| Trauma
affects individuals on mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual
levels. Because of this, problems with post traumatic stress requires
a full-spectrum approach to healing.
Many in the healing
professions now recognize that traditional therapies alone are not
completely successful in fully treating the variety of effects and
symptoms of trauma. This may be particularly true for war trauma,
but is not limited only to trauma resulting from war experience.
Our approach is to facilitate the integration of alternative, organic
treatment modalities with traditional therapies in order to better
treat the whole person, including family and community.
Returning Warriors Program
The weekend and weeklong Returning Warriors retreats introduce key
concepts and experiences used since ancient times, with the goal
to provide inforamtion and teach skills for coping with war trauma
in everyday living situations.
