Healing Resources Healing Resources

In the depth of winter cold, and it certainly has been cold this year, it's good to turn our thoughts from the dark to the light. Tonight the constellation of Leo the Lion, harbinger of spring, appears in the sky.

Closer to home, there are some wonderful sources of light in our lives: healing resources. One is Cambridge OPEN, where the wellness professionals offer Reiki, Healing Touch, Therapeutic Hypnosis. Spiritual Response Therapy, Massage, Ear Coning, Flower Essences, Reflexology, Jin Shin Jyutsu®, and Intuitive Energy treatments. I recently had two sessions with healing touch practitioner Sue Van Hook, with wonderful results.

Another healing resource is Healing Realms, a network of wellness professionals in Southern Washington County.

To this I would add the work of Rachel Naomi Remen, whose books Kitchen Table Wisdom and My Grandfather's Blessings, have been a great source of healing wisdom for me. Sample chapters of these books are available at Remen's website: http://www.rachelremen.com/.
