Healing That Lasts
 
15Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice. 16He prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him. And he was a Samaritan. 17Then Jesus asked, "Were not ten made clean? But the other nine, where are they? 18Was none of them found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?" 19Then he said to him, "Get up and go on your way; your faith has made you well."

Seek healing, a refilling of energy and spirit,
as soon as you see that you need it.
You don't have to push yourself to give, do, or perform
when what your body, mind, soul, and emotions need
is to heal.

The medical art is a sacred trust. 
A physician should use his skill to help the sick according
to his ability and judgment,
but absolutely never to do harm.

"Healing," Papa would tell me, "is not a science,
but the intuitive art of wooing Nature."
