This
four-week residential elective will provide the opportunity to
delve more deeply into our relationship with ourselves as healers
and our interconnectedness with the Earth. It will be a time for
spiritual development and personal exploration of our commitment
to our lives in community with all living things. We will look
at how we can help bring balance into our own lives to help support
our work as physicians/healers. We will examine how we can create
and sustain the environment around us that nurtures and facilitates
healing. We will bring science and spirit together “where
the two worlds touch”* and begin to understand the common
threads that weave it all together. Throughout the course we will
create a model of an integrative approach to medicine. There will
be an exploration of cross-cultural healing disciplines from the
perspective of traditional philosophies of healing as they are
currently practiced and as they relate to walking in balance with
the Earth. Nature will be our honored teacher as we also learn
from gifted physicians, practitioners, and one another about the
deeper places where healing lives and is manifest.
