PAUSA PARA UNA CAUSA

Pausa Para Una Causa is a wellness-centered initiative of the Phambili Sport Impact Foundation designed to promote mental and physical health through accessible, restorative experiences. Recognizing the cultural and societal barriers often face in expressing vulnerability or seeking support, the program creates safe spaces where movement, mindfulness, and emotional wellbeing intersect. By offering sessions that blend yoga, breathwork, meditation, and sound healing, Pausa Para Una Causa encourages individuals to pause, reset, and reconnect with themselves.

The initiative addresses a critical gap in many communities: the lack of public, stigma-free environments where people can engage in practices that support holistic health. Each session serves as both a community experience and a platform for advocacy, raising awareness about stress, anxiety, depression, and the social stigmas that prevent men from seeking help. Through partnerships with wellness studios, instructors, and mental health advocates, the program amplifies the importance of balance, recovery, and emotional resilience.

Pausa Para Una Causa demonstrates how intentional wellbeing practices can drive meaningful cultural change. Every class generates impact by normalizing conversations about mental health, reducing stigma, and building supportive community networks. By bringing mindfulness and movement together with a clear social mission, Pausa Para Una Causa empowers people to show up for themselves, and for each other, in healthier, more sustainable ways.

OUR CAUSAS

MEN'S HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH

November marked Men’s Health Awareness Month, a reminder of the barriers men continue to face when seeking support for their mental wellbeing. Cultural expectations, stigma around vulnerability, and a lack of accessible spaces remain real challenges for men around the world.


To close out the month, we hosted Pausa Para Una Causa in partnership with Lila Yoga in Mexico City. The collaboration brought together a group of men for a restorative vinyasa and sound bath session focused on physical and mental recovery.

Pausa Para Una Causa was designed to create a safe, grounding environment where men could pause, recalibrate, and reconnect with practices that support emotional resilience and overall health.

A heartfelt thank you to Lila Yoga, the instructors who led with care and intention, and every participant who joined us in support of the cause.

Proceeds from the event were donated to IDMAH - Instituto para el Desarrollo de Masculinidades Anti Hegemónicas to advance their work in providing mental health resources and advocacy initiatives for men in Mexico.

We’re grateful to everyone who contributed to making this meaningful moment possible and we look forward to continuing this work together.
