Not all of the scars from war are visible. Many of them go unnoticed or untreated even by the warriors who wear them. If you are a veteran who understands what that means, this manual has been designed specifically with you in mind.Warrior Hope is divided into four units using HOPE as an acronym HOPE for the topics addressed. H = Healing; O = Opportunity; P = Peace; E = Empowerment. The chapters in each unit walk the warrior through the process of dealing with (or helping others to deal with) the invisible scars of Post-Traumatic Stress and Moral Injury that so often accompany military service.These "invisible scars" often leave the warrior returning home with a sense that they no longer have a purpose or mission. As such, the goal isn't just to find healing from the past but to also forge ahead into the best possible future - a future that includes redeployment into a new mission of service.Brief Overview of the Four UnitsThe first unit is about healing (H) and addresses the need for mental, emotional and spiritual healing. The next unit encourages warriors to find opportunities (O) to connect with other veterans and service providers who can provide the assistance they need. Unit three deals with the need to make peace (P) with the past and learn to live in the present so they might successfully move forward into the future. Finally, in the last unit everything comes together in turning the focus on being empowered (E) to take on the next mission.Warrior Hope works best when worked through in a group environment. However, if you cannot be part of a group it will still be of benefit. You may even want to recruit some other veterans in your community to work through it with you.Warrior Hope will help you take the first steps to finding your way through the life issues created by the mental and emotional traumas so often associated with being a warrior. It will also help family members better understand the struggles that can accompany military service.
