On a lighter note, here is a great event for all of you yoga lovers. Yoga pro or not, attend the Global Mala event on Sunday, September 23 at 9am.
The Global Mala is an international event in which people all over the world will be practicing yoga simultaneously in honor of the UN International Day of Peace, from Hong Kong to Tel Aviv, London to Cape Town, Sydney to the hub event in Los Angeles.

Hundreds of people here in Chicago will be gathered at Grant Park to practice together- this is a great opportunity to get a nice easy workout outside with a number of people who share your passion! If you love the feeling that yoga gives you, just imagined it amplified – this is one of the intended effects of the event. Kind of like a “yoga marathon” but not so strenuous.

The goal is to raise awareness of peace and other issues such as global warming, aids, and refugees of war, and to generate change on an individual level across the globe, literally.

Celebrity participants include Sting, Jennifer Aniston, Christy Turlington, and Russell Simmons to name a few.
