A Writer/Healer: Literature, A Blueprint for Healing

Opal Palmer Adisa

Chapter Chapter 11 in Healing Cultures, 2001, pp 179-193 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In the world in which we live, sickness is considered a normal part of many people’s lives. In fact, the more we seem to advance technologically, the sicker more people are becoming. New diseases and aches, linked to social and psychological factors, are increasing; more people in modern, metropolitan societies are seeking alternative remedies. What can we do when we are sick? What do we ask for? Who will minister to us? What do we give ourselves? I say look to the power of words.
