"Healing isn't something you have to seek on the outside - Everything with a soul can naturally achieve it. All the elements necessary for healing are present within you. Sometimes, the soul is uplifted to vibrate on a higher frequency—by beauty, inspiration, awe, insight, letting go, shifting, releasing and a profound knowing touch. It's through the immense inner power of our own creation that the journey of healing begins" @ Dorine Siccama
