Yoga Aid Challenge Brisbane 2010
Namaste friends,
The Australian School of Meditation and Yoga have volunteered to host the first Yoga Aid Challenge in Brisbane and it would be wonderful if you could be a part of it. The Yoga Aid Challenge is a two-hour Yoga practice consisting of 108 Sun Salutations with your local Yoga community on Sunday the 15th November down by the river at beautiful, leafy Orleigh Park in West End starting at 9am till 11am. The Yoga Aid Challenge event is a fun and safe event for all regardless of age, yoga experience or fitness level. The event is free to attend
and all the money raised goes directly to charity. The Yoga Aid Challenge aims to raise awareness of the benefits of Yoga and money for charities by each participant fund-raising prior to the event. So far the Yoga Aid Challenge events have raised $540,000 for charities worldwide. This year we are seeing Yoga Aid Challenges take place across Australia, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Japan , UK and USA.
This is a morning full of fun! We will begin with Yoga Breathing followed by the Sun Salutations, then finish off with relaxation, Mantra meditation and a healthy snack. To register simply visit the Yoga Aid Challenge website at www.yogaaid.com.au and start fund raising. Internet fund-raising is a proven, simple way of raising money online. It is fully secure and provides tax refund receipts for donors worldwide. Thank you for supporting the Yoga Aid Challenge and I look forward to bringing yoga to communities across the world and raising money for children in need.
Together we can make a difference.
Kindest Regards,

Following is the press release for National Vegetarian Week;
Want to save money on your groceries, improve your health and reduce your carbon footprint?
Mark 29th September in your diary now to join millions of Australians in giving vegetarian meals a go and do your wallet, health and the environment a big favour.
Australia's second annual National Vegetarian Week, sponsored by Sanitarium Health Food Company, runs from 29 September to 5 October and features a comparison of high meat, plant-based and vegetarian seven-day meal plans and tasty, contemporary recipes the whole family will love.
With NewsPoll research showing that seven in ten adult Australians eat vegetarian meals - with almost half wanting to know more interesting ways for cooking them - a range of community events will be held around the country to shine the spotlight on the vast array of scrumptious plant-based dishes that can be quickly whipped up at home.
