As some of you will know, until recently I was away from Medium (apart from a handful of posts) for more than a year, beginning when I was preparing to move from England last spring and return to Canada.

Itis delightful to realize that we have so much freedom, to write and re-write our stories. Although I have known pain (physical and emotional), I guess I may never be able to relate to other people’s pain. Probably because my experience may not seem as severe as other experiences, or I can sa...

Perhaps one of the first questions that arises from the knowledge that we (and everything else) have a magnetic field is this: can we also use fields or magnets to intervene therapeutically? Over the last two thousand years, magnets have been studied and used by alchemists, healers and ...

Imagine a soft stream of healing light descending upon us from the cosmos, caressing our beings with its warm embrace. With each inhalation, we draw in this revitalizing energy; with each exhalation, we rele...

I used to believe I had to seek healing from outside sources whether through traditional talk therapy, Reiki, or acupuncture; but now I realize that healing happens naturally in our everyday lives.
