Help Bring Trauma Recovery Yoga to Ukrainians

Countless Ukrainians continue to endure the brutal realities of the war, with millions fleeing their homes and leaving their loved ones behind. These numbers and circumstances are unfathomable.

It is situations like this where Trauma Recovery Yoga (TRY) Global can help. We use neuroscience and yoga to create healing worldwide, among the most vulnerable populations. We educate, advocate, inspire, and train individuals in the TRY method of yoga science.

The Crisis Response Team (CRT) of TRY Global is headed to Lviv, Ukraine, to bring trauma-informed practices to Ukrainians most in need, and assist in the recovery and resilience of those affected by the war. It is through the generous sponsorship of people like you that we will be able to make this possible.

Our team is partnering with numerous local organizations to secure and train up to sixty Ukrainians to become certified TRY instructors. Lviv, in the west of Ukraine, has become a haven for hundreds of thousands of displaced Ukrainians. Basing ourselves in this city means that as well as training certified TRY instructors, we will provide free TRY community classes to those who need them.

In every sense, we're meeting people where they are.

We're glad you asked. TRY is more than just trauma-informed yoga. We also offer trauma-informed breath and meditation, as well as yoga, all of which is firmly rooted in science and psychology. You can learn more about the research behind TRY here: www.tryglobal.org/research

• reduces mental and physical trauma symptoms
• enhances resilience levels
• improves heart-rate variability
• brings balance back to the nervous system

TRY doesn’t just provide the vulnerable with tools to recover. It also helps them cope with current and future trauma and stress. Learning how to intentionally calm and remedy the body's stress-response system is a powerful gift that, once learned, cannot be unlearned.

Whether by donating moetarily or sharing this fundraiser, your support goes a long way. You can help Ukrainians foster a sense of safety and peace within themselves by contributing to our campaign and helping to deliver healing to those in need.
