A Healer's Journey to Intuitive Knowing: The Heart of Therapeutic Touch, Paperback

An investigation of the inner experience and self-awakening of a healer during and after an energy healing session

- Explores the energetic flow, intuitive knowing, and sustained state of grounded centeredness that occur for a healer during the process of healing

- Reveals how healing transforms the healer and how that transformation may elicit more profound and radical healing results

- Examines how the healer establishes communication between her own inner self and that of the person requesting healing

In this, her final book, respected Therapeutic Touch cofounder Dolores Krieger explores the energetic flow, intuitive knowing, and grounded centeredness that occur for a healer during a healing session. She shows how, as healers access their inner energies of compassion and intention, they are often led through a personal spiritual transformation or a self-awakening.

Krieger explains the fundamentals of the energy healing process and how the healer establishes communication between her own Inner Self and that of the person receiving healing--reminding the patient of his or her own self-healing ability. Sharing case histories from Therapeutic Touch therapists as well as results from scientific studies on Therapeutic Touch, Krieger reveals how intuition and experiential knowing are key to the healing process. She also examines the practice of compassion as power with compassion acting as the catalyst for an entire cascade of hormonal, chemical, and energetic responses in the healer, which she embodies and then offers to the person in need.

Krieger reveals how healing transforms the healer and how that transformation may elicit more profound and radical healing results.
