Takes a lot to make me cry sometimes. None of the others quite did it. This one...was almost like a catharsis.

The war still rages for way, too many of our Veterans and troops living among us today.

Memorial Day for them is a storm within, as many of them remember faces of those fallen near them. Others suffer the recurring memories of being on the receiving end of war's "shock and awe." Talk about Pavlovian conditioning, we have living victims of what Memorial Day stands for. They are victims of memories.

Many are tormented in their minds to varying degrees. Many call it PTSD, others deny they are suffering to the extent they are while others of them are "checking out" in committing suicide to a reported daily-average of 22 suicides per day.

Yet some exist that proclaim there is healing available.

Please, if anyone surfed by this website and read this and are suffering from such horror, listen to and consider using this 7min. Mental exercise.

We have doctors as well as chaplains that personally vouch for this exercise's potential help and healing.

**The Endorsements**



MG (Major General) -
“In my own experience as a commander, I have seen Soldiers make rapid and sustained improvement through use of these [Coping Strategies] CDs. I was relieved to have these CDs available as a tool our Chaplains could hand out to Soldiers and their spouses. Soldiers, who otherwise refused to seek help, benefited by using the CD in the privacy of their home.”

- MG George R. Harris, recently retired West Point General assigned to the Office of the Secretary of the Army


Wife -
“May I have 10 copies. I am a family member of an active duty soldier. I am also a clinical psychologist working with soldiers who have combat stress and PTSD. I think the cd would be a good resource for my patients."

Thank you, D. L, PsyD RN FNP (Clinical Psychologist)


Army Chaplain -
The Be Still and Know Exercise works for me. It calms my soul, enhances my thinking, and improves my emotional regulation. I am thankful to be a more resilient chaplain. Read the chaplain's letter (PDF)

----Chaplain (LTC), U.S. Army (Southern Baptist)


Walter Reed -
Patriot Outreach Coping Strategies CDs. "I have rendered a positive opinion to TSG (The Surgeon General)."

- Dr. (COL) John Bradley, M.D., Chief of Psychiatry, Walter Reed Army Medical Center


Iraq Warrior -
"This is basic training for the mind!"

- PFC J. Oehring, U.S. Army Infantry (Deployed to Iraq)


Veterans Administration Clinic -
"I received my [Coping Strategies] CD and love it. I would very much like to request 30 more for use at the VA Clinic and to provide to soldiers and families.

This is a wonderful resource!

Thank you," T.P., Addiction Therapist (VA Clinic)


Father Loses Son in Iraq, Joins Marines -
"On the third try, all hell broke loose and it was an epiphany... It energizes me, it enlightens me and it gives me strength... I am ready and proud."

- Mike, U.S. Marine Corps, Deployed to Iraq



Sergeant USMC -
"Thank you, It saved my Life! The peace and joy I now enjoy makes life worthwhile! "

- SGT J. Shiposki, U.S. Marine Corps, (Homebound Quadriplegic)


Air Force Chaplain -
“The distribution of these [Coping Strategies] CD's has been a great success.
My thanks to the Lord and staff. I have been busy at the Mass Military Reservation on-base. Units from all over New England come here.
May I request 50 more CD's. One veteran has commented 'thanks for looking out for us!"

Respectfully, B. C., U.S. Air Force


Doctor -
“Hello I am a Professional Counselor in private practice and a volunteer in the 'Give An Hour' program. I anticipate needing no less than 6 copies of this product to use in conjunction with current and future active therapy cases. If you can supply this request i will be grateful.

Thank You,” Major W. K.


Navy Vet, Vietnam -
"Amazingly, it (the Exercise) keeps showing and reaping benefits. I've never been more patient and alive. The secret is in the watchful observance without struggle."

- L. Brown U.S. Navy, Gulf of Tonkin, Vietnam


Iraq Warrior -
"I am no longer in denial of what happened in Iraq. I am freed. The exercise helped me overcome my past; it;s not haunting me any longer. it's a winner!!"

- PFC J.M., U.S. Army, Anbar Province, Iraq 2004-2005


Lastly, hearing from a Civilian Physician...

Dr. George Hayter, M.D., Psychiatrist and Diplomat of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, says the Exercise "…is the only program of self-therapy which achieves the desired end-state of therapy; to lessen the dependence on the therapist – the goal is self-awareness.” Also, he says, “It’s the only approach that I have ever seen in the whole field of psychology which allows you to become independent, competent and effective.”

Saw this story on my Yahoo feed this morning and had to share it with you and others, Nanny. Watch the video, listen to the words. It will be worth your time.

Mine came home. So many others haven't. Never forget their willingness to sacrifice on our behalves.

Thank you, gal! Hugs to yours and thankful he did make it yet he gave so much.

Ours came home all 3 times but like yours, medically-retired at young age (of 30.) Some of his buds didn't make it back and a couple of them have departed since then.

Sickest of all is that within just 6mos. of his command's last deployment, 3 suicides within their immediate command.

Memories.....I have wonderful memories of being a newlywed in the summer of 1980. President Ronald Reagan was our Commander-in-Chief, and we were so very blessed to serve at this time. He entered office giving all troops an 11.7% and then 14.3% two consecutive years, saying no-excuses that some lower-ranked families were on food stamps.

He speaks of Memorial Day in a way that should still be broadcast this time of year. It's *that* good. Just three or four mins. long.
