title: The summit on healing: honoring diversity, finding common ground.
abstract: The issue of languaging became an important point of discussion because the lack of definitions makes it difficult to objectively explore phenomena that occur during healing work. There were many more questions raised than answered. The opportunity to share in this dialogue created an increased awareness of and respect for the complexities of this work and the healers that devote their lives to it.
