 Did you miss our last online practice? Join in now!  Beloved ones, Our mantra at Embody is "Feel Better, Do Good." In October we are focusing on the DO GOOD part. It's Global Giveback Day October 6, 2021 which calls us all to action! If you are in West Michigan, join us in collaboration with our community partner Kids' Food Basket, at the GR location on 10/6/2021 from 6:00-7:30pm, 1300 Plymouth Ave NE, Grand Rapids, MI 49505. Help us bring healthy food to the most vulnerable among us; our children. You must sign up online here: KFB Volunteer Hub We have room for 15 volunteers so let's max it out!  If you are in Northern California, join me at Petaluma Bounty Farm from 9 am - noon to work on the farm and then have an outdoor on-site yoga practice led by yours truly from 12-12:45 pm. Simply show up and dress for getting dirty.  For the rest of us who cannot attend either Kids' Food Basket or Petaluma Bounty Farm, please consider giving back in some way. There are many ways to be of service in your community & here are just a handful: 1. Donate your time- animal shelter, soup kitchen, school 2. Random act of kindness 3. Mentor a child 4. Plant a tree 5. Pick up trash at the beach, a park, or along a bike trail The sky's the limit. You are guaranteed to feel better after offering your time & heart to make our world better. The Greek philosopher Aristotle said, “The essence of life is to serve others and do good.” I must say I agree. But if Aristotle and I are not enough to convince you, studies have linked giving back in service to increased happiness & better physical and mental wellbeing. So make a commitment to yourself, along with us at Embody, to take positive action on Global Giveback Day. I'd love to hear your stories & see your photos.
