The Nature of Healing
Description
Students will examine the dynamic process of healing both within their own practice and/or experience and within new modalities they will explore for the first time. New healing methods to study will be chosen based on the five categories of alternative and complementary practices developed by National Institutes of Health, National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, and Complementary and Alternative Medicine. The categories include: Alternative Medical Systems, Mind-Body Interventions, Biological-based Therapies, Manipulative and Body-based Methods, and Energy Therapies.
Students will begin by discussing and writing about their already considered understanding of healing and then extend their experience by working with five new modalities of healing, one from each of the five categories of CAM as identified by NCCAM. The exploration of new methods may be either by experiencing treatment by a skilled practitioner, or by taking training in the methods, as appropriate. The students will chose the new modalities to explore and appropriate investigative methods in consultation with the instructor and consistent with the students personal and professional goals.
