Bringing Humanitarian Work to Our Communities through the Veteran to Veteran TFT Healing Project
Medical Chow Qigong Training
ABOUT
Eleven years of conflict have made a lasting devastating mark, especially for those in the military community for who make it home. Of late, our veterans have been returning to their homes with their inner demons, battling with PTSD and mental distress, and with seemingly insufficient response or resources to help them. Shockingly, in the years since 9/11, about 3,000 military members have already lost their lives to suicide. And the number still climbs. This is almost as many military members killed in action due to IEDs in war.
This is why Dr. Effie Chow and East West Academy of Healing Arts have partnered with organizations, veterans and individuals such as yourself to provide a program for veterans and families with Chow Medical Qigong. We believe that through Chow Qigong, a system that creates and sustains a positive mental attitude and a more grounded sense of well being, veterans can find healing and resist self-destructive habits.
Our goal is to provide free support to veterans through our Chow Qigong programs, while putting them on a journey to better themselves and the world around them. We specialize in and have remarkable, fast results with situations where other options, including medicine, have failed, such as the sufferings of veterans. Veterans will learn to heal both themselves and others at the same time, creating a viable career for themselves in healing. Veterans can sign up for our existing classes on a possible free scholarship. We are developing a serious cadre of veteran healers to heal the wounds of the world, beginning with themselves, in order to offset the horrors of war. We utilize the tremendous strengths veterans have developed/gained in their service to our country. We want to give them the good life they deserve for their bravery in defending our freedom. This is a serious invitation to anyone interested in being part of the program or in helping.
Please contact us [email protected] loving Qi with hugs and laughter with serious learning and service.
On January 18th, 2014 we launched the first of our Chow Qigong training programs for veterans in Columbia, Missouri. This hugely successful event, sponsored by veterans organizations such as the Truman VA Hospital and the MU Veterans Center, took place in the Harry S Truman VA Hospital and attracted over 100 attendees! Given its success, we subsequently created two additional training programs for veterans in Columbia: A Basic Chow Qigong weekend class and a Level 1 Chow Medical Qigong intensive training program. We had many great successes in treating symptoms of PTSD and helping the veterans in the area become catalysts for healing!
We are currently organizing our next Level 1 Chow Medical Qigong Intensive Training program in San Francisco, and, with many other cities interested, we are open to requests to have a Chow Qigong veterans program in your area! Please do contact [email protected] for further information.

International Association of Near-Death Studies (IANDS) - Veterans Empowerment Training Initiative
Jeff Garton of Veteran Empowerment Training recently interviewed IANDS President Diane Corcoran about her Combat NDE Project, reviewing her military career as a nurse and her work on near-death experiences (NDEs) and with IANDS.
Dr. Corcoran launched the Combat NDE Project to develop education materials and videos to reach out to veterans in military or VA facilities—to get the word out to veterans about NDEs to help them understand their own NDE and the aftereffects they may be experiencing.
The Veteran Empowerment Training is a job and career readiness training for veterans.
