Warriors’ Ascent

Veteran-Founded | Veteran-Led | Evidence-Based Healing

 

Warriors’ Ascent is a veteran-founded, veteran-led 501(c)(3) based in Kansas City, Missouri, dedicated to helping veterans, service members, and first responders heal from post-traumatic stress and moral injury through a rigorously grounded, non-pharmacological approach.
 
Their five-day immersive program has been formally studied and validated in a peer-reviewed article published by the American Psychological Association in the Journal of Psychotherapy Integration. The research identified Warriors’ Ascent as a clinically effective, well-tolerated model utilizing a Multimodal Group Therapy (MMGT) framework that integrates three evidence-based modalities:

 

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Mindfulness-Based Therapy (MBT)
  • Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)
 
These modalities are paired with structured self-care practices that empower participants with skills that restore agency, emotional regulation, and meaning, rather than reliance on medication alone.
 
At its core, Warriors’ Ascent fosters an environment of unconditional positive regard and deep community, where healing occurs in relationship, not isolation. Participants care for:

 

  • The Mind through mindfulness, meditation, and trauma-informed education
  • The Body through yoga, functional movement, mobility, nutrition, and somatic regulation
  • The Soul through ceremony, catharsis, warrior rituals, and guided reflection supporting identity repair and wholeness
 
Healing extends well beyond the five-day experience through encouragement of ongoing therapy when needed, daily ownership of learned practices, and lifelong connection to a strong alumni community.
 
Offered at no cost to participants beyond travel, Warriors’ Ascent stands as a rare, evidence-backed model integrating mind, body, and soul helping those who serve not merely cope, but truly heal and thrive.

Live Bliss & Warriors’ Ascent:

A Decade of Aligned Healing

 

For more than a decade, Live Bliss has walked alongside veterans, service members, and first responders on the path of intentional healing many of whom have also participated in the Warriors’ Ascent immersive program.
 
Founded by a Gulf War veteran who personally experienced Warriors’ Ascent as part of the clinical cohort studied by the American Psychological Association, Live Bliss brings a deeply informed, lived understanding of trauma recovery, moral injury, and post-traumatic growth. This firsthand experience has meaningfully shaped Live Bliss programming, philosophy, and community culture.
 
Through ongoing collaboration and shared values, Live Bliss has supported Warriors’ Ascent participants and alumni by reinforcing the daily practices essential to long-term healing including mindfulness, yoga, self-regulation, intentional living, and community accountability. Participants frequently describe Live Bliss as a bridge between immersive healing experiences and sustainable, everyday integration.
 
Together, Live Bliss and Warriors’ Ascent exemplify a complementary, non-pharmacological approach to healing—one that restores agency, cultivates self-trust, and empowers veterans to move beyond coping toward lasting resilience, purpose, and wholeness.
