We are producing a documentary film on alternative medicine and healing, focusing on zero point energy, new science and shamanism. If you have had an experience of healing through non-western medicine, we would like to hear your story and possibly tell it in our film.

Please send us the following information: your name, age and general area of residence, the story of your experience of healing through alternative medicine and why your story would be an excellent fit for our project.

Please reply to j.ferrera33@gmail.com

You have gifted your readers with wonderful observations and reflections in this fieldwork. You model the very subject you study, through storytelling and making connections, using the meaning of narrative memory in context.
When I studied with Richard Dorson and Charles Boilés at Indiana University in the ’70s, the whole field was trying to achieve the respect of the wider academic community by extolling the benefits of objectivity. It is good to know someone is dealing with the creative tension between personal involvement and distance in such an honest manner. Thank you for you article and may the stories in your heart find their way to wherever it is they want to go.
