Wisdom and Freedom Peace Tour Veterans Project FAQ Q: What are your goals and objectives?
Our goal is to share EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques see www.emofree.com) with veterans and their families, and with counselors and therapists who may not have been exposed to EFT. We are sharing this self-healing modality because it has an outstanding success rate for recovery from PTSD, physical pain, depression, anxiety and insomnia. We desire to hearten, heal and uplift our veterans with our "boots on the ground" service. We imagine a world where warriors create peace and sustainability with their much earned courage, strength and their commitment to serve and protect. We are addressing the need of veterans and their families to recover from PTSD, depression, insomnia and pain on every level. We are offering to work in conjunction with health-care professionals and the veterans to substantially decrease suicide rates and give these courageous young people back their lives again. (Currently the suicide rate for veterans is about 18-20 suicides per day.) Q: Who and what make up The Wisdom and Freedom Peace Tour / Veterans Project? We are a collective of visionaries consisting of EFT practitioners, authors, performance artists, musicians, DJs, dancers, green educators and green-hearted volunteers. Besides people, our vehicles carry information, a performance dome, a movie screen, sound equipment, costumes, a solar-powered stage and a portable dance floor.

Our caravan starts its journey through the counties of California, reaching out to veterans and their families offering healing, love and inner-tainment. We are modeling what can now be done to heal our minds and bodies as we demonstrate elegant new ways to green up our lives, clear our minds and restore our environment. We are creating a more sustainable and healthy way of life for the present and future generations of America.We offer FREE individual and group EFT sessions (see www.emofree.com) from qualified practitioners to veterans and their families, teaching them a simple and highly effective self healing technique to clear the memories and painful physical and psychological effects of war. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nRY3UtTHvo
click HERE watch Vets be *CURED* of PTSD using EFT http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEOq0EoHR4Y TESTIMONIALS: Seaman Wilbur Hurley, a 20-year-old corpsman, returned to Camp Pendleton in October plagued with horrible visions. In mid-September, he had witnessed a young Marine kill himself while serving in Iraq. It was just weeks before Hurley returned to his base at Camp Pendleton. "Once I started doing the (EFT)tapping, an overwhelming calm came over me,"Hurley said. "I had no cares or worries in the world. In fact I left Sue's (office) singing. It was pretty much the greatest day of my life." Seaman Wilbur Hurley EFT has been, for me, the single most effective technique I have used in my 45 years of practice as a psychiatrist. I have had success with panic, social anxiety and many other disorders. Curtis Steele, MD, Canada I have found EFT to be so useful that it has become the centerpiece of my practice. I have used it successfully on a long list of emotional issues, including paranoid schizophrenia. Interestingly, when the emotional issues subside, physical ailments often enjoy simultaneous relief. I have seen this with the symptoms of fibromyalgia and MS as well as for swallowing problems, back pains, hemorrhoids, acidity, breathing problems, stomach pain, vaginitis, headaches, joint pains and stomach problems. Sonia Novinsky, Ph.D., Brazil In my 50 years as a practicing psychiatrist, EFT has proven to be one of the most rapid and effective techniques I've ever used. Henry Altenberg, MD, USA We are reaching out to embrace, love and support one another during this time of extreme change. We create musical experiences and workshops to educate, inner-tain, inspire and connect. We include demonstrations of sustainable living practices, green building technologies and the use alternative energy sources. We encourage participation of peaceful inner environments with meditation, music, movement and yoga classes. Q: What does the Tour look like on the road?
Q: Can you list your main strategies in fulfilling this vision? * Free private EFT healing sessions and EFT Circles for veterans and their families. (see www.emofree.com) * Workshops and classes on the healing arts, yoga, dance, meditation, music, playshops for kids and information about green jobs.
* The CandleOpera, a musical, theatrical variety show performed on a solar-powered stage with live music, dance, and transformational theater. The CandleOpera is the centerpiece production at each stop, and is co-created with local talent and national celebrities: musicians, artists, authors, and poets who share these values. By connecting with the Wisdom and Freedom Peace Tour's Veterans Project, celebrities can easily become a part of a legacy of creative green activism, underscoring messages of social change, hope, environmentalism, peace, and sustainable living. * A running tour blog on the internet. * On line publicity and video coverage utilizing MySpace,Youtube and FaceBook. * A full length documentary. * Substantial press coverage due to the increasing focus on the desperate need for supporting our veterans. * Acts of kindness and artful beauty to draw people to our events, for example, musical, costumed trash pick-ups, interfaith meditations by the water, and visits to VA hospitals. We specialize in spontaneous, ingenious, creative acts of service everywhere we go, attracting curiosity and attention. * Hosting cutting-edge authors, filmmakers, and inventors of green technologies, giving them visibility and personal, public and moral support. Q: What do you expect to occur as a result of this tour? By nurturing vets and connecting them to a healthy future, we ensure that these and the next generations are taught compassion, self-healing and long-term environmental sustainability in action. We expect this to be the most rewarding work of our lives!
We have already been given $21,000 which has been used to purchase and partially convert a beautiful MCI 9 recycled greyhound tour bus specifically for this project. We have been gifted with a donation of an inexpensive beautiful place to live in California to use as a home base for the WFPT. See our I Support page for ways you can contribute and volunteer. We expect this aspect of the tour to last 12 months, with room to grow to a 36 month project. We plan to serve our veterans in most of California's 56 counties with over twenty-one 5-day stops, producing a 5-day event in each location. We will use this money to buy a large tent, finish the bus preparations, buy a portable dance floor and stage lights. This money funds coordinators and staff to work with our volunteers to launch this project by late August 2008. We intend to reach as many California veterans during the next 12 months as we possibly can. We desire for the whole of humanity to THRIVE now. We see that we are all interconnected and that the means shapes the end result for all of us. We become what we do. We are becoming a healthy, loving and peaceful people by being healthy, loving and peaceful as individuals. We end the trauma of war by artfully creating PEACE now! |
