My Book
I’m thrilled to announce the release of my book, “Man’s Search for Healing – A logotherapy approach to healing through meaning” Here is the blurb about the book:
Man's Search for Healing
“Man’s Search for Healing” explores the mind, body and soul’s dynamic relationship and the role that meaning plays in connecting them. It will enhance the journey to wellness of anyone struggling with illnesses or challenges in life while gaining tools to become an active participant in their own healing. It is also geared for medical clinicians and alternative health practitioners who are searching for solutions to empower patients/clients beyond the scope of what medicine can offer. This book teaches about the body’s innate ability to heal itself and will help you discover what conditions are necessary to allow healing to take place. Through scientific research, examples and case studies, the book looks at Logotherapy’s approach (mind) to healing through meaning and the exploration of healing from trauma, or life’s challenges through Somatic Experiencing (body), and what happens when we bring these together. Some topics that are discussed are the mind body connection, the effect of unfinished business on the body, the difference between being healed and being cured, what illness is, forgiveness, post traumatic growth and more.”

Client Testimonials
“Healing the worlds – one page at a time!”
“Dear Devorah, I wanted to say how I enjoyed your book. Thank you for your magical book. It is awesome, this is a journey I have been on for my whole life and related to your every step of the way. As always when reading a book and working with that book one learns something new each and every time. Thank you!”
“Devorah brings several examples from clients, as well as sharing her own very personal experience brought to life her own healing process, very vividly. Overcoming life’s challenges becomes much more than just theory. One can experience through her sharing how actively every part of her mind, body and soul faced the challenge. Being incapacitated and vulnerable and coming through the process graciously through using the tools and questions outlined, is the greatest proof that the process works and that in fact complete healing is possible or on all levels of one’s being. Highly recommended for a deeper look at oneself, as well as anyone working in the healing arts.”
“Devorah, Mazeltov on bringing this book to life. There are so many Gems of Wisdom in it’s pages. Victor Frankl must be so proud of you for keeping his message alive and for continuing to add your own thoughts, experiences and feelings .
May this be the beginning of more books , seminars , Youtubes, Ted Talks, still to to come.
Onwards 🎉in peace & healing.
Love, Sue Jackson”
Dr MA Kanda, “The contribution of Devorah Kur through this current book is three fold. First, Devorah has managed to connect body, mind and spirit. Secondly, she has succeeded in relating cure to healing. And finally, she eloquently links logotheory to logopractice in the healthcare
system. Such contributions are part of the humanising and restoration process of our ailing healthcare system. This book is an inspiring resource for anyone working in or studying any healthcare profession who desires to treat their clients as whole beings, integrating body, mind and soul. It also provides a source of courage and hope for caregivers and those afflicted by
different forms of suffering resulting from different diseases and life challenges. Finally, this book helps to increase our awareness of the defiant power of human spirit as presented by Viktor Frankl. Devorah Kur invites us with gentle faith to apply this defiant power of our spirit in our lives.
“Was a great read. Particularly interesting and relevant to me was the section on Forgiveness.
I am dealing with that very issue right now with a family member. Was very helpful.”
Dr Teria Shantall, “Explorative in nature, this book serves to provoke our own intuitive grasp of the fundamental and central role of meaning in our lives. How we need body to meet soul; to
have unconditional faith in the unconditional meaningfulness of life; to be whole, that is, to
love life with all of our beings!”
