We're done waiting for government to come and save us.
We take veterans out in nature. Off the grid, away from the noise, for a few days that actually change something.
Four days on the land. Off the grid.
Swiss 8 runs four-day, nature-based retreats for veterans at NinGula Homestead.
Clinicians who've earned our trust. They're out there with us on the walk and by the fire, not behind a desk.
Blokes and women who've carried a lot. Out here they put some of it down, together.
About Swiss 8 →No desks. No waiting rooms.
A small group, real country, and the right people beside you the whole way.

On the walk
Days out on the land. Clinicians walk it with you.
By the fire
Nights with people who get it. Nobody performing, nobody judging.

In their own words
I haven't slept this well in ten years. I came to the retreat carrying a lot of pain from a shoulder injury. It had gotten to the point where I couldn't tie my hair up or even wash under my arm, and surgery looked like the only option left.
Since the retreat, I've been able to tie my hair up again, and I feel confident in using my shoulder again. Going to the retreat has changed my life.

Since the retreat, I feel the huge difference of not being bloated, my pain is lower and my training has been so good. And my brain clarity is better. I’ve noticed that my mood has been a lot more stable as well.

Same unit. Same mission. New uniform.
