by a tea break. Some yoga mats are provided!
