NEW UNITY VIDEO & NEWS Our inspiration for this week is a new singalong you can get to know before we premier it this Sunday: |
NOTE: A "Yama" is a moral/spiritual restraint that we maintain in our lives such as harmlessness. A "Niyama" is an observance or spiritual practice such as generosity or meditation. The Yamas and Niyamas can be summarized as "Not doing what hurts and doing what we should do" in order to express our Highest Selves. |

Traffic Information for Sunday April 29th
TRAFFIC DETOUR NOTE: The City of Eugene is holding a marathon and half marathon on Sunday, April 29 from 7:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. The races will block a lot of traffic including parts of Franklin Boulevard, Hilyard and most of East and West Amazon. According to a race official: "It looks like the last runner should pass Fox Hollow (heading north on West Amazon) at 8:50 a.m. so at that point people will be able to cross East and West Amazon freely. By 9:15 a.m., everything south of 30th should be open, meaning people should be able to access Hilyard heading south without any trouble at that time." If you don't want to take any chances, there should be no problem reaching Unity from the west, such as 105 to Jefferson to 18th to Willamette to 40th to Hilyard. You can download a general map if you scroll down near the bottom of this page: https://www.eugenemarathon.com/race-day-details. The race will follow this course:
