I spent part of my day at the Shine Center co-leading the men's group on trauma. I felt honored that the male teachers shared their experiences of post election violence with me. I realize I don't live here and I'll be gone when the election happens.  I am an outsider but they let me in.  They shared their stories, played, connected to their power, and did some deep work. The work will continue tomorrow, which is timely. It is the nomination day tomorrow, similar to a primary in the States. I've gotten two alerts from the State Department about how dangerous Kenya is which is both scary and only a snap shot of what is happening here. Lots of things in life are scary and this place, Kenya, is beautiful.  We'll be going into the office in the morning and then heading on a hike to be outside in nature and we'll be hoping for peace as the nominations happen and the election approaches.

We spent our afternoon at Gracious School.  

  

                                                                                                      Anita and the yoga teachers created this sacred circle with the students. 

The best chair poses ever. 

 Jeff ended class with a sweet serenade on the guitar. The students roped him into singing some songs in swahili. So fun.
