Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, India

Donation protected
Hi,
Most of you know about or are somewhat familiar with my journey of recovery from drug addiction and alcoholism. As an active member in recovery to date, my life really took off when I found Yoga. Yoga means Union. The practice went much deeper in to mind, body, spirit, ambitions, healing past trauma and learning deeper meaning in to a new way of life. Uniting mind, body and spirit, as well as healing my body through many injuries in the past 5yrs of practicing regularly. I now feel called as a student to teach others the same practice that has made such a huge impact on my life, as well a volunteering my time and teaching to children and the elderly whenever possible. My pride and ego did not want to start a gofundme, I told myself over and over I can do it on my own, which may be true, but also it showed me some conviction on not wanting, allowing or accepting help from others, which steals their blessings as I was taught from my teacher. Some people wanna help me as much as I wanna help them, but I have to be willing and have the capacity to receive. I’ve decide to humble myself and give others a chance to be apart of this journey and pay it forward to others as the world turns. I truly believe that is the only answer to healing humanity and finding peace and enlightenment, to serve others. All funds raised, if any, will go towards Hatha and Vinyasa 200hr YYT for certification here in the US. The training will be held in Rishikesh, India at Rishikesh Yoga School and the class is $1,250 room and board for the 24 days of training and the flight is roughly $1,800 for transparency. Cost will be roughly $3,000 in total which is actually cheaper than most here in the US and straight from the source, along with small cost like Visa and such. I have received my passport and have money saved up as well. I’m shooting for a class in April. If you want to be a part of the journey and education, feel free to donate. A cup of coffee is usually the example used and would be great, if you have more or less, I’m grateful for that too. If you don’t have any, maybe just send some good energy out for me or prayers for a safe journey and opportunity to help others. Thanks for your time, energy and/or any donations you send my way!
