ANAND BHATT JOINS DAVID LYNCH AND RUSSELL BRAND IN EFFORTS TO AID U.S. VETERANS
Music Star Anand Bhatt to Support the Healing Powers of Meditation for Veterans Mentally
Injured from War

Anand Bhatt will join filmmaker David Lynch and actor Russell Brand for Operation Warrior Wellness, an outreach program that will help over 10,000 veterans overcome Post Traumatic Stress Disorder through Transcendental Meditation.

Bhatt will travel to Fairfield, IA this week to film a profile for the Davis Lynch Foundation’s
online TV broadcast. He will discuss on camera the positive impact meditation has had on his
life and how it played an important role in his music career.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a very serious, yet overwhelmingly common outcome
of war; in fact, 11-20% of veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan war suffer from the conditioned
disease, according to the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs. The condition develops when an
individual suffers a severe trauma or catastrophe and it causes depression, anxiety, and mood
swings in the victim. Due to the horrific nature of war, veterans are the largest group suffering
from PTSD.

Although the impact of this condition is overwhelming, research by Operation Warrior
Wellness and the David Lynch foundation found that veterans who practiced meditation showed
significant reductions in depression, anxiety, and family problems after only four months verses
veterans receiving psychotherapy alone.
