Yoga is something that requires a strong discipline and mindset. It asks you to channel another part of your spirit and demonstrate growth. Adding goats to the mix throws that all out the window, however Oasis TLC Farms has a way to set Goat Yoga back into that path with their vision and mission!
I keep forgetting that we have fully functioning farms in NJ, so when I saw an event called "Goat Yoga on Oasis Farms" I was flooded with excitement. After I begged maybe 4 people to come with me, my friend Deeana, with just as much enthusiasm as myself decided to come along. They provide a mat and food to feed the babies! As the instructor tried his hardest to get the group on task, you can't help but hear laughs bursting from everyone as the goats get up close and personal by climbing on you or harassing you for food.
I think what I enjoyed even more than the goat yoga itself was hearing the story of the farm. Oasis is a TLC or Therapeutic Life Center that is a developed program for autistic adults in order to promote inclusion and acceptance. The work that they do and their mission is absolutely remarkable. I love the opportunity for meaningful work and the support in the transitional life process that they provide for this population. Taking a visit to this location is a must because you are not only supporting a farm, but a philosophy of love and acceptance. For more information click the link: Oasis TLC Farms
