Yoga CARE explores the teachings of Yoga and Social Justice. This year our focus includes the Bhagavad Gita: Contemplation (Inquiring into the seeds of human capacity and the seeds of suffering), Action (socially-engaged practices to nourish human capacity and address suffering), Restoration (understanding and integrating that which we've considered the Shadow of human nature), and Equanimity (maintaining our porousness and presence in the social justice margins).
When yoga is accessible, inclusive, and respectful of the diversity and dignity of all it becomes a social justice catalyst – an opportunity for all to experience themselves as capable of making Contributions to the betterment of the whole, as worthy of their own Advocacy, Resilience, and Empowerment.
Join Yoga Advocates Sarahjoy Marsh (DAYA Foundation + Living Yoga) in a pre-conference Telesummit with Hala Khouri (Off the Mat, into the World), Rosa Vissers (Yoga Behind Bars), Mike Huggins (Transformation Yoga Project), Vanessa Timmons (Oregon Coalition Against Domestic + Sexual Violence), Andrew Tanner (Yoga Alliance), Blair Bobier (Pacific Green Party + criminal defense attorney), Geoff Sittler (Oregon MindBody Medicine), Mike Sapiro, Beth Berila, and more.
