Dear TAO Family and Friends,

Regardless of where you live when you are not at TAO, March is a month when we feel a change in the weather. Some will mourn the loss of ski season, others will be heading home from TAO and some are looking forward to the end of a challenging winter

Here we are having fun. The ocean is warm and clear like the skies and the many changes we face are tempered by our love of nature and the way it sooths us.

Let nature be your source of reflection and fresh perspectives this month.

As for the weather, March in Mexico is usually dry and warm to hot. The third Monday is a holiday in commemoration of Benito Juarez' birthday, and the Spring Equinox where thousands flock to the main Temple of Kukulkan at Chichen Itza to witness the play of light and shadow which shows a serpent descending the stairs of the temple.

My quote of the month: Put your heart, mind, and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success - Swami Sivananda.

Happy March

Isaac Henares
Operations Director
