I met a man today who heads the Augusta, Maine chapter.. I was reminded of my late friend John whose PTSD made sobriety difficult. We were sailing buddies. He was an adventurous solo sailor. But the companionship that Healing Waters offers would have been a balm for him.
"This journey has been a transformative one for me, especially in dealing with my PTSD as a disabled veteran.
The process of crafting a bamboo rod, the tranquility of fly fishing, and the victories in each catch are my own forms of therapy, healing me in ways traditional medicine couldn’t. It is a respite from my typical solitary existence and a welcome diversion that offers not just a physical activity but also an engaging and rewarding mental exercise."
