A Road to Wellness

The Green Road: Using nature to promote commemoration, restoration, and healing for our Nation’s Wounded Warriors.

The invisible wounds of modern war affect a staggering number of American troops. To help them heal, the military is turning to nature. And ground zero is a wild yet serene, wooded green space created by the Institute for Integrative Health at the home of the nation’s flagship military medical center.

This short documentary film, The Road to Wellness, shares poignant stories of healing and recovery from the traumas of war—from the voices of the soldiers themselves.

This short film is part of the Nature Sacred Awards film series—a collection of stories from across the country that demonstrate nature’s potent abilities to strengthen people and communities. Experience the Nature Effect.
