The Lebanese suffered tremendously in the war of 2006. So did the Iraqi refugees: From the elderly to the young, all suffered post war trauma. The Art of Living’s way of providing relief to young wounded minds and souls took the form of an Art Excel Course conducted in Beirit from 25-28 August. The course held at the Chweifat Computer Center had 18 participants.
"We enjoyed the breathing techniques as much as the games"
The course helped children release stress. They returned home experiencing better confidence levels, concentration and memory.
"Can't we extend the course?" asked some of the participants.
