"This series of podcasts are going to be on healing for the mind, body, and spirit. When our mind, body, and spirit is damaged or hurt we weaken and our lives can become unmanageable. Once we are in trouble mentally, physically, or spiritually we must go look for help, so we can live life to the fullest. We can and will reach our potential when we say hello to our problems and say goodbye to them with the help of healers, knowledge keepers, counsellors, and mentors. Healing is in ceremony, music, good food, counselling, meditation and positive activities. Our healing strengthens when we support others on the Healing Road." - Saa Hiil Thut (Gerry Oldman)
