Retired U.S. Army Airborne Ranger Dusty Baxley talks about his years of experience working to bring the TM technique to active military and veterans all over the country.
Baxley is the Executive Director of Boulder Crest Retreat for Military and Veteran Wellness in Bluemont, Virginia. He was an Operations Specialist and served as part of the 82nd Airborne’s Combat Parachute Assault in Panama during Operation Just Cause and with the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment for Desert Shield and Desert Storm.
Since retiring, Baxley has dedicated his life, passion, and abilities to bringing relief, healing, and hope to our veterans experiencing post-traumatic stress. His personal journey of healing through the TM technique, combined with his pure passion for helping veterans, has motivated him to create a powerfully effective program for what psychologists call “post-traumatic growth.”
Baxley is a certified TM teacher and has developed and managed numerous TM-based projects for more than a thousand veterans all over the United States.
Mario Orsatti, the host of TM Talks and Senior Teacher of the Center for Health and Wellness, a division of the David Lynch Foundation, interviewed Dusty Baxley on May 30, 2021.
