| Imagine in the midst of a hectic day being able to retreat to a quiet place for a few minutes of nurturing words from healing leaders such as Jean Watson, Rachel Naomi Remen, Christina Puchalski, Desmond Tutu, Christiane Northrup, Angeles Arrien, Joan Borysenko, Naomi Judd, Tom Lant, Jeremy Geffen, or Ira Byock. This CD makes that vision a reality with a collection of short reflective messages, spoken against the backdrop of restful music. Care for the Journey is a wonderful distillation of the teachings of these special individuals that can help healthcare workers reconnect with their reason for entering this field. |

Care for the Journey is a wonderful compilation of music with inspiring and insightful messages for the practicing health care professional. It acknowledges the stresses under which we work and takes us a step back to the real meaning of healing and caring, which includes the emotional and spiritual dimensions of both patient and practitioner; it accepts death as the natural end of life.
This CD would be a useful resource for any health care practitioner, but I think it will be particularly valuable for anybody who works in palliative care. If you are feeling in any way stressed, or wondering about the meaning and value of your work, you need to listen to Care for the Journey. Highly recommended. |

Care for the Journey is a powerful reminder that healthcare is a mission, not just a business, and that the healing professions are a calling, not just a job. On every single track, the message and the music sent a tingle up my spine. It’s a message that’s never been more important than it is today. This is a masterwork, and a fitting gift for anyone who is privileged to have the title of caregiver. |
