Life..... Green and Beautiful



April 22, 2009 is Earth Day. This day was created to increase awareness, and appreciation of our planet and the environmental issues we all face. Senator Gay lord Nelson, the originator began the first earth day by holding a "teach in" on April 22, 1970 to increase awareness of overpopulation and its effects on the planet. Over 20 million people participated. According to the Earth Day network, the April 22 observance is the largest secular holiday in the world, celebrated by more than a half billion people in 175 countries.
I would like to suggest five great activities anyone can do to celebrate this wonderful planet we all live in. These activities take little to no money and can be done in Paris France, Bute Montana or Tilwadi India and all can be wheelchair modified.
Go outside and have a walk, focus on breathing fully.
plant something , it's good for your brain.
(no space, plant something in a pot in your apartment)
Make your yoga green.
If you haven't already make a commitment to recycle.
practice a few sun salutations outside.
Be well and have a wonderful day!
