HEALING SPACE

This page does not pertain specifically to lymphedema. Rather it presents the broader experience of the whole person discovering and creating an authentic life. This may occur in response to a traumatic life event or as a result of feeling that something is missing. Healing can be seen as a return to wholeness, as a reuniting of the various aspects of oneself, as a reconnection to the wider world.

Healing Space is a multi-modality healing project that explores new models in relationship between self, others and society. This project has been co-created by David Rankine and Sharon Langfield. The models presented are inspired by real-world experiences in health care, healing, workshops, teaching and performance situations. The principles of sacred geometry are often used to graphically demonstrate these models which can be seen in "Where the Sky Touches the Earth".

The Healing Space project currently includes a CD, workshops and an upcoming book. These are described below.

THE HEALING SPACE CD

The Healing Space CD is the latest offering by David Rankine in a series of recordings for meditation and healing.

HEALING SPACE
Adventures in a Tensegrous Universe

by David Rankine & Sharon Langfield

"Healing Space: Adventures in a Tensegrous Universe", the upcoming book explores new models of relationship between self, other and society. These new models create space for the authentic self to flourish, to be inspired by and to contribute to the wider world.

The natural world holds within it, the models needed to inform human relationships -- relationships to self, other, society and nature. By aligning ourselves with our true nature, that of dynamic, creative beings, we align ourselves with the true nature and reality of the universe. This universe is in a constant motion and creation and is tensegrous by nature. The word tensegrous as created by architect Buckminster Fuller refers to an interconnected, self-supporting and structurally dynamic system that utilizes the least amount of energy and matter for the greatest strength. Informed by this dynamic and holistic model of interconnectedness, human beings are capable of limitless co-ceation with self, others and the universe. This co-creation of reality reflects our true nature as creators and allows us to access our natural ability to be whole and healthy people.

Release date: Fall 2010
