Our Commitment to Diversity

Healing Journeys is committed to diversity and pledges to include, welcome, and support all individuals of any race, ethnicity, national origin, gender, age, socioeconomic background, religion, sexual orientation, and disability.

Purpose

The purpose of this program is to educate, inspire, connect, and celebrate all whose lives have been touched by cancer.

  • Cancer can be viewed as both devastating and rewarding.
  • When we view cancer in the context of the whole person (body, mind, emotions and spirit), its transformative potential as an awakening for the soul and spirit is realized. Only then can we see it as an opportunity and utilize its gifts.

“Thanks for creating this space where I can begin to come to terms with a cancer diagnosis. Thank you for the love…”

Who Should Attend

  • Women and men touched by cancer.
  • Healthcare providers.
  • People supporting friends or family with cancer.

Conference Objectives

  • Differentiate between curing the body and healing the person.
  • Rekindle hope and motivation to live fully in the present.
  • Explore cancer as an awakening with transformative potential.
  • Celebrate the healing capacity of the human spirit.
  • Convey how diet and nutrition can help control cancer and promote wellness.
  • Facilitate healing from within as an essential component of total health.
  • Experience the physical and emotional benefits of group support.
  • Incorporate stories, music and laughter as part of the healing process.
  • Explore the impact of psycho-social and spiritual practices on the immune system.
  • Facilitate connection among people and organizations with common goals and concerns.
