The Integrative Medicine Center at Duke University has published an interesting article by Larry Burk on the healing power of storytelling. Here is a clip from the article:
"In her best selling book, "Kitchen Table Wisdom: Stories that Heal," pediatrician Rachel Naomi Remen draws her material from twenty years of working with cancer patients, her own personal struggles with a chronic disease, and the wisdom of her grandfather, a rabbi who shared spiritual lessons with her around the kitchen table during her childhood. Dr. Remen emphasizes the healing power of storytelling in her work as medical director of the Commonweal Cancer Help Program. She also shares these insights with the medical students that she teaches at the University of California at San Francisco."
