Abstract

Life in today's society dictates that all of us need healing from time to time. Maladies and illnesses take ever higher tolls on our bodies, while work and life-related stress tax our willpower, mental health, and even our souls. The incidence of stress-related illness and fatigue is reaching almost epidemic proportions. The National Institute on Mental Health estimates that one in four Americans is affected by mental illness of some sort. That equates to over 57 million people in the United States alone (NIMH 2006).
