Sleepinar Wrap Up - Night Renewal

A guest at the Sleepinar testing one of COCOMAT's beds SoHo

The first in a series of our Sleepinars held at COCO- MAT Soho on Thursday October 18th was both fun and informative. I'd like to take the opportunity now to thank everyone who attended as your feedback has been tremendous! Clearly we are hitting on a nerve as 60% of North Americans including children are sleep deprived. Many elements were incorporated into the 3.5 hour workshop by our featured presenters who covered different aspects of the benefits of a night of sound sleep.  Were people surprised when Michael Jackson or Brahms appeared on the soundtrack of Maher Benham's Art of the Lullaby?  Sure they were and expecting the unexpected is part of the fun. Movement, meditation, pressure points and questionaires kept everyone alert and engaged. A note of thanks to the staff of COCO MAT who layed out a beautiful spread of anti - oxidant fruits with complimentary camomile tea for our guests. Blueberries, bananas, figs, almonds,walnuts, tomato and feta cheese salad and even mangoes were all provided free of charge making for a decidedly generous and  opulent evening. Door prizes included the heavenly lavender filled aromatherapy pillows in trademark cotton bags, samples of Sensé Night Renewal Cream, a certificate for free private 90 minute yoga session with Maher Benham, a copy of  Karen Yanku's  OanaMassage CD, a book on nutrition courtesy of Sheryl Rosenthal, AADP,  and an extra surprise in the form of a toxin free soy  aromatherapy candle hand poured by Paige's Perfections a Brooklyn based company.

"That was an interesting evening - I really enjoyed.  I even tried a few of the exercises and pressure points.  I suspect one of my problems is the fact that I spend too many hours at the computer and can't easily quiet my brain..." - Sharon K.

At last a spiritual interfaith based approach to turning the tide in favor of water. I sent a suggestion to Food and Water Watch a few weeks back that we  all intercede using a technology that is powerful and emanates from the heart; Prayer or Meditation. Time passed. Then I got a notice asking for my participation on  October 29th in this different kind of action. Please join us whether you are  near or far. Visualize the change of heart in the "powers that be".  Feel it  Meditate on it, Change this for our Mother Earth. Thank you.  - Ekayani

Join Us for a Statewide Day of Spiritual Action....!!!! "On October 29, interfaith leaders across the state will be holding faith vigils in their own communities, calling on Governor Cuomo to ban fracking in New York."

I am going! See link for details.  There are inside locations in case of rain. The list seems to be growing. Please spread the word, the vibration, the heart felt prayer. 2012 is on!
