Sattva — The quality of positivity + truth that creates harmony, balance + awakening, generates selfless service, purity of heart, control over senses, truthfulness + compassion toward other beings.
Hi friends—
Dan, Tracy M., + Hannah here! We are two recovering alcoholics + the sister of an addict who lost his life to the disease last year.
While the paths that have led us here are at once the same and vastly different, we are united in the pain + powerlessness that the diseases of alcohol + substance addiction present + we are also joined through our personal + volunteer experiences within Chattanooga’s recovery community + in the deep belief that the practice of yoga, both on + off the mat and in a myriad of ways, has perpetually saved us, + offered us a way back to ourselves. We want the same for anyone in recovery who wishes to give yoga a try without financial burden.
Mission
The Sattva foundation is committed to making yoga accessible to those battling addiction.
Core Values
Belonging
Equity
Self Stewardship + Community Stewardship
