Wire - Sandpoint’s premiere yoga studio, Moontime 28, has remained
strong despite facing a complete financial collapse caused by the
coronavirus after all touch-based services were banned. Reeling from
an instantanenous lack of cash flow, business owner Moon Child,
graciously focused her energy to the internet to help keep the entire
community safe and on the antivirus bandwagon.
Child
took brave steps to convert her studio's online yoga channel into a
positive vocal platform to guide fellow citizens on how to remain
engaged and proactive at any or all costs, even after she had been
forced to lay off her entire staff, lock the doors, roll her last
joint, and presumably file for bankruptcy.
“We
all have to gladly do our part during this crisis. It doesn't matter
that nobody has died from the virus in North Idaho, and that no one
on my staff is at risk. We still gladly support the enforced closure
of the entire community and the loss of all of our revenue and
livelihood, because it might save a life somewhere," Child
stated in a video last Tuesday. "If our employees have to miss a
few mortgage payments, starve their children, or go to suicide
counseling for their despondency, that’s just the price we have to
pay to save lives from this heinous disease running rampant through
our region. What are there now, at least three people infected,
probably hanging out at home watching Tiger King? It's scary stuff.
We can't take any chances, because that would be stupid.”
If
you would like to support Moon Child's encouraging public service
announcements, a GoFundMe account has been set up to help the
struggling business stay afloat during this difficult time. All
donations are appreciated, and proceeds will go toward obtaining
essential supplies from an industry provider located in the green
building just across the state line.
