Where does Healing Begin?

Perhaps this is a chicken/egg kind of a question and we could also ask... When does healing end? What do we even mean by the word 'healing'? 

The word healing comes from Old English and means "to make whole". 

In the Tantric Yoga Philosophy of India, Wholeness is the fundamental reality and we as individuals are expressions of that Wholeness. Yet, most of us do not feel as if we are walking around every day feeling particularly Whole. Often our bodies hurt, our minds suffer, our hearts ache, our responsibilities and concerns fill us with busyness and disconnection.

The full range of Yoga practices (movement, breath, awareness, rest, and meditation, and ritual) give us the means to remember, reconnect and participate with our fundamental wholeness.  

We may choose to focus on movement that supports our frozen shoulder or aching back but at some point as we connect to the deepest part of ourselves we realize that it is the connection with our depth that is the real healing. This type of healing outlasts even our shoulder and back.

Connection with wholeness is the healing.
