Proceeds will benefit the David Lynch Foundation Women’s Health Initiative, helping to teach the evidence-based Transcendental Meditation technique to women and children survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.

Domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking pervade our society, affecting hundreds of thousands of adults and children each year.

• Every 2 minutes a woman in the U.S. is sexually assaulted.
• 1 of 4 women will be raped or abused by an intimate partner during her lifetime.
• Every 10 seconds an incident of child abuse is reported.
• 3 million children witness domestic violence every year.

The Women’s Health Initiative (WHI), a division of the David Lynch Foundation, helps to heal and empower survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault through the use of the Transcendental Meditation technique. This field-tested, evidence-based approach clinically relieves symptoms of post-traumatic stress (PTS) and depression and improves mental and emotional well-being, allowing survivors to move forward with healthier, more productive and fulfilling lives. Key findings include:

• Average of 35% reduction in anger, anxiety, depression, and fatigue.
• Average of 51% improvement in quality of sleep.
• Reduced flashbacks and bad memories.
• Improved quality of life.
