Quotes for this weeks blog
And Also...

 I am in the process of catching up with myself and writing the topics for the upcoming blog theme - The Spirit of Healing. In the 90's I wrote a book called The Spirit of Healing (out of print but a summary is on the web site and can be downloaded as a pdf. ) The book was all about healing body, mind and soul. At the time I stressed that healing and curing were not the same, that you could be cured of an illness and not be healed, and vice versa. Nevertheless if you were "healed" this led to meaning in one's life which was also likely to enhance the Inner Healer with a greater possibility for cure as well. It is becoming more apparent as neuroscience links with ancient wisdom that whatever heals the spirit, helps heal the body mostly by enhancing the immune system. This will become more clear as the new blog topic develops, as we drift away from the template of nature healing and wilderness rapture.
