Today we’re going to be talking about healing and how to create and maintain balance in our lives so we can live joyfully.  Special guests Annette and Mark Anderson from "Trail Angels" teach a course called "From Broken to Beautiful" using the example of the Japanese art of  kintsugi (also known as kintsukuroi) where they repair broken pottery using lacquer dusted with powdered gold so that the scars actually make the pottery stronger and more interesting, beautiful, and valuable than it was before.  This is a metaphor that we can heal from our wounds to become even stronger and better than we were before.  Mark and Annette understand the process of healing from wounds from their devastating experience of losing  a son from a brain tumor.   They've followed the cairns from others who had previously trod this path of grief and loss, and now they've created new cairns for others who follow behind.
