WHAT IS A "HEALING" SESSION?
The words healing and healer come from the Greek root "hale" meaning whole. Holistic health is a reminder of the unity of all life, it is a system of care that is directed toward integration and balancing of body, mind, and spirit...to assist the total person, rather than treating just the disease. We are all wounded. No one has total freedom from stress or illness, although many try to hide from this fact. Yet, the more we hide from our woundedness, the more we set ourselves up for symptoms that may lead to illness. In Western Culture emphasis is placed throughout our lives on the high peaks, with the dark side-the shadow-being ignored. When a major stressor, disaster or illness occurs, the easiest course is to repress the meaning of the darkness...there is a part of us that always needs healing...the nurse acts as a facilitator to evoke the client's process of inner healing.
