Still, the tourists thought Nuevo Yibeljoj was worth the inconvenience. The 96 families there are members of Las Abejas (the Bees), a lay Catholic group that was the target of an infamous 1997 massacre by paramilitaries in nearby Acteal. Amid clucking chickens and barefoot children, they welcomed the tourists with candles, incense and an hour-long prayer ceremony in Tzotzil. Agustin Vazquez, 34, a coffee farmer, told how he heard shots during the massacre, ran to Acteal and found pools of blood everywhere--and his niece and her three children among the dead. He thanked Global Exchange for its contributions...

On entry, for instance, you should slip off shoes and put on slippers or go barefoot on tatami mats (that are usually in the dining room and bedrooms). Wear a separate pair of slippers in the bathroom (forgetting to change back and walking around in lavatory shoes is a horrifying faux pas). In the anteroom of bathing rooms, disrobe and wash vigorously under the showers. Only when spotless can you soak...
Where there's a yoga blitz, there must be yoga biz. To dress for a class, you need only some old, loose-fitting clothes--and since you perform barefoot, no fancy footwear. Yet Nike and J.Crew have developed exercise apparel, as has Turlington. For those who prefer stay-at-home yoga, the video-store racks groan with hot, moving tapes.
