The Government says touching animals is unsanitary, what do you think?

Have we become a society that can’t touch animals?

I think this is part of the problem, we have banned ourselves to death by our Government. I see women carrying those hand sanitizers with them everywhere they go. The minute they or their child touch something they get a squirt and clean off their hands.

The Problem

Children grow up afraid to hug or touch anything. What happened to playing in the dirt and building our immune system?  We have antibacterial soaps, sprays, wipes and a myriad of harmful disinfecting cleaning products. Kids are growing up in clean, disinfected, sterile environment. We go to great lengths to make sure we are protected from germs. At the same time, we have rising rates of allergies, autoimmune problems and gut related disorders ie…IBS, Crone’s disease, yeast and many more.
In fact, some research says that widespread use of disinfecting and antibacterial products are preventing proper formation of healthy gut bacteria and that restoring this beneficial bacteria could be the key to boosting immune function, reducing inflammation and reducing rates of allergies or digestive problems and even improving mental health.  Did you know that research has shown that inflammation in the gut is the cause of depression?

Solution

Play in the dirt and hold animals especially baby animals.  Washing your hands with soap and water before you eat or use the rest room teaches children to be sanitary.  The residents of NYC are being denied just like Washington, DC residents the stress release modality of goat yoga, WHY, you ask?  Because there is a law that forbids the touching of animals in a building.  There are laws on the books to protect us.  But my question is what are we protecting ourselves from with that law?

The Washington, DC health department won’t even respond to my emails anymore about what it would take for them to approve goat yoga in Washington, DC.  They continue to say that I must be a certified wildlife handler.  The USDA controls those certifications and they say goat yoga doesn’t qualify for a wildlife handler certification.  It is a catch 22.

The bottom line is we need dirt in our lives to be a healthy society.  I’m more than willing to help the states rewrite their laws so that residents that want to relax using goat yoga can do so.  If you are in a position to help me reach the states that have these laws please contact me.

Play in the dirt, build a strong immune system and relax with goat yoga.

We have goat yoga scheduled every month through the end of the year.

Goat yoga gets boot by NY health nannies. Upstate New York farmers and yogis are now banned from bringing goats down to the big city for pop-up exercise events. On Sunday, the organizers of a Bushwick-based pop-up goat yoga class put out a statement announcing that the New York City Department of Health had denied their application for a permit. The class had been scheduled to run on Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning this week. “The 45-minute session was expected to be just like “regular yoga,” except adorable baby goats would roam around the practitioners,” reports AM New York.

“Goat yoga is something new to NYC and therefore uncharted territory when it comes to the permit application,” the group’s statement read. “After weeks of communication and brainstorming, we feel that the concept of goat yoga is just not possible within the laws of the city at this time.”

Gilbertsville Farmhouse—which offers the classes upstate at its farm—was initially “very optimistic” about the Brooklyn class because “the health department was intrigued and receptive to the idea,” it said. The problem seemed to turn on a new York City rule banning goats from being held inside a city building.

Holding goats is not a planned part of the goat-yoga class, but it could happen.

The Health Department said that it ultimately had to deny the permit because of the city’s ban on direct physical contact with certain animals inside buildings.
