Yoga for Breast Cancer Awareness

In case you didn’t notice the masses of pink ribbons everywhere recently, October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month. It seems like a good time for a reminder that earlier this year studies have shown that yoga can improve the outlook and energy of breast cancer patients. (See “Restorative Yoga Helps Cancer Patients”.)

I also know there are many people in the yoga community who are working to raise both awareness and money for the breast cancer cause everyday. I’d love to hear your stories. What are you, your studio, and/or your community doing for Breast Cancer Awareness Month? How has your yoga practice influenced your work?
