"Letters from the Soul Vol 2 Lost in the Shadows A Collection of Military Poetry. I very much enjoyed reading these wonderful poems. It’s clear the author has knowledge of conflict and of both being a veteran and working with veterans. I think every veteran or serving personnel who reads these poems, regardless of background or which country they served with, will find them thought provoking and very familiar, because they reflect in a very real and hard hitting way, the trauma that is experienced by veterans and those who are close to them"

"Letters from the Soul Lost in the Shadows A Collection of Military Poetry. For those who have not walked the veteran’s path, this book is a glimpse into their lived experience both past and present. For those who are on that path, it is a book of recalled images and memories of times past and present but also offers a path where some peace and rest can be found. Audra shares and gives voice to those who are conditioned to be silent and trained to be taciturn on their struggle. A path to healing is offered by embracing this common bond among all veterans, with a second path found in the recognition of who and what a veteran is by those who have not served"

"I recently ordered Letters from the Soul Vol 1. Immediately I was impressed by the quality of the print the laminate pages making easy turning (and it is a page turner). Each piece tells its own story in a way that is succinct and emotionally evocative. Some ways through there is a tonal shift from celebrating the feats of Ex-servicemen and women to exploring the emotional impact and decay experienced by them, highlighting the need for change in our society. If we don't look after our hero's then who will.

"I became aware of the CHANGED Program while attending a webinar on PTSD. I am a Military Veteran. I have, with Pride served my country domestically and internationally at the very highest level. In the conduct of those duties I experienced traumatic events. My exposure to those events had a negative impact on my ability to manage my feelings, take part in relationships and make wise life choices. The CHANGED program has been a lifeline for me. I found a shared language with the facilitators that helped immediately to lay a foundation in which trust was established and set a platform for relationship to be fostered. In participating in this program, I have not just acquired tools on managing my feelings, behaviour and thinking. I have been empowered to change by a step by step. cognitive process that has seen me become aware of negative learned behaviours and thought patterns, this enabled me to make changes internally and not another party outside of me attempting to ‘Fix’ me. Finally, I have recommended this program to others. I freely advocate the CHANGED program because it helped me. I have experienced a drop off and in some cases an eradication of paralysing learned behaviours, and I have developed a keen awareness of Identifying and positively analysing my behaviour patterns. I wish I had been exposed to the CHANGED Program 20yrs ago. Thank you"
