Yoga Bindu is creating a way to donate money to St. Jude's Children's Hospital thrugh the energy from those who want to share. Here's how it works: The canvas with the OM symbol hanging at the far wall of the studio has a table below it with a box of rhinestones, glue, toothpicks, and a donation box. The intention is for one to say a prayer, a wish, an intention, or thought for whatever it is you want to put energy out to and then glue a rhinestone or two to the canvas within the OM symbol. The donation is whatever you want because it all makes a difference. When the whole interior of the OM is filled with rhinestones, the canvas will be given away in a drawing.

Spiritual Bathing is a centuries old art of moving the elements of your body to reconnect you with the energy between heaven and mother earth. It is a way to rid the body of a spiritual disease, unblock stagnant energy, increase awareness or clarity, and remove obstacles that block the paths in one's life.

Yoga Bindu is pleased to recommend Spiritual Bathing. For more information, or to book a bath, please go to www.SpiritualBathing.com.
