"I have been extremely fortunate to have been taught so many things by the patients I have been invited to serve. If we listen carefully enough to our minds and bodies we can access and control the natural healing patterns in our bodymind. I have a profound gratitude and respect for the suffering patients who have come into my care who have cooperatively helped develop this growing body of work."
