What Vets are saying about Sacred Hunting...

"This was one of the most profound and powerful experiences of my life... This trip allowed me to be vulnerable with a bunch of like minded men without fear of judgement or ridicule. I have struggled tremendously, since leaving the military, with trying to find connection, particularly with men on the healing path and that are committed in doing the work, holding each other accountable and holding space for each other during the good and bad times. I have finally found my Tribe..."

- Brandon Bryan
Navy, Special Boat Teams

"...transformative experience we all lived last weekend during the Sacred Hunting Veteran Ceremony. The depth, vastness, and profound enlightenment we experienced defy the constraints of language...your dedication to cultivating a sacred container filled with openness, compassion and understanding was felt by every soul in our circle. You've opened your hearts and minds to us, and for that, I am profoundly grateful."

- Ryan Roberts
U.S. Marine Corps & Served in Iraq

"After I shot the whitetail deer and I ran to see her and had my hands on the warm body when it was shaking and the last heartbeats, there was a moment that our eyes locked and gazed. There was this surrender...the most graceful experience of my life. This beauty of nature, surrendering to life. It was so deep. It was such a humble experience."

- Gili Oren
Israeli Defense Force (IDF) & Palestinian War veteran
