A groundbreaking surfing therapy program, ‘Hagal Sheli’ (My Wave), is helping Israelis heal from the trauma of the October 7 attacks.
By combining ocean-based activities with guided group discussions, the program has shown an 81% success rate in reducing PTSD symptoms, with participants—including released hostages and festival survivors—reclaiming trust and control over their lives.
Offering free sessions across 11 coastal locations, this initiative proves that, sometimes, the best way to navigate life’s waves is to ride them.
