Healing Conversations is Being Given as a Year Round Gift and Resource

Healing Conversations is a primer on listening that can help anyone be better able to respond during an awkward or uncomfortable moment when care or support is needed.  People often give away their copy of the book within hours or days of receiving it.

They will then pick up some extra copies to have on hand - at work or at home - just in case something comes up and a friend or colleague needs a resource or some comfort.  

You can help increase the capacity of others to be able to listen without fixing, judging or rescuing by giving copies away to any of the following:

  • Your doctor, nurse, or chiropractor
  • Minister, Rabbi, or spiritual guide
  • Clients and customers
  • Massage or physical therapist
  • Psychologist or counselor
  • Your boss, colleagues, or employees
  • Your child's teacher, principal, or coach
  • Your local library or hospital
  • Hospice worker or nurse
  • Recovery or support group
  • Graduating students
  • Hairdresser or barber
  • Your family
  • Lay ministry and caring community members
  • Newlyweds
  • Your friends or neighbors
  • Anyone who needs a little TLC

"Captured here in Healing Conversations are words of wisdom that can enhance personal growth as well as professional development."
