Lead by Example.

That is what I try to do everyday.

Today was no different.

I started by seeing Ashley Nurturing Roots Therapy. I did parts work and really worked through parts of me that needed and wanted support. (Bonus- she is VA approved).

Before I dove into my next task. I stopped by a grass area that also happened to be a memorial.

I grounded (bare feet in the grass and hugging a tree). I enjoyed the history and those honored.

A gentleman with American Flags on his bike stopped in the parking lot.

Looked like he might be a fellow military Veteran. So as I left i say hi.

A 10 year Army Vet that was clearing off the bugs on his bike. He had just returned from Tomahawk and weekend of riding with American Legion Riders and the many events. He was waiting for the Harley Davidson shop to before he headed back up for another ride to Ashland. We connected.

I gave him an invite to The Strength in Service Summit event Trinity EC (Oct 3rd-4th) and Sofas for Service, Inc. brochure because he is looking to get a place of his own.

And that was just the start of the day. Yet so powerful.

Other events I attended was "She is a Vetetan" call led by Jodi Barnett at WDVA.

And ended the night with Chapter 21 DAV meeting at VFW Post 305.

So if you are a Veteran and part of an Veteran Service Organization or not, reach out.

You dont have to do this thing called life alone.

There is support and resources and people that want to help.

Let's connect. We are stronger together.

Excited to announce another Veteran Resource in the Eau Claire area.

Talk therapy not working.

Medications seem to add more problems?

Just want the negative thoughts to stop over taking your mind?

Ready to give something new a try.

Consider Brainspotting.

It is a technique that is not your conventional talk therapy, but also gets the root of the problem (trauma).

Ask me how I know.

I ( Christina Baurichter ) have been working with Ashley doing brainspotting and parts work under a Veteran Grant.

But she recent announced that she is VA approve for Care in the Community (Community Care).

Which more Veterans have the opportunity to get the therapy closer to home.

Feel free to contact her directly.

Looking for warehouse space.

2500-3000 to 7000ish square feet.

Prefer with a bathroom accessible near by.

In Eau Claire area, for local Non Profit- Veterans Donor Connect.

Would be tax deductible opportunity.

Let me know if you have any ideas.

"I don't have time to obligate myself to another cause or organization."

Or some variation of not having time.

This is the answer I get when I ask a Veteran why they are not part of a VSO or connected with other Veterans since getting out of service.

I get it.

We have families or grandchild.

We have to pay the bills to keep a roof over heads and the lights on.

We are just trying to get by day to day.

And it is the military way to feel obligated to give more if we are a part of something.

What if.

What if that Veteran Service Organization can support you instead?

What if that Veteran connection can lead you to life being a little less stressful?

What if it a season for you to receive?

I know this is a foreign concept to us that served.

I know this because I have struggled with it myself.

Struggle wanting to over give.

Prideful to ask for support.

Receiving being a foreign language.

But it doesn't have to be that way.

Let me listen to your story.

Let me support the season your in.

Let's work through the military taught things that no longer serves you.

Let's connect you to the resources for the season your in.

Reach out. Message. Or comment the struggle or resource you wish you had right now!

PSTD Program Coming.

Do you provide resources for Veterans with PTSD?

Great question. So glad you asked.

Christina does not provide nor certified to provide psychological therapy.

However, it is a pleasure to connect each Veteran the services that work for them.

And not do it alone.

Whether it is coordinating transportation, calling with the Veteran to set an appointment and walk through the door with them!

Many Veterans have had a bad experience or a sigma using the VA facilities. Or therapy so far hasn't worked.

It is okay.

There are other services out there like
-Equine Therapy at Trinity Farms
-Counseling from the Vet Center that come to you. (Veteran counselors)
-Care in the Community (VA care outside the VA)
-Many others

Let's connect you so you can

+starting sleeping better at night

+reconnect and have better relationships

+be able to work and get along with co-workers

+have methods to help get through the anxiety, depression, etc

Let's get you the tools you need and work for you.

Message if this is you.

This boat has a special place in my heart.

I was the seller.

I bought it when I was in a power wheelchair.

It was ever fitting to know it was moving on to serve the same purpose for others that love the sport of fishing and being on the water.

The connector was my son. He was one of the seniors that poured so much love to make it more accessible.

He understands the difficulties by being a family member of someone (disabled -- specially abled), especially a military Veteran.

Cant wait to hear about its first launch this summer.

Love,

Christina

Flags are flying again.

Poles are straighter.

Makes my heart happy.

Need to get a new POW/MIA flag.

Last one was tattered.
