treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), I felt an
insatiable need to help. I thought that if what I practiced could
help our country’s veterans in such a significant way, it could
help others as well. With help from a Yoga Nidra instructor,
I learned how to teach this ancient meditation, other-
wise known as “Yogic Sleep”. It is a type of guided medita-
tion that takes you to a state between consciousness and
sleep while you lay in savasana, or corpse pose. Through
this practice, the use of direct imagery and body sensing
takes you to a relaxed state of mind where you can let go of
the thoughts that constantly flood through your mind. This
practice restores your mind and body. However, the stu-
dents who take this Yoga Nidra class are not the only mem-
bers of the community who gain benefits. The class I have
set up is by donation only, and all the proceeds go toward
the PTSD department at the VA. Money raised will buy Yoga
Nidra CDs for Veterans who are treating their disorders with
this practice.
This fundraiser also led me to the realization that other
departments at the VA could use my help. So I set up a drive
to collect materials that the VA is in need of. Items will be
collected throughout the community and will be donated to
the VA in Miami. Thankfully, I am a healthy teen who is capa-
ble of helping the people around her. I hope that through my
efforts and the community’s donations, at least one Veteran’s
life will change for the better.
