By Yogesh Mohan - Jul 15, 2014
S., a young professional with a chronic non-healing stress fracture, arrives in a state of frustration and hopelessness. What follows is an amazing journey of self-healing and self-discovery, of doubts and frustrations, culminating in a whole new perspective towards body and life. The healing journey is recounted directly by the patient, retaining the authenticity of personal experience. This case holds a special significance for the therapist; for herein he first saw the power of love to heal his body. The case revealed many other intriguing mysteries of the body and its healing process, many of which may have universal implications. The consciousness approach is much more than a mere healing of the body or even the mind; it has the power to evoke change at a much more fundamental level of our being.
