Introduction

This is a collection of essays written for the medical profession. It is about healing, about healing yourself and finding the healer within you. It is for the doctor and the patient within you because you must heal yourself before you can heal others.

It is the story of one physician's journey from a life in medicine experienced on the edge of a cliff through her journey of self-awareness and self-love to a place where healing energy overflows easily to others. Dr Jemiolo explores teachings and meditative techniques which have helped her to accept negative emotions, to learn from them and let them go. These practices allow one to redirect energy inward to loving and caring for self.

Spiritual Journey and Benefits

The author describes a spiritual journey connecting to the spirit within ourselves, where one can access his or her own infinite wisdom and compassion. This book could benefit physicians who are unhappy in their profession. It is a must-read book for all medical students. Each chapter is a discussion topic for a resident or practicing physician support group.

New Way of Healing

The message of Healing the Healer speaks to a new way of healing. Here the patient is no longer a problem to be fixed. The physician is no longer driven by fear trying to control the enemy in illness. The healer understands resistance to healing and allows death.

When physicians learn to accept and love themselves, it will overflow to their patients honestly and openly, with respect and compassion. Patients will be heard and understood and healed.
