Seane Corn: More than Good Hair

YJSF-4.jpgSeane Corn has good hair. As someone whose lived a lifetime with mousy brown baby fine hair, I can attest that it's truly something of trademark proportions. Seriously, it's that good ... which reminds me of a funny story.

I first saw Seane at the Estes Park Yoga Journal Conference last September. The event was held at the beautiful YMCA of the Rockies venue, and while most of the people were there for the conference, there were some "non-yogi" types on the grounds.

One afternoon, a gentleman was walking near the main pavilion when he collapsed to the ground, most likely as a result from the effects of altitude. Seane, who happened to be nearby, quickly went to his aid and knelt down beside him.

As the man came to, he opened his eyes to this angelic vision with long, curly, golden hair and sparkling blue eyes. Taking one look at her, he stammered out his first words of consciousness ... "Wow, you have pretty hair." And though HE probably thought he was seeing an angel, everyone else knew he was gonna be just fine.

On Thursday, I attended an intensive on Spiritual Activism which was led by Seane Corn, Suzanne Sterling and Hala Khouri. These three women are partners in the initiative Off the Mat, Into the World described as "a program that aims to inspire and guide you to find and define your purpose and become active in your local or global community in an effective, sustainable and joyful way."

There is much to share about what these women are doing, and I encourage you to check out their site for more information. Suffice it to say, there's definitely a lot more to Seane Corn than good hair. Perhaps that man at Estes Park really DID see an angel after all.

if a good hair day makes for a good day, then naturally great hair must make for a great life!

The title made me LOL! Great to read these updates, makes me wish I was there.
