Support for all those impacted as well as their family members and caregivers must start now!
The Medical Rehabilitation Hospital is a non-profit facility near Tel Aviv, that has been offering integrative rehabilitation and trauma healing to its patients with astonishing success. They are ready to use their expertise to support the people of Israel. This hospital is the only integrative rehabilitation hospital in the country. Their unique understanding of whole-person medicine, and the interplay between physical, mental, and emotional aspects of healing, makes their role in this crisis very essential.

Exceptional Care.
Medical Care Rehabilitation Hospital is not your average hospital. This is a unique integrative facility with astonishing results in healing disease and trauma. This hospital provides a level of expertise and holistic support for healing and processing trauma, unmatched in the general medical system. Through the hard work of the IMFA (Integrative Medicine For All), this hospital has been recognized by Insurance companies in Israel and serves as a shining example for the rest of the world for how integrative body-mind-spirit modalities coupled with radical compassion can bring about a more profound level of healing compared to the current standard of care.
On November 5, we are coming together to help our brothers and sisters in Israel, but also to support our own emotional processing, to learn, to be inspired and to co-create art!
We urge you to please clear your calendar so you can show up and invite your contacts around the world to attend online.

Program
Dr. Mitch Abrams:
How to Turn Fear Into Love and Action: The Science of Heart
Dr. Mitch Abrams will explore the science of interconnectedness and how it can radically shift our life perspective, allowing space to process the horrific events unfolding in Israel and Gaza. He will provide us with some practical tools for regulating our nervous systems and present a roadmap that, even in times of darkness, can help point us toward a brighter future.
Dr. Abrams will present a unique way of understanding the connection between personal and global health. He will discuss ways in which each of us can contribute to Tikkun Olam.
By showcasing his RADD ART initiative, Dr. Mitch will demonstrate how art can be used to transform moments of learning and healing into tangible support for the Israeli victims and their families affected by the recent attacks.
A Personal Message from Shauli Hercyk Paz:
"Dear beloveds,
Thank you so much for all your support. It means the world to us. We are facing a crisis of immense proportions. Thousands of wounded civilians and soldiers are in desperate need of care, and our hospitals in Israel are stretched to their limits. We receive 150 requests every day to admit rehabilitation patients, but we lack the rooms to accommodate them.
We are now raising funds to adjust three more wards as rehabilitation units, and we are opening a trauma center to treat PTSD patients and their families as soon as possible. We are already hosting more than 50 patients from the south, families with children who have endured unimaginable trauma. The children, who were once unable to smile, are now finding their joy again, thanks to the dedicated work of our 100 volunteers.
This level of trauma can create lifelong emotional wounds, and we need to intervene urgently. We desperately need your help to raise the funds necessary to assist as many injured and traumatized individuals as possible."
