About Keshet Ranch

Keshet Ranch was founded to provide a home, community, and practical tools for those dealing with post-trauma. We believe that true healing comes from transitioning from dependence to independence.

The ranch was born from the journey of Guy Chandler, a combat veteran who experienced a chain of traumas from a young age through his military service. After being labeled a "hopeless case" by the mental health system, Guy refused to accept the verdict. He embarked on deep research and discovered the power of therapeutic breathing, nervous system regulation, and therapeutic massage.

Understanding that no one should go through this hell alone — especially in light of the needs after October 7th — Guy initiated the establishment of Keshet Ranch to transform personal knowledge into collective healing.
