The last eight months in the paradise of the Hawaiian Island of Maui has been very tumultuous since the devastating fires of August 8, 2023. But the resilience of its residents is apparent.
We continue to serve by offering free wellness classes both on the ground in West Maui as well as many virtual class offerings. Most importantly it offers community and connection for those still feeling effects from the fire and its aftermath.
Having partnered with MEO, we are able to hire a staff member later this month to help run our programs as well as still searching for a partner location to hold indoor classes. Outdoor classes have continued as available due to the rainy season, with meditation, tai chi and yoga classes at beach parks and hubs.
Thank you for supporting this program and the people of Maui. It is imperative that survivors know they are not alone and can help control their post traumatic stress and anxiety with natural, self directed care.
