From Lee Dazey, 4/5/05, Western Shoshone Defense Project

Away from the hustle bustle of the city or a busy office, Poo Ha Bah provided a generous space for our organization's board, staff and allies to focus upon our issues from a fresh perspective while at the same time providing a relaxing retreat and healing hot waters for hard working board and staff members to renew themselves and balance the outer work with the inner. Far away enough from the lights of Las Vegas, it is possible to see all the stars and planets at night lending itself to finding clarity in our thinking and a quietness permeates Poo Ha Bah that allows the wind, birds and animals a voice in the decision making. Many thanks to Corbin Harney for his vision of Poo Ha Bah, the spirit of the place, those who worked hard to build it and the special staff who make you feel welcome to be there.

I had been diagnosed with moderate to severe osteoporosis and arthritis. I had been experiencing increasing back and hip pain... I was told at that time that I would need to restrict my normal activities so I wouldn't break any bones and would be taking medications probably for the rest of my life... My daughter had met and talked to Corbin the summer before... She really liked Corbin and thought the place sounded interesting. When she heard about my condition, she suggested we go there and check it out. I was a little skeptical but we called and set up the trip for November.

Corbin is a true healer. I had three healing sessions with him... [In] the first one Corbin could see the pain as red down my spine. The next two, the red and the pain were turning white and I felt more comfortable. During the third healing I had an incredible and very personal experience which for me is still very vivid and real... I went to Poo-Ha-Bah hoping for some sort of physical healing. I came away with a spiritual healing and the realization that a sick spirit creates a sick body. I am eternally grateful...

Being a non-Native American, I was feeling a little like I would be intruding... Contrary to my fears, my daughter and I felt totally comfortable and welcomed into that gracious healing environment.
