‘Healing America’ aims to revitalize communities through a nationwide online program focused on promoting healing across the country, where participants will learn evidence-based SKY Breath Meditation techniques. 

Over 100 independent studies (including ones from top-rated universities such as Yale, University of Arizona, and Harvard) published in peer-reviewed journals have demonstrated a comprehensive range of benefits from practicing SKY Breath Meditation such as reducing stress, relieving anxiety, improving sleep, enabling a calm state of mind while making people feel happier and more optimistic. 

Over a thousand individuals across the USA will take part in this initiative by participating in a three-day online workshop. 

The planet is currently going through challenging times and needs healing. Hence, the importance of breathing and meditation is starkly recognized. Since the onset of the Covid-19 crisis, the Art of Living Foundation has come forward to support various communities in America, including healthcare heroes, people of color, senior citizens and their caregivers in nursing homes/shelters, children, and educators. ‘Healing America’ will provide a unique opportunity for different communities to come together and experience the power of SKY Breath Meditation, allowing participants to discover a state of deep inner calm and happiness.
