Cancer As a Turning Point: From Surviving to Thriving™
San Rafael - September 13-14, 2003
Comments from participants
I’m 2 ½ years from my diagnosis
and coming here every year helps me see how far I have come. It
feels like a beautiful celebration of life - of my life.
Getting back the stillness of spirit each year and remembering
how powerful the healer within is. These conferences are so encouraging
and empowering. Thank you!
The conference “walks its talk".
Bringing art, poetry and music to the stage helps us notice that
there is more to this healing journey than putting one foot in
front of another. There is a lovely mixture of joy, music, words
of hope and healing, and new thoughts.
The variety was striking. I noticed how almost every person’s
talk found a place in my soul in some way. Please accept my deepest
gratitude for all the work you all put into making such a fabulous,
fun, and powerfully spiritual event take place.
Wonderful mix of speakers and performers. A very supportive and
uplifting experience. Food for healing.
Thank you for a wonderful conference. My eyes, heart, and soul
have been opened.
A fantastic “Tour de Force”. I was only diagnosed
with breast cancer August 1 and had a lumpectomy with node excision
August 13th. The conference gave me much to think about to help
me confront my own life threatening disease. Joy and pathos. It
was a life affirming experience.
Thank you so much for touching my soul!
Another great week end. I leave with some
more parts of myself unveiled. Feeling alive and healthy.
I’ve been coming to Healing Journeys since 1999. Each year
I put it on my calendar as a “MUST”. It is so uplifting.
I’ve been in remission for almost three years and come now
to support those newly diagnosed...and to give thanks for my healing...an
on-going process.
It was all wonderful. Good balance of art, music, info, ambience,
passion, love. I felt nourished and cared for.
I am truly amazed that you have put this event on at no cost to
participants. Every aspect was done in a very professional way.
Very impressive!
Thank you! The conference helped me see that I am part of a larger
family that is bravely facing and surviving and thriving. I do
not feel so afraid and alone anymore.
So few words, I think I’ll get up and dance!
Thank you so much for replenishing my spirit and soul again! I
look forward to this conference every year. It is so true - the
best things in life are free.
You turn every auditorium into a cathedral for healing with this
conference. Congratulations on living fully through your vision.
I really needed this!! - especially this year after a difficult
summer. Please keep up the good work. The quality of each part
is amazing.
A very strong message of Taking Care of Yourself, by having snacks
available, massage therapists, places to rest, and places to offer
prayers.
Please know how much I have healed and grown well with each year.
Thank you for all you do and all the generous choices you make.
An amazing, wonderful, uplifting event coming always when I need
it. Thank you.
