Dear friends,
The work that happened (and did not happen due to Covid-19), is best described in the words of the Volunteer whom we took on precisely to work on the GG Women's Tomatis English Training Project. Do have a look at her report attached.
We're still in lockdown. Let's see what happens in the next few weeks. We're hoping the lockdown will be lifted from June 01st. Of course, we can't go back to how things were before, and masks, social distancing, washing hands, sanitizing frequently touched furniture, etc, will all be part of the protocol when we re-start both at the Lab and at Tomatis. There is an opportunity to take the project forward post-Covid that has appeared in collaboration with another Auroville organization, working with village women north of Auroville. We'll let you know if and as and when that develops.
Meanwhile, please have a look at what young Pratyusha had to say about her work on the project and her experience. Attaching her report as well as the recommendation we did for her. PLEASE OPEN THESE ATTACHMENTS.
Hope all of you are staying safe and healthy, and that none of you have experienced any losses in your families due to Covid-19. Auroville has, thankfully, remained Covid-free throughout this period.
Lots and lots of love from Auroville,
Mita
PS: I just opened an Instagram account. I'll share photos and videos about the building, Tomatis, the Lab, as well as general reflections and insights, team photos, updates, things I am learning, raw vegan recipes I am experimenting with, etc. In case you are on Instagram, please follow me: https://www.instagram.com/mitaralltomatis/
