Hello familia. Natalia, the dear abuela of the Mystical Yoga Farm, needs the support of our community. She lives in a small indigenous village on the shores of Lago Atitlán, Guatemala and has shared thirteen years of dedicated service with the Mystical Yoga Farm, an intentional community and retreat center nearby her village. Natalia touched the hearts of thousands of beings during the time she shared with the farm, and now she is retiring. Recently, while walking home from the farm, she fell and became injured. She is on the mend and soon will be walking, though she realized through this injury it is her time to retire.

Natalia has been a pillar for the farm, and we feel her absence profoundly. She brought a nurturing, loving and wise energy to the community. From her bright smile to her curiosity and from her shy side to her bold side, we love and appreciate all she is. We want to support her in this transition into retirement so that she is safe, nourished and healthy.

We (the MYF) wish to support Natalia for as long as possible, though we cannot do it alone financially. That is why we’ve come to GoFundMe; to raise $5,000 for Natalia’s well-being in retirement. We are matching 50% of all donations grown on GoFundMe, up to $2,500. (Regardless of funds raised Natalia will receive $5,000 from the MYF). This money will allow Natalia to have access to water, electricity, food, doctor visits and some comfort for at least the next three years.

Natalia is an incredibly strong woman, growing up in the years of extreme violence against her people in the 70s-90s and still today embodying a kind and caring spirit. All of the money Natalia has made while working at the MYF, she has spent taking care of herself and her family, which is why making the decision to retire was quite difficult for her. If Natalia has ever been there for you, shared a laugh with you, made you a fresh tortilla, or washed your clothes, please consider donating. Even if you haven’t met this remarkable woman, please consider donating. If you’ve read this far, thank you. Loving energy and prayers are encouraged and welcomed for our sweet abuelita.

If you are able, donations are incredibly needed. US $20 goes much further in Guatemala than it does in the US, and this is supporting someone who truly deserves and needs our help. We care for Natalia immensely, and we know the entire MYF community cares for her too. Blessings on your journey. May it be a journey of love.

Hola familia.

La querida abuela del Mystical Yoga Farm, necesita nuestro apoyo. Ella vive en un pueblo indigena en la orilla del Lago Atitlán, Guatemala y lleva trece años trabajando por Mystical Yoga Farm (MYF), una comunidad intencional y centro de retiros cerca de su pueblo. Natalia ha tocado el corazón de miles de seres durante su tiempo en la finca y ahora se retira. Hace poco, cuando volvía a casa de la finca, se cayó y se hizo daño. Está recuperándose y pronto volverá a caminar, pero ha decidido retirarse.

Natalia ha sido un pilar para toda la comunidad y sentimos profundamente su ausencia. Ella trajo una energía bondadosa, sabia y cariñosa a la finca. Comparte una sonrisa brillante y mucha curiosidad. Amamos y apreciamos todo lo que ella es. Queremos apoyarla en esta transición a la jubilación, para que esté segura, cuidada, y sana.

Nosotros (el MYF) deseamos apoyar a Natalia el mayor tiempo posible, pero financieramente, no podemos hacerlo solos. Por eso, estamos en GoFundMe; para recaudar US$5.000 para el bienestar de Natalia en su jubilación. Estamos igualando el 50% de todas las donaciones realizadas en GoFundMe, hasta $2.500 dólares. Con este dinero, Natalia tendrá acceso al agua, la electricidad, la comida, visitas médicas, y algo de comodidad por los próximos tres años al menos.

Natalia es una mujer muy fuerte que creció en los años de extrema violencia contra su pueblo en los 70-90 y que aún hoy encarna un espíritu bondadoso y amoroso. Todo el dinero que Natalia ha ganado en su tiempo trabajando en el MYF lo ha gastado en cuidar de sí misma y a su familia. Si alguna vez Natalia ha estado ahí para ti, ha compartido una risa contigo, te ha hecho una tortilla fresca o te ha lavado la ropa, por favor considera donar. Incluso si no has conocido a esta extraordinaria mujer, por favor considera donar. Si has leído hasta aquí, gracias. Damos la bienvenida a la buena energía y los rezos de amor para nuestra abuelita.

Si puedes, las donaciones son increíblemente necesarias. US$20 puede marcar una mayor diferencia en Guatemala que en los EE.UU., y esto es apoyar a alguien que realmente merece y necesita nuestra ayuda. Nos preocupamos por Natalia inmensamente, y sabemos que toda la comunidad MYF se preocupa por ella también. Ayúdanos a ayudar a Natalia. Bendiciones en su viaje. Que sea un viaje de amor.
