Yoga and Breathing Techniques for Female Victims of Domestic Violence

According to Parliamentary Library (Parliament of Australia) domestic violence prevails in all geographic areas of Australia and cuts across all socioeconomic and cultural groups.

Volunteers from Art of Living in Australia offer victims a way out of their trauma. Often victims turn to substance abuse to help them forget their pain. The Art of Living volunteers have found a far more effective and healthy remedy for this problem: free yoga, meditation and counseling sessions are being held at a center in Sydney. In a safe and nurturing environment, women are treated for their substance abuse and the pain they have endured at their homes.
