Free for Heroes
Apply through the Foundation
Some things don't clock out when the uniform comes off.
The aches you stopped mentioning. The noise that keeps you up at night. Most veterans learn to carry it quietly and keep moving.
If you carry pain from service, or the noise that keeps you up at night, come sit in. Bring a quiet room and an open mind. No pocket watch required.
Our guest
Meet Tommy G, the Hockeytown Hypnotist.
Tommy Giorlando, known as Tommy G, the Hockeytown Hypnotist, started out convinced hypnosis was fake. Then he saw what it could do, and went from skeptic to internationally recognized stage hypnotist out of the Detroit area.
Mentored by renowned hypnotist Tom Silver, Tommy grounds his work in how the mind actually works. Today he takes it well past the stage, helping people work through trauma and addiction, and he wrote a self-hypnosis book so people can keep the work going at home.
This Veterans Day, Tommy is giving his time for free. He's doing it from overflow, to help the people who served carry a little less and heal a little more. We're grateful, and a little proud he said yes.

Pain and Healing Hypnosis with Tommy G
Tommy runs the rest of the hour his way. He walks you through what to expect, guides the group through the session, and makes room for your questions.
How to get the most from it
Set yourself up for a quiet hour.
- 01
Find a quiet room. Somewhere you won't be interrupted for the hour.
- 02
Get comfortable. A good chair, headphones if you have them, and your phone on silent.
- 03
Stay parked. Don't join while driving or doing anything that needs your full attention.
- 04
Bring an open mind. That's the only gear you need.
Save your seat
Two doors in. Pick yours.

About the room
Veterans Day is one hour. Veteran Philanthropist meets all year.
Veteran Philanthropist is where the club takes part in the work of The No More 9 to 5 Foundation, a 501(c)(3) that has served more than 100 veterans. It isn't only for veterans, and you don't need nonprofit experience.
After Veterans Day, the room keeps meeting on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays at 3:00 PM Eastern. Come back and bring a friend.
FAQ
Questions before you join
Is it really free?
Yes, for Heroes. Tommy G is donating his time, and Heroes join free through the Foundation.
Who counts as a Hero?
Veterans, military spouses, firefighters and other first responders, healers in medicine and mental health, teachers and nonprofit workers. Retired first responders qualify too.
I've never tried hypnosis. What should I expect?
Tommy walks everyone through what to expect at the start of the session. Just find a quiet spot, get comfortable, and follow along at your own pace.
Does this replace my medical care?
No. This session complements care from the VA or your doctor. It does not replace it.
Is this the regular Veteran Philanthropist meeting?
It's a special Veterans Day edition in the usual 2nd Wednesday, 3:00 PM slot, and Tommy has the floor for the hour. The room returns to its regular format after that.
