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
