    “Mental health is no longer a peripheral issue; it’s central to our overall well-being,” said Sriram Rajagopal, Director of World Pranic Healing (India). “Through these 250+ healing camps, we aim to make the transformative power of Pranic Healing available to everyone.”

    This year’s initiative aligns with international efforts to raise awareness about mental health, providing communities with practical tools to manage emotional imbalances naturally.
