This series is a "journey of discovery around the world to explore a 
wondrous healing system." 

THE HEART OF HEALING is a project of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, 
a nonprofit education and research organization that supports leading 
edge research and education on consciousness, mind-body health..."

Filmed in thirteen countries on four continents, THE HEART OF HEALING 
presents the remarkable stories of ordinary people who have 
experienced extraordinary healing or recovery, learning how the mind,
emotions, spirit, and community can play vital roles in health and 
healing. Viewers will discover the richness and variety of the world's 
healing traditions and get a look at new possibilities for their own 
well-being and health.

Included below is a portion of a letter written by Jane Seymour 
plus an abbreviated program guide for each of the three viewings.

"Dear friend,

Although I play the role of a doctor on television as Dr. Quinn, 
Medicine Woman, my connection to The Heart of Healing is quite 
personal. My father was a physician who, at the end of his life, made 
extraordinary discoveries about the powers of mind and spirit in 
healing. I was deeply moved by the scripts, and am pleased to be the 
host of this wonderful six-hour exploration into some of the most
compelling mysteries of our human existence..."

    Cindy,
    
    Is the station offering a copy of the tapes for sale?  I would
    love a copy if they do.
    
    thanks,
    
    Adele

    
    Yes, they are, Adele, but unfortunately I missed the 800 number to
    call.  The set is $59.99 for all three 2-hour episodes - fairly
    reasonable compared to the PBS sets.
    
    However, I did record the 800 number for a free booklet they offered -
    it's 1-800-628-4545.  The information about the tape set probably will
    be included in that.  
    
    Cindy

    
    Great!  Thanks a bunch.
    
    Adele
    

I called the 800 number and there is an automated voice system.  It askes for
your name & address, when you finish givinig it and are silent for a moment it 
asks for your phone number after giving it and being silent for a brief moment
it then says thank you and ttells you that the booklet will be mailed to you.

It was easier than dealing with a person and much pleasanter than any automated
system I ever used before.

    My booklet arrived the very next day!  (;^)  Now that's *fast*!
    
    Truth really is that they mailed the booklet to all Institute of 
    Noetic Sciences members in advance...
    
    It's a great booklet - gives many, many references for alternative
    healing.  Highly recommended.
    
    Cindy
    
    PS. Kishiko, if you're still reading, I'll send you my extra copy.

    
    I called too, thanks for the pointer.
