ARDMORE, Pa., June 4, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Marisa Weiss M.D., president and founder of Breastcancer.org, will be a featured guest at Wanderlust Vermont—the world's fastest growing yoga and music festival. On Friday, June 22, 2012, Dr. Weiss, a well-respected breast oncologist, will present her health campaign Think Pink, Live Green. Through this global breast cancer prevention initiative, she educates people around the country about the lifestyle and environmental risk factors that may increase the risk of developing breast cancer.

"I'm thrilled and honored to be a part of Wanderlust Vermont this year," said Marisa Weiss, M.D. "As a breast cancer survivor and a physician, I understand the important role daily, mindful exercise plays in reducing your risk of breast cancer. Staying active with yoga and other fitness routines is a huge part of my life and my children's lives. Breast health is women's health, and there's a lot we can do to protect ourselves now and in the future."

"We are proud to have Dr. Weiss as a part of our speakeasy series," said festival co-founder, Jeff Krasno. "So many people are touched by the disease, and we want to help build an educational platform where she can share her message on the importance of a yoga routine in maintaining optimal health."
