YOGATHON UNITE!

The Yogathon was a beautiful day!

Full of compassion, children, laughter, and some great yoga!
We raised another $2500! A huge step towards the goal of $20,000. Beyond the numbers.....is the most important part of this whole experience. The sense of community and support on Saturday warmed my heart and really let our true colors shine.

I can't thank everyone enough who came and gave with their hearts. Regardless of the money, we sent a huge amount of positive energy to the people of Uganda and to people who may be suffering anywhere.

We set our intention to make a difference and we have. Big or small isn't the question......every little step is part of the journey!

There is another event on September 2nd at the Soma Center in Lake Worth. We will offer a by onation yoga class and we will also be having an I LOVE YOGA trunk show! Moses, the guru of I LOVE YOGA, will be making a stop to us on his Green Bus Tour. check it out: greenbusproject.com.

See you at the next event.

Shanti OM, peace, untiy,

YOGATHON @ GYROTONIC SATNAM

Set an intention for your day, for your practice, for your life.

I strive to live up to my intentions everyday. They are ever changing and range from giving all of my heart to taking a deep breath while driving!

My intentions for the past 7 months have included spreading the word for Off the Mat Into the World.

There is a courageous community of people living in Uganda. They live everyday with unimaginable obstacles and still bring laughter and joy to their lives.

People in Northern Africa live on about $1 a day.



We can and are making a huge difference in these lives. Awareness and education about HIV and Aids will be more available with the programs that are being created with our donations.

Our donations are what they need to educate their community and have safe birthing practices for mothers with HIV/Aids.

I am passionate about the practice of Yoga and the strength that the community can bring to others.

Please help me in raising my goal of $20,000 by December 15th 2009.

If I reach this goal I will go to Uganda and work with these amazing organizations and the well deserving people of Uganda.
