Anyone can do it, says Lisa Fulkerson, Reiki Master and Healing Practitioner, who herself from childhood, instinctively tapped into the mystical nature of energetic healing. This is exactly what is happening when a mother kisses the wound of her child to take the pain away. And when we shift our focus and give ourselves permission, it is possible to journey inward to clear unwanted energies in order to more deeply connect with our own life path.

These women are strong, flexible, adventurous and have a passion for their country, yet share misogynistic stories from their time in the service that completely dismantle equal opportunity propaganda. Major Kara Kelly and Alison Perry, both military veterans with rank, never reported the sexual abuse they experienced out of fear of the wrath of over-powering male figures. It is out of these experiences that led Alison to open Central Oregon Veterans Ranch to heal and transmute emotions of retired soldiers who feel they have nowhere else to turn.
