The aim of this study is to measure the impact of these H.O.O.V.E.S. healing intensives on Veteran participants using several psychological instruments. The investigators are planning to administer the demographic questionnaires and psychological instruments to Veteran participants before the healing intensives. Psychological instruments will be administered immediately pre-intervention, pre- and post-session for each session, post-intervention, 90, 120 and 360 days post-intervention. The primary aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session and pre- to post-intervention.

| H.O.O.V.E.S. Healing Intensives | Behavioral | "H.O.O.V.E.S. is a private, donor-supported charity dedicated to providing fully-funded, [4]-day, non-clinical healing intensives for veterans, their families and caregivers, and first responders across the nation who are seeking recovery from service-connected stress." 1 References 1.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Mean Difference in AAQII pre- to post-session and pre- to post-intervention | AAQII is a 10-item measure that assesses psychological flexibility, with higher values indicating greater psychological inflexibility. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates. | through study completion, an average of 5 years |
| Mean Difference in PANAS pre- to post-session and pre- to post-intervention | PANAS measures short-term positive and negative emotions. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates. | through study completion, an average of 5 years |
| Mean Difference in STAI pre- to post-session and pre- to post-intervention | The STAI tracks the symptoms of anxiety, and the total score ranges from 20 to 80. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates. | through study completion, an average of 5 years |
| Mean Difference in PCL pre- to post-session and pre- to post-intervention | PCL measures PTSD symptoms. The total PCL score can range from 17 to 85, with higher values indicating greater PTSD symptoms. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes pre- to post session (1 day = a session) and pre- to post-intervention using paired t-test as well as ANCOVA adjusting for the significant demographic or diagnostic covariates. | through study completion, an average of 5 years |
| Mean Difference in BDI pre- to post-session and pre- to post-intervention |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Mean Difference in AAQII pre- to post-session | AAQII is a 10-item measure that assesses psychological flexibility, with higher values indicating greater psychological inflexibility. The aim is to assess for statistically significant changes between post sessions using the repeated measure ANOVA. | through study completion, an average of 5 years |
