Smokin Yogi is looking for aspiring filmmakers and writers to share healing stories of positive potentiality in their "Manure for the Garden" and "Hot Chocolate" contests! Submit a short inspiring story in a written or video form that transforms life's "dung" into nourishment for the garden or send in a soothing, stimulating, nutritious, and delicious story specifically related to help those going through familial challenges and enter for a chance to win cash prizes. Stories must inspire hope and encouragement, fully reflecting the objective of an uplifting message inspired by an unpleasant shift in life.
The deadline for entries is September 28th. Each category accepts written or video formats and has a winning prize of $200 and a presentation at "Shift Happens"!

Balancing a love of art with a passion for supporting women in commerce, SMOKIN’ YOGI provides products that are as meaningful as they are entertaining.
Smokin' Yogi focuses on projects that offer the public an avenue to thoughtfully consider subjects that are prevalent everywhere, and yet remain taboo for many—e.g., divorce, mental illness, sexuality, money, etc.
| Their newly published book, 'Relational Shifts, A Family Doesn't Have To End Just Because A Marriage Does,' details one such story—co-authored by Smokin' Yogi Visions founder, Julie Rappaport, along with her former husband of 17 years and their teenage daughter—the family's own personal story of their journey through divorce to the other side of their 'relational shift.' Relational Shifts is available in Twin Cities, Chicago and L.A. Borders locations and Amazon.com. |
In addition, Smokin' Yogi is creating a webseries called Abnormally Normal that parallels and highlights many of the issues discussed in the book, Relational Shifts. The demo-pilot for Abnormally Normal, “Just Breathe, Part I, She Says...” has been awarded a Fiscal Sponsorship by IFP MN, as an Independent Feature Project. Abnormally Normal had its premiere screening at the Swansea Bay Film Festival, Wales, UK, June, 2007.
