Peace Inside Live [/tech-for-a-better-world/ This story is part of Tech for a Better World, stories about the diverse teams creating products, apps and services to improve our lives and society.]Last Friday afternoon, instead of spending my lunch break glued to my kitchen table eating a sad salad, I found myself dancing in a frenzy around my house, joined by about 15 others unselfconsciously doing the same on a Zoom call. We threw our arms in the air and spun around -- some in workout clothes, some in dresses, some with dogs in their arms. It wasn't a quarantine-induced simultaneous breakdown, but a live yoga and movement class called Rhythm & Prana Flow. The class is part of [ Peace Inside Live], an online platform born during the pandemic that offers daily, live, donation-based Zoom sessions with facilitators from around the world, focusing on mindfulness, meditation and movement. The goal is to make wellness accessible to everyone, no matter their financial situation or location. [ ] "There's always been a barrier to entry in the wellness industry, and we've realized that and want to be part of the solution, not the problem," said cofounder Shira Lazar, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-thai-lan-bangkok-pattaya-5-ngay.html tour thái lan] who is also founder and CEO of the digital media brand [ What's Trending]. "We realize how important it is to provide these tools to everyone." Since Peace Inside Live started at the end of April, about 4,000 people have attended its virtual classes. Class sizes range from intimate groups of a few students to more than 100 people. When you take a class, you'll likely meet people from all over the world, and will learn from the community that forms as well as from the facilitator. "We have this opportunity with the pandemic to make big change," said cofounder Jordana Reim, a former ad executive and producer who became a yoga teacher and healing trainer. "If we're just waiting for things to be normal again, we're missing the opportunity to question how each of us have been living, and what's perhaps missing. And practices of mindfulness can bring us to a place where we can take an honest but loving look into ourselves." CNET Coronavirus Update Keep track of the coronavirus pandemic. Daily classes for a donation Lazar and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-thai-lan-bangkok-pattaya-5-ngay.html tour thái lan giá rẻ] Reim have known each other for about 15 years, across different careers and stages of life. When the pandemic hit, Reim had been hosting wellness retreats in places like Thailand and Mount Everest, which were no longer an option. She decided to try moving those retreat sessions online to see if they could still be beneficial without the in-person connection. Lazar attended one, and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-thai-lan-bangkok-pattaya-5-ngay.html tour đi thái lan] the two decided to collaborate on making a daily platform. "The whole idea was to create peace inside, literally and figuratively," Lazar said. You can find live classes on Peace Inside Live every day. Offerings include different types of meditation, breathing, movement, healing through sound, and studying happiness through the ancient Hindu scripture the Bhagavad Gita. There are also yoga and other workshops. When you take a live class, you can donate directly to the facilitator through Venmo or PayPal. Facilitators often suggest a donation of $5 to $20 per class, and keep 100% of their earnings from their classes. You can also donate to access on-demand monthly classes. The average monthly donation is $15. While this payment model may change in the future, for now, it's been working to build a community, Lazar said. "We want to see what works for people, and we want to be sensitive and aware of people's needs and ability to pay for this," she added. The founders also work with corporations on wellness activities. For every hour they work with a for-profit company on a virtual session, they donate an hour to a nonprofit, like the [ Boys and Girls Clubs of America], [ Miry's List] and [ Thirst Project], bringing mindfulness to those teams that often have many frontline workers. On the Peace Inside Live platform, you can take live classes on meditation and movement for a donation. Peace Inside Live Founding an inclusive community Many people in the wellness community have come under fire for [ whitewashing practices and excluding people of color], both in terms of facilitators and class participants, Lazar said. She and Reim are aware of their white privilege, she added, and have worked to make diversity part of the platform's DNA, rather than trying to make changes later. Facilitators and participants are located around the world, and the founders consistently reach out to BIPOC organizations and leaders to work together and ask how to support their own efforts, Lazar said. Part of this work has involved Sunday Peace Inside Live Conversations, with people including Thupten Jinpala (the Dalai Lama's translator and founder of The Compassion Institute). The week [ ] was killed by police, the platform began hosting twice-monthly discussions called The Other America, facilitated by Lazar and the influencer [ James Andrews]. These events are meant to provide a safe space for uncomfortable conversations around racism, social injustice and police brutality with storytellers, healers and activists. Panelists have included Kailee Scales from [ Black Lives Matter], activist and author [ Blair Imani] and Corey Jacobs, cofounder of the [ Buried Alive Project]. These sessions start with a meditation and turn into a conversation and call to action. "What we have is a global community of people who are taking this look inside and making changes to take skillful action in this world," Reim said. "It's not even a new normal, but creating a world together where we're connected and where we have compassion."

Ahmed Jaghbir (right) is a former business partner of colourful Sydney personality Salim Mehajer, the pair briefly running a wedding planning business together. There's no suggestion Mehajer is in any way involved in this case Salim Mehajer's one-time business partner has been jailed for 11 years after he supplied hitmen with a key to an underworld figure's house, so they could execute him in bed with his mistress. Ahmed Jaghbir, 31, was sentenced on Wednesday over his role in the 2017 death of Hells Angels' associate Kemel 'Blackie' Barakat at his home in Sydney's south. Four armed assassins stormed Barakat's Mortlake unit as he slept with his secret lover, Fatima Hage, about 2.30am on March 10 that year. Barakat died in a hail of bullets and his masked killers have never been arrested or charged. Justice David Davies told the Supreme Court today that Jaghbir, a handyman, had played a major role in Barakat's death by betraying his [http://www.squidoo.com/search/results?q=bikie%20associate bikie associate] friend and supplying his killers with a key. '(Jaghbir's) role in providing the key was a significant one,' the judge told a packed but socially-distanced courtroom. Secret lover: Kemel Barakat was in bed with hairdresser Fatima Hage at the time of his shooting death on March 10, 2017. She gave a vivid statement to a court about the events of that night Love triangle: Barakat is seen above with his wife Amanda.

Jaghbir arranged to have the door replaced and supplied his friend Barakat with a new key. But Justice Davies was convinced Jaghbir also gave a key to someone else - one of the four hitmen - allowing the murderers to surprise Barakat at his Mortlake unit. Murdered: Hell's Angels associate Kemel Barakat was shot dead in his bed The assassins were already in Barakat's bedroom before he and the woman in his apartment, Fatima Hage, realised something was wrong, the judge said. Barakat was gunned down in his bed about 2.30am, reportedly pushing Ms Hage away before he was struck by a hail of bullets. CCTV footage showed his killers scrambling down the stairs and the burned-out husk of a getaway car was later found nearby in Belmore. At trial, the judge found that Barakat's secret lover Ms Hage was a 'credible' witness. They had been together for [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-thai-lan-bangkok-pattaya-5-ngay.html tua du lịch thái lan] only a month, the court heard, and Barakat's wife, Amanda, was holidaying overseas in Thailand at their time of their liaison.. Ms Hage described the night of the assassination in simple, vivid terms in a statement tendered during the trial. She detailed how the room smelled 'like fire' after the bullets flew, Barakat's hushed final prayers in Arabic and the blood that trickled from his mouth at the end. Police found a burnt out car in Belmore shortly following Barakat's assassination in Mortlake, in Sydney's south The crime scene in Mortlake on March 10, 2017. Barakat's unit was on the second floor In her statement, Ms Hage recalled her confusion about the intruders in the room. 'I heard Kemel yell out "hey". I looked around but the room was pitch black. I could not see anything,' she said. 'I felt him push my head really hard. I didn't fall out of the bed but it moved me away from him. 'I then heard multiple gunshots. It was really loud, it smelled like fire in the room.' Kemel was coughing ... He said "I'm sorry" ... I said, "Don't be sorry" Fatima Hage giving evidence at trial Ms Hage said she closed her eyes and put her head down. 'At this point I knew I was going to die. 'I didn't hear anyone say anything, I thought I was dead. 'About a minute went by and I moved from where I put my head down. 'I checked myself and I wasn't shot. I then moved over to Kemel. 'Kemel was coughing and he looked at me. 'He said: 'I'm sorry.' 'I said: "Don't be sorry ... Repeat after me". 'We then went through an Arabic prayer twice before Kemel stopped breathing. 'I turned on the light and saw Kemel lying on the bed. I saw he had blood coming out of his mouth. 'I remember seeing a bullet that looked like it had gone through his leg.' Ms Hage told the court she couldn't remember much else. She was in shock. 'I didn't know if whoever shot him was still in the house so I hid in the bathroom and called 000. 'I asked for ambulance. I can't remember what I said to them.' Ms Hage (on right in left picture, and in right photo) is seen after giving evidence at the trial of Ahmed Jaghbir earlier this year Ms Hage told the court earlier this year that Barakat had been 'anal' about security and their relationship had been a secret to everyone. 'No one knew about our relationship, we didn't want to tell anyone so our private lives remained private,' she said in her statement. Following a judge-alone trial, Justice Davies found Jaghbir guilty to the charge of procuring, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-thai-lan-bangkok-pattaya-5-ngay.html tour thái lan] aiding and counselling unknown persons to murder Barakat. On Wednesday, the judge said he had found no evidence of remorse from Jaghbir, who has always denied the charge. He said Jaghbir was not 'indispensable' to the murder plot - but his actions had helped the killers move 'expeditiously'. The judge said Jaghbir's role was 'no different to a tradesman taking advantage by spending time in someone's home, then conveying knowledge about the layout and where valuable items were kept to a prospective burglar.' He accepted there was not a lot of planning from Jaghbir, and that his role in the crime came about "fortuitously". Jaghbir was sentenced to an 11 year jail term, with a non-parole period of six years and six months. He will be eligible for release on April 9, 2027. The court heard he will be in protective custody 'because he is or might be in risk of retaliatory killings'. Jaghbir is on right, and is seen above with his lawyer Mahmoud Abbas at court during his trial. Jaghbir has been jailed for up to 11 years with a non parole period of six-and-a-half years
