Workshops for Veterans

The Nature Process Workshop for Veterans, presented by the Milkweed Mercantile at Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage, will be guided by Sami Aaron, a registered yoga and meditation teacher, Master Nature Process Facilitator, and Level 1 Instructor in Mindful Resilience for Trauma Recovery with the Veterans Yoga Project.

This workshop is offered to U.S. Military Veterans to provide yoga, meditation and nature-connected tools to enhance their emotional and physical health while building a supportive community.  

Our goal with this request for funding is to offer these 3-night/4-day weekend workshops at minimal expense to the attendees.

Our goal is to have all items funded except for a $50 deposit to be paid by each attendee, along with the cost of their own transportation to and from Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage.

 Veterans Yoga Project, 965 Shorepoint Court, #305, Alameda CA 94501  Be sure to write “Nature Process Weekend Retreats” in the memo.

Note: excess funds that are not needed for these workshops will be held by the Veterans Yoga Project to fund yoga and mindfulness classes for Veterans in the Greater Kansas City Area.  These classes will be taught by yoga teachers who have been trained by the Veterans Yoga Project.
