The Power of… GIVING

Never Too Young for Giving

GIVING. How generous are you? Do you give freely or are there usually strings attached? At a time when your bank account may be lower than last year and the stresses may be higher, it is even more important to understand the power of giving.

It wasn’t easy and often required me to sacrifice “play-time” such as catching the latest movie, for “cerebral time” which usually included taking an exam or researching for another paper. Since it was a goal I wanted to achieve, I worked steadily on it over the last few years.

National Institutes of Health

THE BUZZ… On Friday, I had the honor of speaking at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland.

I gave a keynote speech on “Yoga as a Corporate Stress Management Tool.”
