Is ESOAL Safe?

ESOAL 2010 starts next Wednesday. As we’ve discussed before, ESOAL is physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually unsafe. The list of injuries is long including staph infections (one that almost killed an intern and led to a month long quarantine), broken and dislocated bones, panic attacks, hypothermia, diabetic issues and more. Keep in mind that in some (many?) cases, these issues went undetected by the TM “medic.” There have also been many reports of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, due in no small part to ESOAL.

If you’d like to see footage of people rolling through vomit and the other pleasantries of ESOAL, click here and here.

Since ESOAL is just around the corner, I put together this little mashup that shows exactly how “safe” ESOAL is. Sources used are ESOAL documentaries, the conference call and last year’s ESOAL facilitator training video.
