Raise money, bring awareness and have fun practicing
yoga with friends, family & others coming together for a “promise
of a cure.”
Endometriosis is a disease affecting 5.5 million women in the
U.S. alone. It is a painful, chronic gynecological disease that
effects more women than breast cancer. It is the leading cause
of infertility and hysterectomy and has a debilitating impact on
a woman’s life, relationships and career. There is no cure...this
is what we are hoping to change by raising awareness and money
for more research.
The
2nd annual "Yoga For Endo" event was held at Om Time
in Boulder, Colorado on March 10th. Our goal was to raise money
for the ERC [Endometriosis Research Center] and bring awareness
to the community about Endometriosis. Participants took part in
a Yoga Therapy session tailored to Endo, and received information
about ayurvedic medicine and it's benefits from Alakananda Ma.
I would like to thank everyone who attended our event, everyone
who donated time, money and resources, and our amazing sponsors
for supporting such a great cause. SHANTI, SHANTI, SHANTI.
