Global Fast...hungry for change

During the grounded yoga training I met Erin.  She videographed the training and I photographed.  Ee made a pretty awesome team!  Erin works for Global Fast.  hat is Global Fast?  "Globalfast is a totally new way to give. By giving up one meal each month, you change lives without changing your budget. You give off your plate, not out of your wallet. This is an opportunity to transform ourselves—through sacrifice for others, we become courageous and committed agents of global change."  


I know this is a serious sacrifice, but to go hungry for just one day is a way to connect, go deeper, and give one person clean water for a lifetime.  If you are hungry for a change check out globalfast.org!

For the kiddies...lets teach our children about thankfulness and mindfulness.  As a family, we just happen to be learning about WATER and so I shared the video below and we discussed the importance of being thankful and mindful of water.  We checked out several super cool books about water as well as a few great sites for kids.  As a family we have taken a pledge to conserve water and we took the H2O Water Quiz.  Fernbank's WATER exhibit looks awesome if you are looking for somewhere to explore this holiday.  For more info on the exhibit check it out at WATER exhibit.  For a super cool and informative quiz on water check out KnowH2O Water Quiz .  For more cool sites on water check out these cool websites:
