As more and more serious research is being done on utilizing alternative and integrative therapies to support the traditional treatment of trauma, there is an increasing interest in the military and the Veterans Administration to provide these services, yoga in particular, for returning veterans dealing with post traumatic stress disorder, traumatic brain injury, or any traumatic physical or psychological injury sustained in combat. The Give Back Yoga Foundation feels this is an incredibly urgent and important area of service and a main branch of our funding is focused on supporting well prepared yoga teachers to provide training in movement, breath, and meditation for veterans and active military men and women.
