Why Luke & Delta-level Connections? Painful experiences, haunting memories, deep-seated traumas, and shame can cause suffering so intense it feels like life is too much to bear. We understand because we've been there too. We struggled to talk about our experiences, fearing judgment, and found it even harder to process or find meaning in them. It wasn't until we were on the brink of losing everything that we recognized the urgent need for change. Our goal was to create the kind of wellness practice we desperately needed during our darkest times—a safe haven where we could seek help without the fear of shock, offense, or alienation. We envisioned a place where everyone could feel accepted, embraced, and cared for, which we believe is only possible through building trust. Trust in our partnership, trust in the healing process, and trust in the judgment-free environment we cultivate. Delta-level Connections was established for everyone who finds it hard to trust—here, things are different.
