Opis

This ground breaking new work makes a quantum leap in the exploration of two pivotal concepts in current healthcare: Intentionality and Healing. Intentionality is the heart and soul of healing, but what is it? Meticulously researched and fluently written, Dr. Zahoureks work goes beyond previous writers and researchers in elucidating these concepts through the voices and actions of both healers and healees. Her thorough thoughtful analysis has enabled her to describe the evolutionary and transforming nature of intentionality and the essence of healing. Taking her findings one step further, she develops a theory, Intentionality, the Matrix of Healing. This theory describes the origins, and dimensions of Intentionality. Talents and experiences influence development and the expression of intentionality and healing. Concepts of consciousness, paradox and synchronicity are interwoven. This new theory paves the way for application in clinical situations, widening the breadth of education in the healing professions and lighting the way for further research. This book is of great value to healing professionals engaged in any of those arenas.
