Overview

""We acquire the strength we have overcome."" - Ralph Waldo Emerson This is for the seekers, for those of you feeling the call to reach higher; to grow into the greatest version of yourself. It will take some courage to get there; to move through some uncomfortable truths and to shine a light on what is no longer serving you. It will require some faith; we are more than just our bodies and our minds. There is a God-force ready to assist you, if we are brave enough to take on the challenge. Perhaps the struggles you have endured thus far are the gifts to move you through the murky waters of confusion. This new-found clarity offers strength that yields a wiser, deeper, and more empowered self. There is a choice: the challenges and adversities we live through can either knock us down or can be opportunities to raise ourselves up - to evolve and expand. We transmute our experiences to bring us to new heights of understanding as we gain clarity, strength, compassion, and calm along the way. Handbook for Healing offers sixteen ways to incrementally change your life through subtle practices of creating better balance. With just a few minutes each day, you can take control of your own spiritual growth and embark on a journey that will transform your grief and loss into a celebration of life.

Author Information

Christy Young facilitates wellness retreats in Elbow Cay, a five-mile-long cay in the Abaco Islands of the Bahamas. Her offerings include private Reiki sessions and group guided meditations; she believes it is easier to disengage amidst the fresh ocean breeze and a constantly changing cloudscape above the sea. These natural elements are conducive to feelings of serenity and healing on a deeper level.In New York City, Christy paints at Chelsea Classical Studios, using live models in a classroom setting. She draws much satisfaction from the companionship and comradery she finds among the artists' community there. Christy creates her art mostly in oils, painting a variety of subjects beyond the human figure, ranging from outdoor landscapes, coastal scenes, waterfalls, trees, florals and still life. Her most important project is currently being developed in her home studio, a solo exhibition slated for a 2025 in Richmond, Virginia.While not working within the realms of Reiki, painting, or writing, Christy relishes time spent outdoors, scouting wildlife on the hiking trails of Great Falls, Maryland. She savors too, the sensation of quietly gliding over calm waters on a paddleboard, held captive by the sights and sounds under the big sky above. Christy can often be found in a gallery or museum gazing at the artwork on the walls and seeking artistic inspiration. Some of her fondest memories are of taking her three young children to the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where they would bring notecards, paper, and colored pencils to create their own works of art while studying their favorite pieces. Christy supports live music, be it in a local tavern, an intimate jazz club in the city, or an outdoor music summer venue. She thoroughly enjoys the blissful moments she finds while practicing musical pieces on her Gretsch resonator and her Martin D-18. Christy's beloved cat, named after the jazz pianist Thelonious Monk, will sometimes sit on her stereo speaker, seemingly digging the vinyl collection which plays on the turn table alongside her. She lived in Paris, France for two years and while there, nurtured a bona fide yet lethal affinity for an authentic chocolate croissant from the corner boulangerie. She adores handwritten notes and letters, and delights in books of all kinds; especially those of the old-fashioned kind with paper, and particularly a well-crafted book of poetry. Look for her collected book of poems, coming out next year. Christy inherited an appreciation for canning dilled beans from her Grandmother Olivia and finds pleasure in making a good batch of mason jars full and gifting to friends and family. Her next venture, or her ""pie in the sky"", is to expand her outdoor garden to grow additional vegetables and berry bushes. She remembers a large raspberry bush her family had for many years in the backyard growing up, and revels in the sweet memory of her mother making the most heavenly, unforgettable raspberry pie in the summertime that you've ever tasted.
