It's the season of giving and this year I am pledging to support our oceans– and invite you to join me. For every copy of my online Yoga for Freediving course sold between now and 31st January 2018, I will donate 20% ($10) directly to Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.
I have known about Sea Shepherd for many years, but when fellow Dahabian, and vegan chef Sheila Hanney started joining their missions, in the Faroe Islands and then the Sea of Cortez in Mexico, I really began to wake up to the absolutely vital work that these guys do. Their missions carry out the dirty frontline work that many of us would be too shocked to witness – intercepting illegal fishing boats, and hauling illegal nets out of the oceans containing the dead bodies of literally hundreds of sea creatures, from fish to turtles, up to dolphins, sharks and whales. It is back-breaking, heart-breaking, but essential work. When I think about the dedication of these selfless people, I want to cry. I am so, so honoured to play a small part in funding some of their amazing work.
To find out more about the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society watch my inspirational video interview with former volunteer, Sheila Hanney.
Support a great cause this year while also giving yourself and your buddies the gift of healthier oceans and a huge head-start on next year’s training.. Click here to purchase your online course and give $10 directly to Sea Shepherd.
Sea Shepherd runs missions and campaigns around the world, including carrying out vital research, activism and education, and political lobbying. They are always in need of funds or volunteers. To find out how else you might get involved go to www.seashepherd.org.
Sending you love and well wishes this holiday season.
With deep love and hugs,
