About #MindfulMarch
The largest global yoga fundraising initiative during Brain Injury Awareness Month, #MindfulMarch will raise funds to support the LoveYourBrain Yoga program as well as build awareness for the prevalence of TBI.

After participating in LYB’s Yoga program TBI community members report more satisfaction with their:

- Ability to carry out day-to-day activities
- Feelings and emotions
- Personal and social life
- Current situations and future prospects
