Healing is not used here in the western sense of “restoring someone to health,†but in a more traditional, broader way relating to a movement towards wholeness. It may include increasing physical health and vigor– or it may focus on creating a meaningful and rich life in the face of physical, psychological, spiritual, environmental or relational difficulties.
About the Logo
The logo is formed from five spirals each representing an aspect of the psyche: Intellect, emotion, spirit, body and connection. The spiral was chosen because of its historical roots as a prominent and meaningful symbol since the beginning of humanity’s use of art and language, and because it can visually represent the layers and texture associated with these aspects of the self. The spirals are drawn with one continuous line representing interconnectedness. Each set of five spirals is connected to an inner set and another inner set, representing the deepening layers of self and psyche as one explores one’s inner world. Connection refers to both the relational part of the self which connects us to other people, the planet and the forces of the universe and the interconnectedness of the various aspects of the self.
