"Those things that nature denied to human sight
she revealed to the eyes of the soul." Ovid


Mission
We are a worldwide network of Yoga practitioners and teachers linked by the belief that value-driven Yoga practices can overcome today’s global challenges and our collective illusion of separation. We are driven by ethical actions and cultivate mindfulness in our yoga practice and our daily lives. We host yoga events around the world and share resources to continuously initiate the change within that will transform our planet and benefit all beings.
 
We trust it is our responsibility to respond to the challenges of our time such as declining ethical and spiritual values, deteriorating health, injustices towards minority cultures, or disrespect for environmental sustainability, among others.  Based on combined years of experience in international development and yogic practices, we believe the best way to achieve this is through Expanding Consciousness.
 
We promote Yoga Ethics in our practice and in our life, confident that the change within will soon reflect in the world at large; we host yoga retreats and trainings in sacred places; we support yoga teachers through our network and shared resources; and we are inspired by fusing modern science and ancient wisdom of Yoga.
 
We are a non-profit organization with members in all continents guided by the values of Non-Violence, Non-Greed, Self-Discipline and Truthfulness, applied in speech, intention and through actions like vegetarianism, carbon offsetting, community work, constant practice and self-study.

Vision
We envision a world where the most precious resources of the earth are tendered sparingly and shared fairly; where we are bound by our realization of oneness, and where we are strengthened in our equanimity, supported by our deeply- rooted Happiness, Love and Compassion. A world where we continuously build a community of beings, relentlessly expanding consciousness through yoga and enlightening practices integrated into all our actions words and thoughts.
 
Hence we work for a planet where the values of democracy, transparency, and generosity applies without exception and where ethics is the basis of actions of individuals and organizations alike.
 
We strive for a world where we can move freely with the flow, just as a nomad, in harmony with our need for belonging, and interdependence with the human and natural environment.  We see a world where yoga, nature and silence continue to assist nomads in discovering their unique talents, the intrinsic value of their life’s purpose, and their ability to see the spark of the Divine burning in every heart.
