The ways in which people are using Eastern meditation and group psychotherapy to improve the healing capacities within their bodies are explored in "Healing From Within." "The Art of Healing" examines how hospitals are instituting new models of medical care that can help patients become active participants in their own healing. The final program in the series, "Wounded Healers," visits Commonweal, a health education facility in northern California where people with cancer help each other to heal even though a cure may be impossible.

In science class, we Project Director studied the material world, which we expected would someday be understood Robert A. Miller Supervising Editor and predicted down to the last molecule. In philosophy, we studied models of Christine Economos reality, based on the rational mind, that took no notice of conditions male and Graphic Designer female, sick and well, rich and poor. Yet every day in this divided world of B.T. Whitehill mind and body, our language betrayed the limitations of our categories. My Writers Lois Grippo parents talked about our friend the grocer, who "worried himself sick," and Richard Kelso my Uncle Carl believed that laughter could ease what ailed you. Over the Project Coordinator/Assistant Editor years, my interest in questions of mind, body, and health grew, both person- Lisa Keating Photo Researchers ally and professionally, and eventually led to HEALING AND THE MIND. Christina L. Draper David Reisman, Ed.D. I believe this series has particular relevance to young people. For them to Electronic Composition understand the connection between emotions and health is important under Lou Lomurno any circumstances, but such understanding is imperative today, given the life Copy Editor Edwina McMahon and death implications of so many decisions confronting teenagers, from the Proofreader use of drugs to issues of sex. In the words of Vaclav Havel, "Every education Kevin E. Kennedy is a kind of inward journey." The education young people receive today surely Core Consultants must lead them into a deeper understanding of the inner sources of health.

We Advances,The Journal of Mind-Body Health encountered new questions, too for which there are not yet answers. Judy Doctoroff O'Neill, Vice President If the series advocates anything, it is that the journey is worth making for Public Affairs Television what each of us might learn about this remarkable union of mind, body and Patricia Moore Harbour, Ed.D., President The Center for Quality Education spirit that is the human being.
