Dr Walter Harry Willies has taught in schools, colleges and universities since 1978 in the fields of language, literature, religious studies and complementary medicine. His unusual experience of inter-disciplinarity, academic exposure and people-skills has resulted in an ultimate confrontation: it’s easy to do something about healing and curing. It’s as easy as breathing, as natural as pointing, and utterly surprising in effectiveness.

Death is inevitable. Does it have meaning? Emotional pain is universal. Is it avoidable? Illness and disease are rife. What can the ordinary person do to help?

Dr Willies answers these questions by dealing with confusing concepts and teaching techniques that assist healing and curing. His approach is more experiential and clinical than conceptual. Learning to assist healing and curing is like learning any other skill. Guidance is helpful, and practise is what it takes. One has simply to begin.
