David Lynch Instagram – “In the last several years, there’s been more documented firefighter suicides than line-of-duty deaths. [Transcendental Meditation] makes thoughts less intrusive.”
-Chief Mike West, Front Range, CO Fire and Rescue
The David Lynch Foundation is proud to partner with Front Range Fire Rescue in Northern Colorado to bring the power of TM to the brave men and women who risk their lives everyday to keep our communities safe. Read more about this pilot program, as reported by MSN, at the link in our bio.
“Our firefighters experience first-hand some of the most traumatic events that happen in our communities. Those out West in places like Colorado and California who are dealing with wildfires are under-resourced, overworked and overwhelmed. Compared to the general population, firefighters are at heightened risk for depression, posttraumatic stress, and suicide. The health and wellness of our first responders is critical not only to themselves, their families, and their brothers and sisters on the job but also to our public safety as a nation.”
