Journey for the Soul is a 5-day therapeutic jeep expedition through the mountains and coastlines of Greece, designed for wounded IDF soldiers with PTSD who need to step completely outside their daily lives to begin healing.
For five days, 24 soldiers travel through Meteora, Agrafa, and Evia. By jeep. Through landscapes that open something in you.
Twice a day, they stop, gather, and, with Professor Einat Levy Gigi, Belev Echad’s trauma specialist, they speak the things they have been carrying alone.
“The pain is coming out. And it’s being held with warmth and love. The feeling is that everyone is simply, one heart.”
These are soldiers whose bodies have healed, but whose souls have not. Who move through the world feeling that no one truly understands what they carry. On this journey, they are finally surrounded by people who do.
Two more full expeditions are already waiting, soldiers who say no to everything, who haven’t stepped outside since the war. But who signed up anyway, because something inside them knows they need this.
You can be part of their healing.
It costs $3,000 to sponsor one soldier on this retreat. That covers their therapy, their care, and the intensive, life-changing work our team is doing with them in real time.
Help us send the next soldier on this journey.
