TESTIMONIALS
What our community says about this course:
"This should be taught in every institution."
"I just finished the Trauma Training for Humans in Service Course and am realizing that this should be taught in high school but in the very least, it should be taught in ALL institutions. This is important material indeed."
- Sandra H.
"I thought I knew about trauma..."
"I have been in the field of psychology for 8 years now working primarily with refugees. I thought I knew about trauma but really only one facet of trauma before this course. I really loved Mindi's approach and depth to this very important subject."
- Corinne Day
"I use Mindi's course almost every single day."
"I am not a healer or teacher or even someone who interfaces with humans outside of my family every day, BUT - I use this material every single day of my life - with my kids and my wife. It is beyond applicable."
- Jason Roberts
Trauma Training for Humans in Service
Because healing isn’t a task—it’s a way of being. This training is different. It doesn’t stop at the wound. It teaches you how to hold space for the full story.
💬 From the Instructor
"I remember when I first heard about the atrocities in Tibet. I wanted to help. But I knew I didn’t have the tools to meet that level of suffering without also possibly traumatizing myself. That was the beginning of this journey.”
— Mindi Yeshe Drönme,
Founder of Inner Ocean Empowerment Project, Acupuncturist, Herbalist, Wilderness First Responder, and Global Health Activist
