  • Global Breath • 1809 Chapel Hill Road • 919-645-7070 • info@globabreath.org • Website • Facebook • Instagram • We are in the midst of a collective awakening, and we are learning what our responsibility is, as white people, as white business owners, and as a community that is nowhere near as diverse as it could/should be.

    It is past time to wake up, to listen and to pay attention. At Global Breath, we deeply value inclusivity, accessibility, authenticity, integrity, and love and compassion for all beings. And as a business, we have tended to stay silent on some of the bigger issues that happen in the world, in order to offer people a place of respite from the political noise. We have learned that this is not truly yoga.
    As two white owners with a mostly white staff and community, we understand that our silence is not acceptable. We must challenge ourselves and each other to do more, to do better. We know that it is imperative that we use the privilege that we inherited from a deliberately rigged system that is biased in our favor, and our platform within our community, to do everything we can about the violence and injustices that are happening towards Black people.

    We know that this practice starts within ourselves. Looking deeply at the racial bias and prejudice that is imbedded within our beings, and how this manifests and translates into our reality and our environment. We don’t have all of the answers, and we are learning what steps to take, so we are starting here. We are using our voices to speak up, and say that this is not ok.

    Global Breath believes: Black Lives Matter; trans rights are human rights; accessibility is imperative to inclusivity; all humans deserve housing, food, and healthcare regardless of ability, citizenship status, or class; science is real; humans are valuable and important at all ages.

    We have made commitments to do better. These commitments will change and evolve, as we learn and listen. We will mess up, and we are dedicated to doing better, being called out, and being called in.
