Writings by Bruce Davis Ph.D.

Pink and white flowers among green fern and leafy plants in a garden pot.
A stone fountain with a round basin filled with water, set outdoors on a sunny day. Behind it are bushes, a grass lawn, trees, and a mailbox in the background.
A cozy tabletop scene with a read book titled "A Heart of Healing," a lit candle, a mug of tea, a flower arrangement in a glass jar, and a window with a view of greenery outside.
A historic white stone church with a tall bell tower, surrounded by green trees and fields, under a partly cloudy sky.
A woman with closed eyes and a calm expression, standing outdoors with trees in the background, holding her hands over her chest in a meditative pose.

A person makes a heart shape with their hands framing the setting sun over the ocean at sunset.
“Deepest gratitude for a transformative experience in the silence & in community of stillness, love, peace, acceptance and truth.
So moved by the three of you — your authenticity, expertise, presence, car and cultivation of the qualities you teach and share.”
