years, we have been involved with caring for the carers, es
sionals who have become exhausted and burned out in their work.
to find space that would allow carers to let go of the ties that bind tî
hich have come to bring them more harm than good.
i ation occurs at many levels of society - between professionals and lay
professionals themselves, between organisations and the staff they e:
separation can keep knowledge and practices apart; only religious i
chaplains, or the occasional lecture deal with spirituality and yet it seems :
business; every occupation has some kind of caring component.
It is this disconnection that we address in this book — a separation that keeps people not
only from relating to each other but also to themselves and that which is beyond the self.
Without this connection, this right relationship, sacred space cannot reveal itself, and
without an awareness of and reverence for the presence of the sacred, true healing and
caring cannot emerge.
This book is about pathways towards right relationships for individuals, groups and
organisations; restoring wholeness, healing and caring. (From the Preface)
This book emphasises the importance of the places and sites where we go to be
healed. We should select them as carefully as drugs and surgical procedures. Thanks
to Wright and Sayre-Adams for returning this concept to prominence.
Larry Dossey, MD
Wright and Sayre-Adams make a powerful case for the healing power of sacred
spaces and rituals. This is crucial not just for patients but for anyone involved in
healthcare. Highly recommended!
