What is Global Healing?Encouraging education and awareness of the significant issues surrounding all aspects of healing, including the protection, revitalization and balance of ourselves and Planet Earth. By awakening others to global issues (such as preserving ancient wisdom, protecting natural resources, and embracing cultural wisdom and knowledge) we hope that listeners will develop a deeper appreciation and respect for others, and the planet. Furthermore, we hope that there will emerge more conscious decisions and responsibility for our Earth and its many life forms. We hope that this will unite others and help them to realize that we truly do live in a Global Village.
We are now face-to-face with the reality that our planet's resources, which we once thought to be limitless, are becoming noticeably endangered, scarce and extinct. More than ever, it is imperative that we have sustainable solutions. Fortunately, many visionaries have answered the call, and are passionately devoted to making a difference.
Global Healing will give voice to such healing visionaries. These visionaries are Global Healers. They are protectors of Planet Earth... protectors of Life. They are ones who have collected and preserved ancient wisdom, truths and teachings. They are spiritual leaders, naturalists, herbalists, conservationists, integrative medical practitioners, sustainability practitioners, etc. Each one will be invited to share his or her passion towards the healing of Planet Earth, others, and all living things.
From this information, it is our hope that our listeners will glean an awareness of ways to begin and implement techniques that will support this global village, and accelerate the Global Healing.
The Benefit of Global Healing
As members of this Global Village, we must be accountable and conscious of how we are living in relationship to Earth, to others and to our environment. Just as the influx of information about the reality of global warming is forcing the regulation of fossil fuels and demands for alternative fuel, we also hope that the information we will provide will have such impact. For example, we will discuss how the destruction of the rainforests and the loss of tribal wisdom and knowledge is also a destruction and loss of medical treatments and cures, in addition to contributing to global warming, etc. Furthermore, we hope that it will be very apparent to our listeners that every show topic that we discuss directly relates to them. It is all interconnected. |

Amy Greeson, Registered Pharmacist I am constantly amazed at the interconnectedness of all life; the vital roles that plants, animals, and indigenous cultures have in the world of medicine and healing; and the incredible value of tribal/cultural wisdom and knowledge. Recently, I witnessed this yet again as I trekked to the Amazon rainforest in Ecuador. Even though this was my eighth trip to a rainforest, it was perhaps the one with the most awakening. The Amazon is always spectacular, opening not only my eyes, my mind, and my heart, but also encouraging this reconnection with all of life . . . and life itself. |

Recently I trekked with seven others along the Amazon River (in Peru, South America) to the remote village of Jaldar. The small community was nestled in the dense jungle and consisted of eight families. For the first time this community had permitted a group of “outsiders” to dwell with them – primarily because we were accompanied by their highly respected Shaman (medicine man) and Shamana (medicine woman). Our group was a diverse group of health practitioners – physicians, pharmacists, nurses. The individuals came from the West Coast, Hawaii, Barcelona Spain, and (myself) North Carolina. |

Pharmacist wants to use herbs to help elevate level of healing By: Erica Kinnaird, STAFF WRITER (High Point Enterprise)  For some people, going the extra mile for their job is a task, but for Amy Greeson, it was the beginning of an adventure.
Greeson, a pharmacist at the Medicine Shoppe in Thomasville, went more than an extra mile - she went all the way to the rainforests of Belize, in Central America, to learn more about herbal medicine. |

by Amy Greeson  While exploring in the Galapagos Islands, I spent some time at the Charles Darwin Observatory. I have always been fascinated with this “survival of the fittest” environment with its simplicity and the peace, harmony and balance that exist so naturally. Perhaps my intrigue could be summarized by the powerful words of Charles Darwin himself (1835): “It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the most responsive to change.” For isn't this the same wisdom that has been spoken by many enlightened souls throughout the time of man? And isn't this responsiveness to change what we are witnessing now with health and healing? There has been, and continues to be, a dramatic shift as we explore, experiment, and incorporate a wide variety of healing practices. And although survival is one outcome of such measures, perhaps even more powerful may be the heightened quality of life.
