Singing Heart Yoga

14 years ago, I wandered into a yoga class taught by Lana Maree and cried through it all. It changed my life. But now my tears are different.
Lana has been evicted from her home. The community housing she was able to find after relentless searching is not built yet, due to construction delays. The stress of searching for housing has destroyed Lana’s health.

Please join me in giving what you can, once, twice, or monthly, to help Lana find a peaceful home to rebuild her strength until her community housing is built (likely by mid 2023).

At an event today, I had a chance to reconnect with the most dedicated participant in the classes I taught through Yoga Outreach years ago. As a survivor of the Indian Residential School System, he has lived through much suffering, and I was relieved to learn he is making it through this pandemic. In his honour, I signed up for the annual starting October 6. Join me!
