Dear Community,

 

To those in the Northern Hemisphere:

We are just past the Spring Solstice and the days are extending and light continues to return to our hemisphere.

 

To those in the Southern Hemisphere:

We are just past the Fall Solstice, entering a time of harvest.

 

May the promise of this ever flowing light and change of seasons upon the Earth fill each of you with hope and blessings.

 

Our Intention:

Please join our Board of Directors and Staff in our daily peace and healing meditation (please see link below).

 

And...

May you be at peace. May you be well. May you be whole. May we be at peace. May we be well. May we be whole.

 

In light,

Healing Touch Day 2021

Healing Touch Day! 
 
This Healing Touch Day marks the 25th anniversary of our organization. Since its founding in 1996 as Healing Touch International, Healing Beyond Borders has supported the education, certification, and professional development of students, practitioners, and instructors of Healing Touch, guided by our Core Values: Integrity, Heart Centeredness, Respect of Self and Others, Self-Care, Service, Community, and Unconditional Love.
 
Our theme for 2021 is Illuminating a Path of Healing. This theme speaks to our legacy and our future. As we step into the next 25 years, we ride the momentum we have sustained during this time, reflecting on where we have been and where we are going. The path we have walked and the path we are walking.
 
We recently received a generous gift of $5,000 from Anne and Larry Day to support digital media and outreach to help us spread healing light worldwide in new and exciting ways. Anne and Larry have agreed that we may use their gift as the basis for a challenge grant to raise matching funds to support our push for digital media and outreach. What better way to celebrate our 25th year and Healing Touch Day! 
 
I hope you will join me in donating to Healing Beyond Borders and be part of this challenge grant. Our goal is to match (or exceed) Anne and Larry’s gift by May 1, 2021. And it can be as simple as a $25 donation. 
 
Being part of this challenge grant is one way in which you can help us spread the word about the work for which we all have a passion. Digital media and outreach have only become more essential during the pandemic. We want to harness the momentum we have gained over the past 25 years and especially since our virtual conference in October 2020. 
 
Help us reach our goal and sustain the momentum today! 
  •  Give. Support Healing Beyond Borders in its mission to spread healing and light worldwide through the heart-centered practice and teaching of Healing Touch. Visit our website to learn more about how you can give to Healing Beyond Borders and be part of the challenge grant.
  • Become a member. Joining Healing Beyond Borders offers you a professional affiliation with and connection to members around the world. We invite you to grow and expand with us!

Gratitude: The Short Film by Louie Schwartzberg
Gratitude: The Short Film by Louie Schwartzberg
 
In this time of challenge, when so many are suffering throughout the world, 
we take time today to express our deep gratitude and love.

We are grateful for those who are working to create healing in this world. 

We are grateful for those who risk their own lives to save the lives of others: the health care workers, the fire fighters, the first responders, the civil servants. 

We are grateful for the light carriers, the intention holders, the peace makers. 

We are grateful for the truth speakers. 

We are grateful for the ones who work for justice. 

We are grateful for the teachers and the families who nurture the young. 

We are grateful for all those who place the well being of others in highest regard. 

We are grateful for this impossibly beautiful planet and home. 

We are grateful for this Earth's creatures and all her life forms. 
 
We are grateful for challenges that are encouraging us to grow. 

We are grateful for the love and compassion that this community imparts into the world. 

We are grateful for you.

May your heart be filled with gratitude, peace and love. 
May you radiate these qualities throughout your corners of the world, creating a blanket of calming, healing light throughout the planet.
Our Deep Gratitude, 
Healing Beyond Borders Board of Directors and Staff
 
"If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, 
it will be enough."
