Opening the heart like a lotus...
Karma yoga is about giving lovingly without expecting anything back.
Your Yoga Center wants to give back to our community. We will have a special fundraising candlelight yoga class on:
Thursday, December 22nd
at 6:30pm.
Suggested donation is $25.
You can make donations at:
- The donation box in our center (cash or check)
- On our website (credit card)
- The Day of the event
You may participate in so many ways in this karma yoga session. You do not have to participate in fundraising to have a saying. Simple go to the side bar to vote for the organization that appeals to your heart. You can vote any time and many times! We want all to have an input in this.
You do not have to be present (physically) to “win”… Simple participate by donating or not; getting to know these organizations and donating your time directly to them, etc. We can all reap the benefits of a more loving society.
You do not have to donate money to participate in this class. There are many ways to give of yourself. Volunteer hours are precious, so offering to volunteer for the chosen organization is very valuable too!
Votes will be tallied until the day of the special class, when the results will be announced.
Again, our center is about open handed love, unconditional love. We want you to participate in this one way or another – it is good for the heart!
