Chapters

You were traveling a lot this summer and you started your trip in Mauritius where you announced a collaboration with the government of Mauritius. What is this collaboration about and what are the projects you're working on?
Yoga-based mental health project on a national level. National level. Very big. This is going to be an amazing study and a research worth presenting to the world. And I am so happy Mauritius is taking leadership, and I am proud of the Mauritius government. We were working with various ministries, we were doing lots of work with various departments, and when the minister said straight away we start with so many schools, our university, the University of Integrative Sciences. We needed then to even strengthen our own infrastructure because if we have to solve that problem, we need infrastructure. And thankfully, we had a huge army of Shiv Yogis, volunteers that have been waiting to do this seva. So the whole Mauritius team got behind the university and the university is serving the nation.
