Stop Diabetes Movement

Thank you for your interest in the Stop Diabetes Movement (SDM)!

Sewa TT in collaboration with Yoga Bharati (USA) is excited to launch SDM which aims to educate citizens of an integrative approach to manage and prevent diabetes through yoga. The Yoga training sessions will be conducted by certified and experienced yoga teachers trained from S-VYASA (Swami Vivekananda Yoga Research Foundation, Bangalore) and local medical doctors. The objective of this program is to help individuals with pre-diabetes from becoming diabetic and to help diabetic individuals to control and manage their diabetic condition. Participants will practice postures and stretches and learn breathing exercises.
