The true nature of our minds is enlightened and peaceful as the depth of the ocean is calm and clear but when we mentally grasp and emotionally cling to our wants and worries with all our energy we lose our own enlightened freedom and healing power only to gain stress and exhaustion suffering and overexcitement like the turbulent waves rolling on the surface of the ocean our minds possess the power to heal pain and stress and to blossom into peace and joy by loosening the clinging attitudes that buddhists call grasping at self if we apply the minds healing power we can heal not only our mental and emotional afflictions but physical problems also this book is an invitation to awaken the healing power of mind through inspiring images and sounds mindful movements positive perceptions soothing feelings trusting confidence and the realization of openness the healing principle on which these exercises are based is the universal nature and omnipresent power envisioned in mahayana buddhism yet for healing we dont have to be believers in any particular faith we can heal body and mind simply by being what we truly are and by allowing our own natural healing qualities to manifest: a peaceful and open mind a loving and positive attitude and warm joyful energy in a state of balance and harmony
