During the Israel / Lebanon war in July 2006, Art of Living teachers and volunteers, upholding a vision of a “One World Family”, came together in a spirit of service and solidarity providing the victims and their families with medical supplies, trauma relief and emotional support.
Trauma relief workshops were given to 250 women and children over 4 years of age.
Children went through interactive games, stretching exercises and breathing techniques to release anxiety. Women were taught relaxation techniques as well as powerful breathing technique, Sudarshan Kriya to release stress.
Trauma symptoms reduced significantly and smile was glued back to each face. Women became more patient with their children and getting better sleep. The children experienced more relaxation.
