Wellness House is pleased to host breast cancer survivor Pat Greer on Saturday, January 24, 2015 from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. for a special book signing. Dr. Greer, MA, PhD, psychotherapist and Jungian analyst, will read from her book Breast Cancer: A Soul Journey and share her personal insights.

Breast cancer can be a devastating experience, but it can also be an invitation to greater self-awareness. Dr. Greer focuses on cancer as a potential teacher and uses her own illness to explore inner wisdom. She uses dreams, sandtray work, drawing, inner journeys, and poetry to access deeper layers of meaning, and shares this soul journey as a map for other women who may want to go on their own explorations of discovery.
