MUSIC The Children's Music Network An international organization with an outstanding journal, "Pass It On!" and inspiring national and regional conferences open to educators, families, and performers.   EDUCATION Oak Grove School Oak Grove School offers innovative early childhood, elementary, junior high school programs, a college-preparatory high school, and a family-style boarding program all nourished by the educational vision of its founder, philosopher and educator J. Krishnamurti. Small classes in a natural environment are guided by experienced teachers who encourage discovery and inquiry while supporting exceptional academic, creative and personal growth. Brockwood Park School  The philosopher and educator Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895-1986), one of whose primary concerns was right education, founded Brockwood Park School in 1969. The intentions of the School, stated in Krishnamurti's many public talks and books, can be summarised as follows: * To educate the whole human being * To explore what freedom and responsibility are in relationship with others and in modern society * To see the possibility of being free from self-centred action and inner conflict * To discover one's own talent and what right livelihood means * To encourage excellence in academic studies * To learn the proper care, use and exercise of the body * To appreciate the natural world, seeing our place in it and responsibility for it * To find the clarity that may come from having a sense of order and valuing silence.   YOGA I personally have found hatha yoga to be a most important part of my life. It keeps my body healthy and in tune so I can life fully. I do a hot yoga practice at home which I learned from attending classes over the years. I often need a teacher to help me with alignment issues. It is difficult to recommend a type of yoga because there are so many varieties. So what works for me may not work for another. I list several links. Yet explore and don't be limited to my selections. Also, listen to your own body for guidance on what to eat, how much sleep you need and what kind of exercise you body craves. Your body may be happy with a long walk each day and not ask for more. The body has an intelligence that if we listen to it, we will not be in conflict with it and we will remain relatively healthy.
