Don't blame, forgive, All healing is self-healing
The process of self-healing is the privilege of every being. Self-healing is not a miracle, nor is self-healing a dramatization of the personality as though you could do something superior. Self-healing is a genuine process of the relationship between the physical and the infinite power of the soul.
I do believe that healing takes place on a number of different levels and that in fact black healing can be deepened by trying to heal across as well as within.

Being able to give someone a hug from the heart, it's healing. It's healing for yourself and healing for others, and we need a lot of that.
Finding the right healing path requires all or nothing. Once you place conditions on healing, all you can achieve is conditional healing.
Few people can fail to generate a self-healing process, when they become genuinely involved in healing others.
All minds are joined. Therefore, all healing is self-healing. Our inner peace will, of itself, pass to others once we accept it for ourselves.
Mental wounds not healing, who and what's to blame. I'm going off the rails on a crazy train.
Remember, as each man and woman is a microcosm reflecting the larger natural world, so healing of the self is also a healing for the world. As above, so below.
