We know from the scientific data that social isolation is a major contributor to the onset of physical and mental illness and that being part of a loving community helps you heal from illness, injury, or trauma. Being part of the Healing Soul Tribe offers not only community, but also a program to aid in your recovery, based on Lissa Rankin, MD’s “Six Steps To Healing Yourself” from her New York Times bestseller Mind Over Medicine.

In the Healing Soul Tribe, you’ll have the choice to enter a healing track or a leadership track—or both. Those on the healing track will have access to online classes aimed at guiding you through the Six Steps To Healing Yourself, as well as monthly teleclasses offering you tips and tools from what Lissa has learned on her eight year study of Sacred Medicine. Those on the leadership track will be supported in starting a live, in person Healing Soul Tribe in your neck of the woods so you can enjoy the benefits of community beyond the online world.

The Healing Soul Tribe is still in its beta-testing phase as we navigate the non-profit world of philanthropic funding and implementation of Lissa’s bold vision to make Sacred Medicine kinds of healing modalities widely accessible to a diverse population of sick, injured or traumatized folks who may not be able to afford to hire healers and trauma therapists for one on one support. We have not yet launched the non-profit arm of this vision yet, but in our beta test, we’re getting our feet wet with a paid online subscription service—a virtual gathering place for loving, open-hearted, soul-centered, spiritually-oriented people on a transformational healing journey. As one of the early adopters of this program, you’ll be part of a movement upswelling to meet the needs of a traumatized and increasingly isolated culture, and we’ll count on you for your feedback and leadership. Serving this vast need will take a village!

Just think of these healing circles as something akin to what the 12-step program is for those in recovery from addictions or those in relationship with addicts. While the content of this transformational program will be vastly different, we aim to mimic the scale, accessibility, affordability, and reproducibility of the 12-step program. Lissa’s vision is to bring affordable emotional and spiritual healing work to hospitals, community centers, yoga studios, prisons, and living rooms around the globe, wherever there is a need and a desire for transformation and healing.
