We are a group of veterans who have lived through the deep and soul-destroying effects of trauma after years in the field. After struggling, with little help and improvement, we came in touch with the indigenous healers in the Peruvian Rainforest and Columbian mountains. After months of intensive healing with these indigenous master healers, we have been able to free ourselves from the effects of PTSD and now live full lives, free of the debilitating symptoms. Our personal experience of such deep transformation has inspired us to develop programs for veterans in collaboration with the best that western healthcare has to offer combined with treatments from traditional indigenous healers from South America.
Our goal is to offer the single most effective, gold standard healing solution to veterans who are caught in a cycle of despair, depression, and disconnection, following time served in the armed forces.
We are looking to use funds raised to take six veterans to Peru to take part in a healing programme alongside the Shipibo healers. The funds would be used for travel, insurance, food expenses, and use of the healing facilities in Peru.
The Way of the Warriors healing program will begin with a 12-day introductory workshop at the Temple of the Way of Light, followed by a 3-day integration workshop. The participants will then begin a 1-month ‘master plant’ healing dieta. This month long dieta will take place at Shipibo Rao, a Shipibo owned center run by Maestro José Sanchez Lopez.
After experiencing deep cleaning and clearing during the 12-day retreat, veterans will then take an even deeper dive into their healing process through the dieta. The plant dieta is the most effective traditional Amazonian process for deep healing, that truly reaches into the tap roots of trauma. In order to safely and effectively carry out a dieta, it is necessary to undergo cleansing first with the healers, clearing the first layers of dense energies. This brings the first stages of energetic alignment to the participants. This then allows them to then be able to drop into the deep levels of the healing process that a plant dieta then provides.
The veterans will spend 1.5 months in the Amazon, experiencing the highest level of healing available which will be the genesis a new beginning for each of the participants. This powerful combination will then be followed up by doctors and therapists in the UK for a further 6 months, to support the veterans with processing and integrating their healing experience, and providing ongoing nutritional support, body work, multiple complementary therapies, and an overall restoration program.
Once aligned and reconnected again not only do the veterans reap the rewards, the effects and benefit to their own families and children is immeasurable. This then carries forward into the wider community, where veterans can be a huge asset and use their experiences for positive action.
Our long term goal is to extend our programme to not just veterans but to also work with first responders and healthcare workers who are also struggling with trauma, both personal and vicarious, as a result of their occupations.
