    Women as Healers: Voices of Vibrancy

    Picture
    I first met Tami Briggs in the fall of 1992 during an annual Westberg Parish Nurse Symposium which my office sponsored. Tami was one of the vendors at our conference that  year. In later years Tami, and her associate at the time, graced our worship services and meal times with their lilting, peaceful harp music. I felt an instant "connection" when I met Tami. In a short period of time we came to know part of each other's stories. Knowing her and experiencing her healing music has touched my life deeply.

    Recently, Tami Briggs, therapeutic harpist, asked me to contribute to her newest book, “Women as Healers: Voices of Vibrancy.”  I am excited to be a part of this collaborative effort with many other women around the world.
     
    Here’s a description of the book:
        From Nebraska to the Netherlands, India to Iran, and Serbia to South Carolina (and many other U.S. states), the 31 women featured in Women as Healers: Voices of Vibrancy are all gifted healers. As they share their stories, they give us many insights on how to help heal the world. Some work for corporations and institutions; many of them are self-employed. They are from all walks of life, doing extraordinary things to help make our world a better place. In this book you will read about life-changing experiences from authors, artists, consultants, nurses, educators, leaders, and therapists – creators all. 
        Many of the contributing authors have suffered great tragedies and losses, yet they demonstrate to all of us resiliency and great strength. They are pioneers – powerful, spiritual and spirited. You will likely see yourself in many of these women’s heart-warming and touching stories. As they reflect on and share their journeys of healing, they model taking risks, beating the odds, being of great service, making significant differences in the world, and living their passions. 
        You will find these 31 vibrant women remarkable – truly inspirational, motivational, and encouraging. Both men and women have much to learn from them! They epitomize community and a strong support network, as they teach us about connecting – to our own hearts and to each other. They hold nothing back as they leave their beautiful legacies and exemplify this for you. The women in this book have found their voices of vibrancy and they invite you to do the same … it is time!
