Happy Spring!
Such a wonderful time of year, life in abundance– the trees are blooming and starts are springing up from the earth, ready to bear their fruits!
A wonderful time to set new intentions, and make positive lifestyle changes, moving in sync with the seasons, as we so strive to live, in harmoney with nature! Maybe it is time to try a cleanse, give your digestive system a break by fasting, or commit yourself more deeply to your daily yoga practice! Whatever it may be this spring, India and I fully support you, on your journey to a more balanced state of health and wellness!
We have a lot of exciting events planned for the next few months, and we have also fully committed ourselves to a higher level of health, cleansing with juices and smoothies, and taking much more time for ourselves, and our passions, surfing and yoga, continually seeking to deepen our practices, so we can continue to share authentically with all of YOU!
First, we wanted to send a big thank you to all the retreaters who joined us for our two back to back April/May retreats. We were honoured to share time with you, we learned a lot from you, and had a blast! Come back soon!
Also a huge thank you to Bryan and Elizabeth Whitt and their supportive community of family and friends who sent down so many amazing donations, supporting positive, sustainable growth in this small fishing community!
Your donations will find their way to the community through a few different sales,(selling the items at very accessible prices) with funds going to support the building of the Gigante Health Center by Project Wave of Optimism.
Also, we are looking to collect clothing donations from our local yoga community to support an upcoming Papaya Wellness clothing sale, spearheaded by India Reinartz, and Save the Mermaids! 100% of sale proceeds will support the implementation of a reusable bag program in the local grocery store to end the use of plastic bags for GOOD in this fishing town, and increase the level of awareness and education available on trash pollution and its immediate effects on our local community and ocean!
Clothing Sale Date: Saturday May. 17, 2013 – details to follow- if you have any donations please contact India or Carly- by phone or email, Gracias!
