At Desert Rose Veteran Wellness,
we provide a community that offers instruction, education and support in yoga, movement, meditation and breathwork
Welcome To
Desert Rose Veteran Wellness
We are a FREE online yoga studio that teaches veterans how to access the tools they already have within to heal themselves, using movement, meditation, and breathwork.
DRVW is a place to learn and practice the intentional movement of your mind and body to experience a better quality of life. Yoga empowers us with the ability to move freely in our bodies, regulate our nervous system, manage energy levels, and improve self-efficacy and resilience when faced with strong emotions.
Desert Rose Key Elements of Wellness
All modules are available online through the membership and can be practiced anywhere from your bedroom, in the backyard, or on the top of a mountain.
Meditation
Meditation can potentially reverse the effects of stress and trauma while increasing cortical thickness, which can counteract the aging of the brain. It also reduces blood pressure and shrinks the amygdala, which lowers stress. You will have noticeable results within 6 - 8 sessions.
Yoga + Movement
Movement reduces stress levels, promotes oxygen uptake, and causes new brain cells to grow in the hippocampus. This helps with memory, releases endorphins, lowers blood pressure, reduces anxiety symptoms, reduces levels of cortisol, improves immune function, helps with sleeplessness, helps manage pain, and lowers heart rate variability.
Breath
Breath balances the nervous system and resets communication from the autonomic nervous system to the heart muscle, reduces hyperarousal, is grounding, and steadies the mind.

What Desert Rose Clients Are Saying...
Meet Travis O.
"The staff, care, and attention I received from Desert Rose Yoga's Veteran Wellness program were beyond reproach. They considered my mental and medical issues and developed a comprehensive treatment plan. I was suffering from several ailments related to my 20 years of Special Operations service. Each, they addressed with understanding, compassion, and knowledge.
One amazing example of this was a here too for an untreatable issue with recurring corkscrew esophageal spasms that would leave me doubled over in pain for hours once or twice a week. After ONE session of guided deep meditation with Mrs. Hurt that was focused on that problem, it was resolved.
I have not had another spasm for 6 months now, this alone was worth every minute and every dime.
I also received focused yoga and breathing sequences that have aided in coping, if not healing some of the other myriads of physical and mental issues that were manifesting. I had my reservations on this "alternative" medicine but after spending time working with Desert Rose Veteran Wellness I am a convert and believer in what they have to offer for Veterans and it should not be taken lightly."

Hello, I'm Margaret Osborn.
I am fiercely committed to guiding post-9/11 combat Veterans to achieve post-traumatic growth, so they can navigate the challenges of integrating into home life and take control of their own healing process.
If you are looking for a guide who can help you address issues such as healing from a TBI, PTS symptoms, moral injury, or any other trauma-related symptoms, you’ve come to the right place.
With 5 years of experience working with amazing clients with similar worries and concerns and guiding them to achieve remarkable success, my mission and commitment are to support veterans and their families and offer new tools and new ways of thinking about how to achieve the highest quality of life possible.
