Creating Healing Space: A Guide to Creating Internal and External Spaces that Promote Healing

Dr. Akhu’s spiritual understanding has grown along with her therapeutic skills. Along the journey, she has had the opportunity to provide therapy in a number of settings and create her own therapeutic space. She experiences the impact it has on her patients and on herself. It has become clear that there is a relationship between objects in physical space and spiritual space – which is less tangible but still present. Dr. Akhu’s patients have always commented on the “comforting,” “healing” and “peaceful” environment of her office. She uses these experiences, as well as relevant research, to help readers create physical environments supportive to healing – whether it be from trauma, anxiety, depression or other psychological challenges. Creating Healing Space also supports the creation of internal space for healing by teaching readers how to meditate and develop positive affirmations and rituals that support psychological healing. This book is written to guide readers on their personal healing journey and includes quick reference charts to help them find just the right elements.
