Sadako Sasaki was 2 years old when the atomic bomb was dropped on her hometown of Hiroshima. She died at age 12 of radiation-induced leukemia. According to Japanese legend, she folded 1,000 paper cranes before her death, in hopes of being granted one wish – to live. 

Her powerfully beautiful words have become The Centered Way's theme, as we work to incorporate The Art of Peace and holistic BodyMindfulness practices into every field of endeavor and aspect of personal, professional and societal life. May Peace & Harmony Prevail!
