As indigenous people, we have unique perspectives on life, family and sickness. “We believe that most illness starts with the spirit – it invades the mind, and then manifests itself physically,” said Chris in this U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs interview. “When Carla came, we talked to her about the spiritual aspect of her care and verbalizing positive language into existence.”

It’s not predictable and at times it is very tough for Carla, but she fights on and continues to live her vision statement: “To be on a healing journey, on a healing mountain and search for a cure”

We are proud at the Sanctuary on the Trail to be part of Carla's journey and to be interviewed by the Department of Veteran Affairs. Blessings to all and to good possibilities in 2020.

Meanwhile, storyboard your problems and find solutions to create a life you are happiest living.
