The Healer Is Within: A Healing Memoir and Transformational Guide - Paperback

by Katherine Hand (Author)

Katherine Hand was working in neuroscience research on approaches to chronic pain when she had a fluke accident. Suddenly debilitated by relentless, paralyzing pain, she found herself in the same position as those she had so recently studied. For months, her mysterious injury confounded doctors, who offered a range of diagnoses, from multiple sclerosis to brain stroke, Lou Gehrig's disease to paralysis of unknown origin. After being unconscious for almost 24 hours, Kat awoke with a pivotal realization that would help her endure years of grueling rehabilitation and the unpredictable nature of her recovery, and ultimately guide her back to health. Part memoir, part transformational guide, The Healer IS Within is an illuminating account of one woman's determination to make the impossible possible by healing herself from paralysis and a roadmap for readers' empowering them to tap into their own innate healing abilities.
