How to get rid of negative feelings and emotions, for regulation within family relations and prevention of domestic violence-on this topic, a psychological group meeting took place in the Women Support Center of Kutaisi.
At the meeting, many interesting things were discussed and said, and a peculiar conclusion was made: we ourselves poison our lives with anger, envy, anxiety over trifles, constant thoughts about problems and not the ability to relax. The ability to relax, the ability to concentrate on the main thing is real art and then life will become easier and better.

This family was repeatedly assisted by representatives of local government and fund “Sukhumi”, but one-time assistance does not fully contribute to solving their problems. More support is needed.
