People of all ages and backgrounds love making and receiving Healing Boxes®. Patients can make them right from their hospital bed, and can give them to whomever they wish in a spirit of love. In so doing, the joy they bring is deeply healing.
In the words of Presidential Medal of Freedom winner, Dr. Karl Menniger: “Love cures people – both the ones who give it and the ones who receive it.”
