For more than a decade The Healing Art of Writing conference has sought
to strengthen compassionate understanding between healthcare providers
and those who seek a state of well-being beyond the reach of surgery or
pharmacology. Together, the participants share the belief that being cured of
a disease is not the same as being healed, and that a practice of expressive
writing promotes both spiritual and physical healing. The writings presented
at the 2012 conference, collected here in Tell Me Again, are a powerful
testament to that belief. Within these pages you will hear, again and again,
words of truth, words that uplift, words that heal.
