Alternatives

Because it's Monday, I thought it's a perfect day to try something new, so I checked out Anti Gravity Yoga. It's a class offered at Crunch Gym in West Hollywood that has hammocks suspended from the ceiling allowing you to stretch and float in midair like a Cirque de Soleil performer. Not only is it unique and fun, but it is a tougher workout than floor yoga because you stretch further and it takes more core strength to maintain poses without gravity!

If being suspended in midair doesn't appeal to you, then maybe you would like to put your energy into a trip that can help others. The Rainbow Fund is a charitable organization which uses 100%, yes ALL, of the donations to help those in need. Go to Haiti to help plant a garden of vegetables, or take the Rainbow Bus to Tijuana to help eradicate Aids by delivering supplies to a clinic and some orphanages.

And if you want to put your money into something that is good for the planet, check out Alt Energy Stock's website which has information on companies that are working with or on wind, solar, and biofuel projects. They even have Mutual Funds and ETFs if you don't want to single out one company.

It's nice to have so many alternatives to lift your body, soul, and finances to new heights.
