Jack Gurman, MA, BCNHC, LEHP

I am a meditator and healer with over thirty years of experience helping friends, family, and clients in a wide range of modalities. Primarily, I have studied, practiced and taught mindfulness meditation, herbalism, nutrition, energetic healing modalities, and have earned degrees in traditional therapy (art therapy, psychodynamic therapies).

During thirty years of hundreds of group, solo, formal and informal meditation retreats, interviews, and studying with many teachers from different and complementary schools of meditation practice (Zen/Chogye, Soto, Rinzai, Theravada, Vajrayana/Tibetan Buddhist, Taoist, Vedanta, Jewish, Christian, Insight/Vipassana/Mindfulness), I have had the unique opportunity to become intimate within the relationship that we call healing.

When encountering illness and medicine, the body and the mind, energy and substance, I have found that there is a unique expression of these worlds as subject and object and as no subject and no object. In other words, I have found that my unique (and seeming extreme) sensitivity to energies, minds, thoughts etc… that were once a hindrance to myself and interacting, are now my strength in that I understand that my body is “mine” only as a convention.

In the more accurate sense that we are all interconnected beings, souls, with bodies and minds, I have found that over the years my entire body and mind are here simply to sense and understand how to help others learn and realize how they too can heal. With meticulous attention to the subtleties of our lives we can only heal when we understand what our life force is, where it comes from and what toxicity is and where it comes from.

I cannot heal you but I can help you learn how you can heal yourself, in similar ways that I have. By sharing our stories of healing we create and breathe life into a new story of healing that we co create together. Whether you call this phenomena God, or love, light, vibration, frequency, this healing is both completely mysterious and when understood as truth can be expressed in water, microsomal medicine, good food, fasting, sound healing and really in any way that we find ourselves aligned with what is true, with what simply is.

So I invite you to invite me to share our stories of healing and continue our healing journey while we are alive, one word, one step, one breath at a time.
