Don a sari (mine is hot pink!), sip specialty chai tea, and join us for a celebration of all things India. Along with a few Tranquil Space yogis, I have recently returned from a 10-day adventure in Rishikesh and am excited to share tales from the trip.

This special evening will include photos and videos of our journey, henna painting, yummy Indian cuisine, chai tea and chocolate from Catalyst Tea, a trunk show featuring Indian-made malas, clothing, and accessories, and more. In addition, peruse products from Nest’s Indian loan communities and learn about Nest‘s annual fundraiser, Nestination 2011, a celebration of India’s cultures and artisan traditions. The benefit will conclude with my debut of Lokah Samasta Sukino Bhavantu on the harmonium and a mini meditation around an altar.

Suggested $10 donation to benefit the India charity of your choice: Help in Suffering or Envrionment Support Group. All trunk show proceeds will also benefit these important charities. See photos from the India jaunt here and here. RSVP via our Facebook event or simply show up! Namaste.
