What is “Volunteer for Better Bulgaria”?

Volunteer for Better Bulgaria is a community-driven initiative inspired by the Art of Living's commitment to a violence-free society, a disease-free body, a confusion-free mind, an inhibition-free intellect, a trouble-free memory, and a sorrow-free soul — the birthright of every individual.


We invite people from all walks of life to actively participate in creating a happier, healthier, and more connected Bulgaria.

We're looking for Volunteers to help with: 

 

  • Helping establish Happiness Centres in neighbourhoods and towns
     
  • Welcoming people to learn breathing, meditation, and yoga
     
  • Organising food & culture festivals
     
  • Organising positive community activities and outreach
     
  • Sharing uplifting messages and building a culture of kindness
     
  • Supporting teacher training and knowledge programmes
     
  • Offering your time, skills, or space to host gatherings

FIRST STEPS

What happens when you register?

A Better Bulgaria begins with you.

When you sign up, you're stepping into something powerful—an opportunity to serve, connect, and uplift your community. We’re building spaces where people can learn to breathe, meditate, and practise yoga for better mental health.

1. You sign up.

Your journey begins with a simple step—saying yes. You fill in the form. We welcome you aboard.
 

2. We call you.

Each month, we meet over Zoom. It’s short and sweet. We check in, listen, and share what’s coming up. You tell us what you’d love to offer.

3. You join a project.

From here, we fly together. You get placed on a team and start helping out. Every action brings us closer to a Better Bulgaria.

What are Happiness Centres?

Similarly to many activities and businesses that solve our problems, we don’t have a place to go to release our stress and anxiety—a place to move beyond depression and aggression—somewhere we can leave feeling happy, blissful, and relaxed.

This is why we need to create a happier Bulgaria. We need community-based Happiness Centres where people can learn breathing techniques, meditation, and yoga.

By spreading positivity, volunteering, and connecting with others, we can improve mental health, reduce aggression, and increase joy.

Will you join us in creating a Better Bulgaria?

Vibrations shape our inner state more than words.

Both science and ancient wisdom agree the universe is made of vibrations, which can influence our mood without us realising it. 
To restore balance and spread positivity, we need community “Happiness Centres” so together we can make Bulgaria a happier place.
