I am participating in Yoga Reaches Out because I want to help Boston Children's Hospital continue its amazing work for kids and families. During this day-long yogathon, more than 1,000 yogis will come together for an inspirational day of yoga, music and fundraising - all to help bring peace and healing to others.

This year your gift will benefit Boston Children's Wellness Program and Every Child Fund.

During our most recent visit to Boston Children's Hospital for my four month old son, Lincoln's, open heart surgery I was able to experience the Family Center and Wellness Program first hand. I took advantage of the yoga, meditation, and reiki that were offered and it truly helped me cope with the stress that comes with a hospital stay. Nothing can prepare you for seeing your child sick and that sinking helpless feeling that comes from a poor health diagnosis. BUT having the amazing team at Boston Children's care so intently for Lincoln and for MY mental and physical health was so relieving. I hope more patients and parents get to experience this level of care and concern during whatever challenges they face.

Support my mission by joining our team of yogis - or by giving a gift to one of our team members.
