Message from Ayo Handi-Kendi
In early September, if you like me felt a little relieved that the political conventions were over, how did you unwind?   I thank the Creator daily, that I have been given a simple and effective, stress management tool like "deep breathing"  that helped me cope.  Watching the Republican Convention made me so upset at times, that I was fusing to the t.v.   I then found myself connecting with my breathing to just slow my mind down and un-tense my body.    I also gained a greater respect for the concept of "good stress" too.   As I watched with great pride, Senator Obama's nomination acceptance speech, even such excitement left me feeling little overwhelmed after it was all over.  Again, relaxing and de-stressing with my breathing, did the trick.  

Having used my "deep breathing" to survive  both weeks,  I was inspired to think up a ways to energize us all for the intense, election race ahead through November.  So, I came up a  "Busting Loose for Obama" Rally in October.   In the meantime, come relax with me at several distress workshops and the many festivals, celebrations, and gatherings traditionally held in September.  

Let's all breathe easy, with Black Love and PositivEnergy,
