What Does It Mean to Heal?

People often refer to me as a Healer.

I remember the first time someone called me a Healer. I had casually mentioned to a friend that I was starting my Healing Touch practice. She exclaimed, “You’re a Healer?! This is so amazing! You have to talk to my friend here–she has cancer…” and so on.

I was so uncomfortable with this title of Healer. It seemed that my friend thought that I could magically create healing. While I admit that there are times when the effect appears magical (in other words, that significant changes take place), I assure you that I am not the source.
