"There is a whole publishing industry based on Americans' love of self-help
and self-improvement. What most self-help books have in common, though, is
that the way to help yourself is to do what the author prescribes. Caren's
book diverges from the pattern in its assumption that self-healing is not
acheived by following her prescription but by finding your own. Healing
Words is filled with memorable stories and sets up a dynamic for
self-exploration and self-understanding. The only requirement is an
openness
to the possibility that you really can help yourself to heal."
~ LeMoyne
Mercer, editor Healthy Living News

"
~ Mirka Knaster, author of Discovering the Body’s Wisdom
"An inspired idea whose time has come. A great way to overcome the hopelessness and helplessness of the many mind-boggling illnesses that plague out society today.
