Up Armor Collection

"I am truly thankful for the support I found in Project Healing Heroes through their Up Armor program. As a veteran and former law enforcement officer, I encountered significant challenges stemming from cumulative trauma in my careers. The Up Armor program equipped me with essential tools and resources that allowed me to confront and manage my struggles with PTSD. I wholeheartedly recommend this program to any veteran or first responder dealing with PTSD, as well as to those who want to better understand and support someone in that situation. Up Armor met me where I was and guided me to a safe place through its insightful pages."

"Dr. David Tharp’s "UP Armor" program has played a pivotal role in enhancing the overall holistic health of our military forces, veterans, and their families. Through his research and innovative approach, he has developed advanced techniques through 50 integrated modules that have proven to be highly effective in addressing the issues our warriors so often feel stigmatized by. The UP Armor program has already begun to save countless lives and significantly boosted the confidence and morale of the warriors and warrior families that The Warrior’s Journey comes in contact with every day.

One of the commendable aspects of Dr. Tharp's program is its focus on continual improvement, incorporating mental health and spiritual fitness. This comprehensive program is pushing the boundaries of care that specifically deals with “Invisible Wounds”, constantly exploring the real unique issue that military service creates for our troops and their families.

Overall, the "UP Armor" system spearheaded by Dr. David Tharp and his team has revolutionized the way we approach the kind of aftercare needed to bring our military members, veterans, and their families to real places of healing. Thanks to his efforts, our service members can enter the battlefield, deal with the challenges of military life, to include transition to civilian life with increased confidence and hope for a healthy future."

"Here at Hope for the Heart, we are excited to partner with Dr. David Tharp and his team at Project Healing Heroes, to help produce a dynamic and critically needed video training resource based on the Up Armor content, and specifically designed for those who have walked through and survived trauma. It is professionally informed, biblically-based, compassionately presented, and I believe, carries a strong and relevant message of hope to the brokenhearted."

"David Tharp is a true thought leader in faith-based protocols for combat trauma. His Up Armor series is a masterpiece. Great job ICCI."

"Drs. Tharp Up Armor series has been incredibly helpful for me. I have a strong disdain for surface-level “feel-good” works, but this series is anything but that. It blends spiritual truths with science and humor in a practical way. While there is a lot of information, it is well-organized into manageable sections that encourage synthesis and application. The series has made me a better version of myself, but I need to re-read it or join a local or online group to fully benefit from all it offers."

"It is an anomaly to encounter a book series that looks into the heart of the myriad of issues service members face. The UpArmor series is a phenomenal resource written by a combat veteran, providing tangible resources for individuals to heal from their hidden wounds. We will incorporate the UpArmor series into our programming as we see the value in what it brings to the lives of the individuals who use it. "
