As I mentioned in my previous posts I'm also volunteering at The Art of Living Foundation. The Art of Living Foundation is a volunteer-based, humanitarian and educational non-governmental organization. It was founded in 1981 by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.

The Art of Living Foundation has centers in more than 160 countries. The headquarter is in Bangalore, India, and there are over 10.000+ centers around the world. The Art of Living offers numerous highly effective educational and self-development programs and tools that facilitate the elimination of stress and foster deep and profound inner peace, happiness and well-being for all individuals. These programs, which include breathing techniques, meditation, yoga, and practical wisdom for daily living, have helped millions around the world to completely transform their lives. The basis of these programs is the Sudarshan Kriya breathing technique (also known as SKY breath). SKY Breath is an effective and powerful breath-meditation practice. An empowering technique that works like a natural instant stress reliever.
An Introduction to Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is a humanitarian leader, spiritual teacher and an ambassador of peace. His vision of a stress-free, violence-free society has united millions of people around the world through service projects and courses offered by The Art of Living. Born in 1956 in Southern India, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar was a gifted child. By the age of four, he was able to recite parts of the Bhagavad Gita, an ancient Sanskrit scripture and was often found in deep meditation. Sri Sri’s first teacher, Sudhakar Chaturvedi, had a long association with Mahatma Gandhi. By the age of seventeen in 1973, Sri Sri had graduated with degrees in both Vedic literature and physics.
As mentioned that the programs includes breathing techniques, meditation, yoga, and practical wisdom for daily living, i'll share more about this ancient wisdom in the upcoming blogs and the effects of all these.
