Welcome to the 200th edition of the Carnival of Healing. The carnival is a weekly round-up of personal blog posts on the topics of holistic health, wellness, spirituality, and self empowerment. It is such an honor to host the 200th carnival.

Thank you to those who have submitted blogs to explore. I had a great time exploring new blogs, especially on the topics I am passionate about.

Purposeful Health and Healing is about living consciously in body, mind and spirit. So, without further ado, on with the carnival!

A dear friend is beginning her studies to become a teacher. She shared the story of her mentor doing a home visit of a four-year-old child.
