Peace Tribe Rising
Peace Tribe Rising is all about empowering the peacemakers and people who are committed to living together in peace. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict can be viewed as a battle between two tribes with competing religious, national, and historical narratives and identities. We are empowering a new, shared identity: the Peace Tribe. Together, we are unfolding a future of reconciliation, peace and human rights for all the people of the holy land. We come from a wide range of backgrounds: Israelis and Palestinians, Jews, Muslims and Christians, and supporters of all stripes, colors and creeds, in the Middle East, the United States, and around the world. PTR is a project of the Middle East Peace Civic Forum, a 501c3 nonprofit organization.

Yogini Priyanka: Peace Tribe Rising #6, with host Matt Lakenbach
Priyanka is a yoga teacher, coach, and entrepreneur who is dedicated to helping people become lighter - both in spirit and in their bodies. After suffering in a job that she was not well suited for and experiencing impacts on her mental and physical health, Priyanka stumbled upon a yoga class in a public park in her native India and discovered her passion. She dropped everything and embraced yoga and teaching as her life's work. In this episode, Priyanka and Matt discuss how yoga and meditation are an access to peace, healing and health, both within our own selves and in the world at large - including in conflict situations.
