Solstice Sadhana Green Team at Summer Solstice 2007
A Greener 2008 Summer Solstice Sadhana Celebration: Led by our Green Yogis, a group of caring and dedicated Solstice participants, we are developing a conscious relationship with the sacred land of Ram Das Puri and our great Mother, the Earth. The Green Yogis have helped in purchasing earth-friendly supplies, processing waste and raising consciousness of the impact of our daily actions on the environment. Last year we reduced our solid waste significantly through composting and recycling practices. We switched to Dr. Bronner’s earth-friendly hand soap, as well as green kitchen cleaners. This year’s goals include increased use of organic food, improving bathroom setup with water-saving toilets and faucets, and offsetting the Summer Solstice carbon dioxide footprint by financing renewable energy projects and planting a tree for every Solstice participant. Learn more. There is so much to do, so if you think we could do even better, please join us, this is how we create our Solstice Sadhana Celebration!

Message from the 3HO Chief Executive Officer
 Sat Nam,
I am thankful that throughout the world humanity shares a day that celebrates and honors our home, Mother Earth. I personally find great healing within Mother Nature and greatly appreciate all that she shares and provides us.
When I learned this month’s focus of our eNewsletter, I asked myself, “How am I taking care of our planet Earth?” Here is how I am doing so: I live in an adobe home that has no central heating or cooling unit in it; the house has a passive solar heating system, a Russian fireplace and a pellet stove, and the water comes from a well. I recycle and compost, all of my toiletries and cleaning products are cruelty-free, chemical-free and mostly organic; sometimes I make these products myself. I bring my own earth-friendly bags to the grocery store, reject plastic bags, don’t buy paper towels or napkins, hang my clothes to dry and drive a Volkswagen Jetta so that a little gas gets me a long way. And of course I am a vegetarian, mostly vegan, but sometimes I cheat and eat dairy. These are just some of the ways that I contribute to Earth’s well-being, and I continue to do just a little bit more each month.
I am grateful that we have started to have more of a green consciousness within 3HO and the Solstice Sadhana events. We will continue to share with you how we are striving to become more green in all that we do.
I would like to take this opportunity to recognize and offer a special thanks to the Solstice Sadhana Green Team – we appreciate your enthusiasm and motivation and are grateful to be working with you.
Happy Earth Day!
Bhajan Kaur
3HO International
