Stay tuned for the results of this Wake Forest study wich began in February 2010. "The primary goal of this R21 pilot grant is to obtain preliminary data on the efficacy of Integral Yoga for reducing self-reported menopausal hot flashes. Secondary aims are to determine the impact of yoga on objective hot flashes and other outcomes and study feasibility. Our primary hypothesis will be a greater reduction in subjective hot flash frequency and severity in the yoga group than in two control groups. Secondary outcomes will include a greater reduction in objective hot flash frequency; a greater decrease in hot flash interference; and greater improvement in sleep, other symptoms, mood, perceived stress, and overall quality of life in the yoga group."

Just wanted to share information on some charitites you may want to consider support relief for Haiti's recovery.
The PRASAD Project is partnering with Direct Relief International. For those of you who do not know, the PRASAD Project..."is an international, not-for-profit organization committed to improving the quality of life of economically disadvantaged people around the world... The PRASAD Project was initiated in 1992 by Gurumayi Chidvilasananda, the spiritual head of the Siddha Yoga path, and is the philanthropic expression of the SYDA Foundation, the central organization of the Siddha Yoga Path."
Please visit the link below to learn more about the PRASAD Project and as a great way to offer tangible support to those in need in Haiti:
