Bulletproof Veteran Podcast


This week we welcome Ray Murphy, founder of Warriors Healing Network.

The Warriors Healing Network was founded to help facilitate psychedelic treatments to combat veterans and police officers who have been diagnosed with PTSD, and require financial assistance to get the help they need to fight for their lives.

Ray, and his team, are here to support those members of our community who have tried to address symptoms thru various other more traditional modalities with little to no success. They have been where so many are, and understand the frustration of feeling like you have no other options.

Ray describes the healing power of Ayahuasca, and how it changed his life, when all else had failed. He talks about how plant medicine, and Ayahuasca ceremonies in particular, can be very difficult and uncomfortable. Participants will have to step out of their comfort zones and be vulnerable and willing to go “all in” to get the best results.

This means sharing traumatic events with others, sharing space with others trying to heal themselves, and holding themselves accountable to making positive changes.

Ray explains the importance of surrendering to the process, and understanding the medicine alone will not “cure” you of anything. This program is to help those who are willing to do the work to save their own lives.

So shed your preconceived notions of psychedelic medicine, and enjoy this weeks episode.

Warriors Healing Network is Helping Combat Veterans and Police Officers with PTSD Get the Treatment They Deserve

Introduction of a new 501c3 Warriors Healing Network is set to help combat veterans and police officers get PTSD treatment using psychedelics.

Ravenel, SC, June 06, 2022 –(PR.com)– Warriors Healing Network Launches Website to Support Plant-Based Treatment for Veterans Diagnosed with PTSD.

Warriors Healing Network (WHN), a Charleston-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, today announced the official launch of its website, www.warriorshealingnetwork.org and is currently evaluating fundraising partners and accepting donations to provide financial assistance to veterans and police officers seeking alternative treatment methods for PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome).

The first charity of its kind to provide financial assistance facilitating psychedelic treatment options for both combat veterans and police officers diagnosed with PTSD, Warriors Healing Network is partnered with the Rythmia Life Advancement Center, and the Soltara Healing Center, both medically licensed plant medicine centers with locations in Costa Rica. WHN will accept applications from combat veterans and police officers diagnosed with PTSD that have attempted to find help through traditional channels but with little to no result. Accepted applicants will embark on a week-long retreat at a WHN-preferred treatment center, with integration sessions prior to departure and upon return.

An increasing number of studies show that treating PTSD with ayahuasca or its active ingredient dimethyltryptamine (DMT) may be effective therapy when taken in a controlled environment with the proper support.

Ray Murphy, CEO & Founder of WHN suffered from complex PTSD for several years before he discovered psychedelics as a viable treatment option. “The problem with traditional PTSD treatments is they simply don’t work for people with deeply rooted trauma. I believe there is no better tool than the use of ayahuasca or DMT in a controlled environment with licensed medical professionals,” said Murphy. “Our goal is to remove the associated cost-barrier and give more PTSD sufferers access to this type of treatment.”

The website offers several ways to help, including event fundraising, sponsoring a warrior, and partnership opportunities, as well as standard donations. To learn more, visit www.warriorshealingnetwork.org.
