Their motto at Soldier’s Heart is “Caring Means Sharing the Burden.” Soldier's Heart has many Healing Retreats available.
"Soldier’s Heart, founded in 2006, tends the invisible wounds resulting from war and military service. These wounds are now commonly called “PTSD”; during the Civil War, they were known as “Soldier’s Heart.”
Soldier’s Heart believes that these “soul wounds” are sacred and, properly tended, can lead to wisdom and transformation. We offer genuine homecoming and a path for post-traumatic growth to troops, veterans, families, and communities. Our mission focuses on Veterans and their Families but transcends their wounding to include the entire society.
Soldier’s Heart creates healing intensives that include veterans (male and female), family members, helping professionals, clergy, students and other interested community members. Over the three days we are together, we incorporate the components that are most essential to healing from the war experience.
At Soldier’s Heart retreats, you have an opportunity to face the dark times in your military service in the company of the community in whose name you acted. Looking straight at the past may help restore your hope in the future.
Soldier’s Heart retreats create places where you can share your stories safely.
Every retreat is unique in some ways depending on the participants, their particular needs, the resources of the venue, the group dynamic as a whole and the unexpected. We attempt to be as flexible as needed for the most positive outcome. However, we have a general format, proven to be effective over time, that we generally incorporate into our time together."

Read The Warrior Soul by Oliver L. North. Its not about PTSD but remembering that we are still soldiers of God and to keep connected. This is great for the sodiers that just get back but sometimes PTSD doesnt take affect right away sometimes its years so what then? I like the idea we just have to have the whole package for our troops otherwise some get help others dont. How do we pick or do we have a way to monitor them for the rest of their lives a easy cheap way to make sure they have a good life. I know theres a way just no one wants to listen.
