How It All Began

LiveGlobally was created to serve children with experiences of MindBody fun in order to build thriving communities and empowered individuals. 

The LiveGlobally seed was germinated while nina be was working with under-resourced children in Harlem in 1973, sharing movement, music and magic. Learning to travel the great racial divide together, children and mentors co-created experiences, performances and moments full of happiness and health.

For the last 4 decades thousands of individuals have joined the LiveGlobally community to serve, learn and grow. The seed that sprouted in Harlem has born fruit in Nairobi, Costa Rica, North Carolina, Virginia, Louisiana and beyond. There is only love and gratitude!

ethos:

A Community of Commitment

Our work as yogis is rooted in a commitment to the service of others. This commitment manifests itself in the real world in a number of ways, but it’s taking the first step that leads to many. And to making a difference.

Compassion and Connection

When we practice compassion for ourselves, it naturally disseminates out, connecting us all to each other. We see ourselves in the eyes of all beings, including the most vulnerable populations and those society has chosen to leave behind.

Alignment and Trust

All of our work in the world begins with an alignment, a common thread that connects us to a community, helping create a foundation of trust. By collaborating with those we serve we build on this foundation, enabling us to help create sustainable, systemic solutions, rooted in the needs outlined by the community.

Co-Creation

By immersing ourselves in those communities we serve and collaborating with their leaders and our shared connections, we better understand the lived experiences of the community. This understanding and co-creation helps us serve better, creating meaningful, lasting and sustainable solutions that trickle out to benefit beyond the immediate collective.

Embracing our Differences

We believe that our differences are what make miracles possible. We are stronger when we work in unity together and our differences help us better support one another.

HOW WE WORK

LiveGlobally projects are co-created in collaboration with partnering organizations, alongside local initiatives, in communities where resources and help are limited. Together, we are stronger and sovereign.

Our Role in the NGO world.

LiveGlobally provides a source of mindful networking that can call out to the greater community of resources, from populations that may have become dis-enfranchised or impoverished. Our assessment paradigm targets the basic needs for health and happiness such as clean water, sustainable non-gmo food, safe environments for learning and skill-building that are requested by the unique environment of each community.

We learn to care and prioritize according to the evidence of shared experience. As an example, when assessing our friends in Nairobi, we live, eat, sleep, bathe, and learn within the community. Through sharing conversations and struggles, we have come to understand that there is a standard of biological wealth needed to sustain and support thriving.
