Shankar. The Art of Living Foundation has centers in more than 156 countries. Art of

Living offers several stress-elimination and self-development programs based on breathing

techniques, meditation and yoga.

Its stress-elimination and self-development programs are based on the breathing

technique ‘Sudarshan Kriya’, meditation and yoga. This technique is a major part of

‘Art of Living’ courses, which are conducted by instructors, most of whom do voluntary

work. These courses have also been conducted for students and faculty, government

officials, firemen, ex-militants, and prisoners.

Its areas of work cover conflict resolution, disaster and trauma relief, poverty

alleviation, empowerment of women, prisoner rehabilitation, education for all, and

campaigns against female feticides, child labor and for environmental sustainability.

In 2007, the foundation initiated the 'Project Vidarbha - 'Swavalamban

programme', with the aim of instructing and supporting farmers in severely drought hit

regions to improve their living conditions. Over 1000 volunteers provided training in

organic and zero-budget farming, rainwater harvesting, hygiene, and the construction of

toilets in addition to the Art of Living course. The foundation received Rs 1.4 million

funding from the state Government against its total expenditure of nearly Rs 7.5 million,

farming' to end suicides to due to financial stress.
