“There is nothing to do but be in your process and to recognize that others are in their process.”
~ Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen
The biggest and most profound skill you will learn when working and traveling abroad is the ability to adapt. While 2020 has brought many challenges, the new era has shed light on the things that are foundational yet lacking or missing in life: gratitude, community, and compassion, as well as, systemic changes that must occur for the betterment of humanity and Mother Nature.
Our ability to adapt to this new chapter is not merely for our own survival, but the ability for the whole world to thrive.
It is during this time that Madeleine Bong Yoga emerged from the pure necessity of bringing more people together through the connection of the Self.
