Definitions of Healing  
In English dictionaries, to heal means to:
  • Restore to Health, Soundness, Wholeness
  • Repair, Cure
  • Cause an Undesirable Condition to be Overcome
  • Free from Disease or Ailment
  • Restore to Original Purity or Integrity

For the purpose of looking at healing the human condition, body-mind-spirit as well as emotional body and energetic systems, I would like to focus on the last of these aspects - restoring to original purity or integrity.

I believe that our true nature is to be in a state of peace, love and joy; and that we are traumatized beginning in infancy, perhaps even in the womb, by our basic needs not being met. The world became an unsafe place. In order to survive, we learned to disconnect ourselves from our source, and from the flow of wonder, creativity and love that holds our greatest potential and happiness.

In summary, I am proposing a definition of healing as: Reconnecting with our Divine Nature. Or, I should say, rather, that this is the type of healing that is the topic of and creates the context for this web site. Using our story, healing involves defusing triggers, repairing our belief system; and requires a non-triggering, or minimally-triggering environment.

Note: the word healing can also be an adjective - describing something that helps healing, such as a healing salve, or a healing community.
