Healing/Therapeutic Wheels: Child Recovering in Hospital • Surgeon's Wait Room • Yoga Studio Wheels Chaplain Donna Vande Kieft writes: "We have incorporated one of Chris Moench's beautiful prayer wheels into a ritual of remembrance and blessing at Providence Hospice & Homecare of Snohomish County. The prayer wheel sits atop a special cabinet in our lobby along with a vase of colored stones that represent the losses staff and volunteers encounter in their work with patients, families and in their own personal lives. Staff and volunteers are invited to jot down their concerns, joys, hopes, dreams, disappointments, blessings, etc. and drop their note into the prayer wheel. The wheel is often spinning when we walk through our lobby or get off the elevator, reminding us that there is a sense of the divine and the holy in the midst of our lives and our work. We are blessed to have the prayer wheel in our work environment. It offers a sense of healing and hope to us all. This weekend the wheel is going to Camp Erin where it will be used in ritual to help heal the grief experienced by children and teens that have lost someone significant. We know they will be both intrigued and blessed by the presence of the wheel and what it represents."
