The Gentle Wind Project® has been exploring new pathways to alleviating mental and emotional suffering since the late 1970's.

Instruments have been designed around many of the principles in Tibetan Medicine.




A New Beginning

In November of 1983, after studying human behavior for almost two decades, a small group of people founded a non-profit organization with the single goal of exploring new pathways to alleviating mental and emotional suffering. The organization was called Gentle Wind Retreat and later became known as The Gentle Wind Project®.

For many years, the project studied how and why humanity had incurred so much mental and emotional harm. The project was seeking mathematical solutions to human suffering that could reach beyond the scope of counseling and psychotherapy. To this end, the project developed a technology in the form of instruments that can be held in a person's hand for the purpose of restoring mental and emotional balance.

The project viewed the human consciousness in energetic terms, basing its understanding on many of the principles of Tibetan medicine, including the acupuncture meridian system and the idea that healthy life force is a function of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. Three of the major acupuncture meridians converge in a person's hand, including the meridian that leads to the heart, the place where many hurts, wounds and stresses are stored. In our personal observations (as independent volunteers with no financial interests in the project), many people have found the use of these instruments to be effective in alleviating mental and emotional distress.

Some of the instruments are the size of a hockey puck. Others look more like a postcard. They all use colorful symbols that are imbedded with natural substances such as herbs, cell salts and minerals. Over the years, the project developed many different instruments on the way to finding the least expensive and most efficient way to solve some mental and emotional distress. Many thousands of Instruments have been donated to people in regions where war, poverty, political unrest and natural disasters have taken a toll on the well-being of people exposed to those conditions.

Today, The Gentle Wind Project® is an all new, all volunteer organization. We are not a non-profit nor are we a profit making company. We do not accept donations or payment in any form. We are a group of people who want to make the world a better, easier place. We are thousands in number and we represent many nations around the world. We have been helped by The Gentle Wind Project®  technology. Under our Constitutional First Amendment Right to express our personal opinions and share our experiences, we are here to let you know what we think and to offer our help free of charge to anyone on earth.

We are not a counseling service. We believe that counseling and therapy can be very helpful if you can find a therapist who truly likes you, is competent and enjoys your company. We are not here to make any claims about The Gentle Wind Project®  Instruments. We make no claims regarding physical, mental or emotional relief. We are just here to tell our stories and to make it possible for others to have the use of the technology if they so choose.

We invite you to visit our Opinions and Observations Page to hear  more about what we have to say. If you would like to receive help from our organization, you can call us at 1-775- 626-5437. If we are on another line or unable to take your call, please be sure to leave a message. We will call you back as soon as we can.

Finally, we hope that you will let other people know that we are here. We cannot promise that every person will obtain the outcome that he or she might be looking for. We can only say that we will do our best to help.
