Why SOF? 

Special Operations Forces (SOF) are composed of elite individuals in highly deployable units, engaged in military operations that target critical strategic and operational objectives. These specialized personnel possess skills and capabilities that go beyond those of conventional forces. However, alongside these warriors stand their spouses, who are equally as wise, sharp, and possess a strategic mindset and operational acumen uniquely tailored to support the demands of this life.  

 

At LRW we believe if we continue to address only the needs of the service member without supporting the family as a whole, we will inevitably see more marriages dissolve and tragic outcomes from unaddressed shame and guilt. These spouses hold the overlooked solutions to many hidden struggles in the community—their insights and lived experiences offer a vital path to authentic wellness for these warriors.  Lotus River Wellness provides a fully accredited, wellness-centered yoga teacher training program created specifically for SOF spouses. This program emphasizes holistic well-being, equipping spouses with tools to find balance, strengthen their inner resilience, and foster personal growth.  

 

With scholarships available to all spouses, our training opens doors to invaluable resources, empowering them to uplift their families and, in doing so, build a healthier, more resilient SOF community.
