BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. KRISHNAMOORTHI. Mr. Speaker, I wish to recognize the Humanity Institute, in Locust Grove, Georgia, which is creating a space for all who seek natural healing, personal enlightenment, and to become better versions of themselves. Conceived by founder Harshad Patel, the institute will be a center for wellness and charity. Underpinning the Humanity Institute's approach is a commitment to peace and unity for individuals of all cultures, ethnicities, and religions.

The Humanity Institute plans to utilize Ayurveda. Originating in India over 3,000 years ago, Ayurveda is a system of healthcare which highlights the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit as well as the importance of reducing stress. The institute will have a team of certified Ayurvedic medicine practitioners, specialists, and coaches working together to achieve positive health outcomes. Visitors will be able to meet a specialist and receive an individualized treatment plan. Therapies will include yoga, meditation, acupuncture, and herbal medicines. The campus, which is currently under development, will also offer an Addiction Recovery Center to aid those struggling with substance abuse. Together, these approaches are intended to address physical and mental health in conjunction.

The institute will provide visitors with a welcoming, educational environment where they can focus on eliminating stress and finding inner peace with the support of knowledgeable staff members. Overall, the Humanity Institute aims to create a community where visitors can both find support and help support others.

In addition to supporting the physical and mental health of visitors, the Humanity Institute is committed to assisting those in need. The proceeds from the institute will support charitable activities within the United States and throughout the world. These efforts include assisting victims of human trafficking, combating poverty, reducing hunger, conserving our natural environment, and promoting harmonious interpersonal and lifestyle management.

Mr. Speaker, founder Harshad Patel has an ambitious yet essential goal. The Humanity Institute is working diligently to develop its campus and to create a destination for wellness and peace. I want to commend the Humanity Institute for its efforts.
