“The word Karma literally means action. It may appear that Karma is happening to us, as if some outside force is causing good things or bad things to come to us. However, it is really our own inner conditionings and processes that are leading us to experience outer effects or consequences in relation to our own actions.” – Swami Jnaneshvara Bharati
a karma yogi devoted to service to spread truth & peace” – from Be The Change by MC Yogi
When Rachel Guvenc started teaching at Nokomis Yoga she noticed we were missing something…something important…an opportunity to give back, as a community.
She could have just sat back and done her own thing, as many of the rest of us have done. She could have held her own classes to supported a cause or two that had a special place in her heart and left it at that. But Rachel decided to practice yoga (union) and bring us together.
She rallied instructors. She joined forces with Solveig Corbin. They publicize classes. People practiced yoga. Sounds so simple, but that simple required action. And, as a direct result of that action, the Nokomis Yoga community participated in 5 classes which donated a total of $900 to 5 non-profits in 2017.
