Last year Akon initiated a partnership to reach the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) by 2030 alongside participating US states to meet their renewable energy goals. In 2014 Akon first began addressing the immediate needs of Africans through an initiative known as “Akon Lighting Africa.” More than two-thirds of the population of sub-Saharan Africa was without electricity and more than 85 percent of those living in rural areas lacked access. Since launching in 2014, Akon's group has operations in 14 nations, including Guinea, Senegal, Mali, Niger, Benin and Sierra Leone. Now, Akon has launched Akon Lighting America to create cost-effective utility scale energy solutions and renewable energy solutions for low income housing communities.

On November 15th & 16th we are joining together for #AkonLightingLA - a two day urban conscious experience in music, art and awareness highlighting solutions like solar energy and sustainable practices while enjoying an atmosphere of art, activities, vegan food and like-minds ✨

Join us as we come together with shared intention to celebrate the spirit and be a catalyst for positive change in the world.

Our podcast co-host, Sarah, who is also a yoga and meditation instructor, teaches an ancient practice called Kemetic Yoga.

Kemetic Yoga is a healing and regenerative yoga system based on the principles, philosophy, science and sacred geometry of Kemet -the ancient name of Egypt.

Here she is featured sharing more about the practice on CNN’s travel trends special.
Sarah and Joey Nittolo, founder of The Space Between, crossed paths in Egypt in 2018 and it was there that Joey and Sarah talked about the amazing things happening in Africa that led to discussing Akon’s project, Akon Lighting Africa. Fast forward to 2019 and The Space Between and Akon have partnered with DisclosureFest to create AKON LIGHTING LA - a two day urban conscious experience in music and art. Tickets to AKON Lighting LA are available now at spacebetween.com or the link in bio.

Solar power also requires little to no maintenance. For example, household solar panels typically require only a few cleanings a year with a 20 to 25 year warranty on the solar panels. - Stanford University #GetLitLA #TheLightInYou #AkonLightingLA

Yogi Bhajan, a Master of Kundalini Yoga by the age of 16 — itself a rare feat —gave his first lecture at a Los Angeles high school gym on January 5, 1969. Then a 39-year-old recent emigre from India, he left behind a government career in order to realize the vision of bringing Kundalini Yoga to the West. No matter that not a single person was present that evening; he came to teach and he proceeded to speak to the empty hall. -Kundalini Research Institute .

In the shamanic view, mental illness signals “the birth of a healer,” explains Malidoma Patrice Somé. Thus, mental disorders are spiritual emergencies, spiritual crises, and need to be regarded as such to aid the healer in being born.

What those in the west view as mental illness, the Dagara people (pictured above) regard as “good news from the other world.” The person going through the crisis has been chosen as a medium for a message to the community that needs to be communicated from the spirit realm. Dr. Somé comments:

Mental disorder, behavioral disorder of all kinds, signal the fact that two obviously incompatible energies have merged into the same field.
These disturbances result when the person does not get assistance in dealing with the presence of the energy from the spirit realm.

In the Dagara tradition, the community helps the person reconcile the energies of both worlds–”the world of the spirit that he or she is merged with, and the village and community.” That person is able then to serve as a bridge between the worlds and help the living with information and healing they need. Thus, the spiritual crisis ends with the birth of another healer. “The other world’s relationship with our world is one of sponsorship,” Dr. Somé explains. “More often than not, the knowledge and skills that arise from this kind of merger are a knowledge or a skill that is provided directly from the other world.” -Uplift #WorldMentalHealth #mentalhealthawareness #GetLitLA #TheLightInYou #malidomasome

Today is World Mental Health Day- a day for global mental health education, awareness and advocacy against social stigma. It was first celebrated in 1992 at the initiative of the World Federation for Mental Health, a global mental health organization with members and contacts in more than 150 countries.
Let’s come together to truly understand what we consider mental illness and de-stigmatize the conversation about mental health. Without such linear approach and understanding, we can observe these experiences with new lenses opening up alternative methods of healing and transcendence. In ancient culture and indigenous tradition, common ‘symptoms’ of ‘’mental illness’ were indications of spiritual awakening and often precursors for shamanic and ritualistic training. Sacred medicine was used to take the initiate further into themselves, unravel illusions of the world and ignite the light within them. In modern context, maybe it’s time to take the conversion of mental health forward and see the ways we can understand, transform, alchemize and learn from these experiences instead of ignoring, shaming or dismissing them.

Today is the birthday of Guru Ram Das Ji. Guru Ram Das was the fourth of the ten Gurus of Sikhism. He took forward the legacy of the first three Sikh gurus and made significant contributions to the development of Sikhism. He is especially revered for planning and developing the township of Ramdaspur which became the city of Amritsar, the holiest city of the Sikhs.
Also known by Guru Arjan Dev, he initiated the compilation of the Holy book, the present Guru Granth Sahib. He contributed more than 2,000 hymns himself and wrote the Sukhmani Sahib Bani. There are total 5894 hymns in Guru Granth Sahib, out of which more than 2000 are of Guru Arjan Dev. #HappyEarthday Guru Ram Das Ji ♥️

The Dogon are an indigenous group of people who currently live in the west African country of Mali. Essentially untouched by outside cultures, they have been able to maintain independence from external influence and continue a civilization that is believed to have begun before 3000 B.C.. Evidence suggests that the Dogon migrated from ancient Egypt to their present location to escape a forced conversion to Islam in the 1500s. Due to their isolation and commitment to preserve indigenous teachings and tradition, they have a unique and vast knowledge of astronomy, biology and social and political philosophy. Each aspect of Dogon life has a practical and spiritual value. They have been able to maintain a unique social harmony among their civilization where murder, theft, suicide and even greed are rare. Disputes are handled by debate in an open forum. Their deep understanding of matter, life and the origin of the universe has sparked the interest of modern scholars and academics.
