Nashua Area - United Nations International Day of Peace

There is power in collective action!

In conjunction with the United Nation's International Day of Peace, Yoga practitioners all over the world will join in the world wide Global Mala Project.

The purpose of the Global Mala is to unite the global yoga community from every continent, to form a "mala around the earth" through collective practices based upon the sacred cycle of 108. 

A mala is a circle of 108 beads which may be used in meditation.

In the greater Nashua area, you can experience the healing and unifying power of yoga and mediation practices by attending workshops taught by 21 teachers.

There will be an array of practices from traditional yoga for adults and kids to laughter yoga.  You can see the entire list of teachers and the schedule at Yoga Caps. 

Among the teachers will be Terry and Ajay Gupta, the owner of Yoga Caps and my Yoga teacher, Ginny Jackson, who will be offering a workshop in Somatics.
