The healing for warriors was to be spiritually restored, and they had many beautiful and complex rituals and other practices for restoring spirit.
Imagine a healing journey that embraces the mind, body, and spirit of veterans. In this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas welcome Edward Tick, Ph.D., a pioneer in veteran healing, to discuss the transformative Soldier’s Heart program.

Drawing on ancient traditions used to restore warriors' spirits, Tick explains how these practices form the foundation of the Soldier’s Heart model.
The episode delves into the impact of these healing journeys, including trips to Vietnam and Greece, which have helped veterans confront and reduce their trauma.
