Welcome to Commune, a global wellness community and online course platform featuring some of the world's greatest teachers.

We are on a mission to inspire, heal, pass down wisdom, and bring the world closer together.

This is the Commune podcast where each week we explore the ideas and practices that help us

live this healthy, connected, and purpose-filled life. In addition to our courses on yoga,

meditation, and personal development,

Commune also offers an array of social impact courses, including unwinding prejudice,

redefining leadership, and organize a march.

If you are interested in enrolling in any of these course offerings for free,

please email me at Jeff Kay at Onecommun.com.
