YOGA FOR HAITI
This Sunday Morning
February 7
Jivamukti Yoga School
Presents
YOGA FOR HAITI
With Jivamukti Teachers Cassandra Rigney, Dechen Thurman, Jules Febre, Matthew Lombardo, Monica Jaggi, Rima Rabbath, and Ruth Lauer-Manenti Musical accompaniment by Kelly Britton
Sunday, February 7, 2010
9:30 am – 12 pm
May all beings everywhere be happy and free and may the thoughts, words and actions of my own life contribute in some way to that happiness and to that freedom for all.
Haiti’s situation is obviously very dark for all beings as they suffer the aftermath of the earthquake. It is common during natural disasters for aid to be focused only on human beings as there is a great need for food, water, shelter and medicine. However, many animal beings who are also in the same situation tend to be forgotten during a disaster.
Jivamukti Yoga School is joining forces with P.E.T.A (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) and ARCH (Animal Relief Coalition for Haiti) to relieve the suffering of animals affected by the earthquake. P.E.T.A, with the help of funds raised by the Jivamukti Yoga School community, will be working to aid as many animals as possible in the shortest amount of time. Check P.E.T.A.’s blog regarding the Haitian situation by clicking here.
Please join us for this program that will transform this devastating experience into a reason to cultivate compassion, generosity and love towards all beings.
“You can never go wrong chanting the names of God. Whatever names resonate for you. You can never go wrong chanting auspicious words like shantih-peace. Those sounds are like medicine. They can actually dismantle elemental forms or beings that we have created through negative thoughts, words and actions.” – Sharon Gannon
Program Schedule:
9:30am -10am – Meditation, prayer and chanting for healing and restoration
10am -12pm – Yoga Asana class
12pm – Vegan Brunch starts at the JivamukTea Café
Program Donation: $75
Over 20 In class privates will be raffled off during the program.
Donations can also be made by going to the P.E.T.A.’s website

Jonathan Safran Foer’s Favorite Burger
I have never been to Bonnie’s before, nor do I typically like diner kinds of restaurants. But I read in NY Mag that Jonathan Safran Foer’s (author of Eating Animals) named this veggie burger as one of his favorites in Park Slope. Plus after further review I see that not only do they serve Vegetarian Chili but they serve Vegetarian Chili Chese Fries. This is something I have never had because every place makes their chili with meat 
I don’t eat food like this often, but for the ultimate of comfort food we may be heading to Park Slope soon!

“[Bonnie's] veggie burger is f—king great! I remember what hamburgers were like, but, believe it or not, I would choose their veggie burger over a hamburger.” —Jonathan Safran Foer naming one of his top five vegetarian-dining spots in Park Slope for Brooklyn Paper. Yes, Jonathan Safran Foer, we do believe you.
