THE ESSENCE OF HEALING
|

Garden at Grey Heron, the healing center of Andrea Mathieson, north of Toronto.
The essence of healing here is through flower essences created by Andrea, with poems for each essence. For some, the poetry is the gateway into the choice of essence for healing their issues.

Editorial MusingsWhat is Your Favorite Feather?
Daniel J. Benor, MD, ABHM
Each of us has props to support our beliefs – particularly in areas of our lives where we cannot prove these beliefs. These props are most helpful when we venture into the unknown, but may also hold us back from trusting in our own abilities to master the unknown.
ResearchGenetic Trait Transference Using A Homeopathic Process: A potentially novel discovery
M. Sue Benford, PhD, RN
“This paper reports a potentially novel discovery pertaining to a method of transferring adaptive genetic traits from one organism to another via a homeopathic process.” If validated, it may be a major contribution to the treatment of cancers. It may also shed new light on activation of genetic potentials.
Geriatric Applications of Craniosacral Therapy: Established allied health professionals’ use of a complementary modality
Edith G. Walsh, PhD, RN
This survey provides helpful suggestions for helping older people with a variety of symptoms. Therapist and client reports suggest craniosacral therapy is a helpful modality.
“While use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is well-documented in the elderly, little is known about the use of specific modalities other than chiropractic and acupuncture or of practice patterns of allied health professionals who integrate CAM into their clinical practice. Craniosacral therapy (CST), a derivative of osteopathy, was selected for study as over 50,000 health professionals have received training in this modality…” “This paper is based on… in-depth telephone interviews with 20 advanced CST practitioners…” “Given the lack of clinical trials related to this modality, the results of this exploratory study suggest that controlled studies of CST as an adjunct to regular care may be worthwhile, particularly for chronic pain.”
Living with Life ChallengesMethods of Leveks Therapy: Helping the normal change process within a person when normal change doesn’t seem to be happening by itself.
David M. Goldstein, PhD
This in-depth study demonstrates the value of single-case research, as well as confirming the value of the particular method that was studied.
“Method of Levels (MOL) Therapy is described and applied to the case of a woman whose husband died. MOL Therapy is derived from Perceptual Control Theory. Session to session changes within the woman were quantified by means of Q Methodology and Personal Construct analyses. MOL Therapy identifies the important conditions for therapy change to occur. The case study results were supportive of the ideas of MOL Therapy.”
Variations on the Theme of HealingSpirited Away: Where have all the children gone? And who’s to pay the Piper?
Clif Sanderson

Essence of Healing: Vibrational Infusion© of Flower Essences
Rev. Karin Cremasco, BEd, PhD, ThD, CCI
“Vibrational Infusion© is a method that uses intention to receive the benefits of flower essences (such as Andrea Mathieson’s Raven Essences) without ingesting them.” After developing and using this method for several years, Karin Cremasco found she could also teach others to use this vibrational essence method. Cremasco and Mathieson developed an agreement where Cremasco and her students pay Mathieson, the originator of the essences, a fee for the vibrational use of the essences.
