may wish to share with people who ask for information. Although BBSH students do not yet have healing practices, they
should feel free to speak about the School and the work in general in interviews or presentations to local and nationwide
press or media. Relating one’s personal experience is an effective way to communicate about the Brennan Healing
Science skills and about the School itself.
1. If a student or graduate would like to share about the School or answer questions about the School, the books, or the
work, we ask that you follow these guidelines:
• Identify yourself as either a student or graduate of BBSH.
• Inform your audience that you are in a position to share your personal experience of the School, the work, and the
healing process as you know it.
• Please inform people that you are not an official representative of the School, have not been trained to teach the
work, and cannot act as an authority regarding questions they may have concerning the books or the School material.
If a student or graduate plans to speak about the School and Brennan Healing Science in their community (perhaps
in a presentation to a community group, through a newspaper interview or article, or on a local TV program), you
may contact the School office to discuss your plans. The School office will send you an information packet with
facts and handouts about the School, which you may use in your talk to the public.
B.
Additional Speaking Opportunities for BBSH Graduates Who Are Brennan
Healing Science Practitioners
It is also the intention of the School to support and facilitate the development of private practices of the Brennan Healing
Science Practitioners who are the conduits of this healing work to the world at large. Therefore, it is desirable, appropriate,
and encouraged for graduates to inform the public about BBSH, Brennan Healing Science, and the existence of Brennan
Healing Science Practitioners in the following way:
1. In free, public introductory programs in which the graduate talks about Brennan Healing Science and BBSH in addition
to his/her personal practice. It is also appropriate in this program for the graduate to demonstrate (not teach) a healing
technique(s) for the purpose of promoting the School, the work, and/or in order to build his/her healing practice.
C.
What BBSH Qualifies Its Graduates to Do
It is the intention of the founder and managing body of BBSH that the healing techniques, exercises, and methods developed
by BBSH be made available for healing in the world by BBSH graduates in the following contexts:
1. Use with a client during a professional healing period, including showing verbally or through demonstrations selfcare skills necessary or important to the client’s healing.
2. Use for informal verbal sharing with friends or family members for the purposes of healing, communication, and
improving relationships. (In such informal sharing no financial exchange would be involved.)
3. If qualified through and certified by BBSH, within the context of offering HOL (Hands of Light) weekend workshops.
II.
RESTRICTIONS ON SHARING PARTICULAR ASPECTS OF THE BRENNAN HEALING SCIENCE WORK
AND CURRICULUM
This policy is also to ensure that the healing techniques, exercises, materials, and terms are utilized appropriately, that is, in
ways that enhance their integrity, authority, power, and effectiveness. By ensuring the appropriate use of this body of information
we have created a program that can be accepted by our society as a bona fide program of quality and competence in the
professional practice of Brennan Healing Science and thereby to legitimize hands-on healing in our time.
To this end we have designed the following restrictions to the use of School information and ask that students and graduates
observe the following guidelines for using and sharing this work:
A.
Self-Promotion and Advertising
1. Unless certified by BBSH as an HOL workshop leader, students and graduates of BBSH may not advertise or present
themselves in any way that implies that they are a branch or authorized representative of BBSH.
2. Unless certified by BBSH as an HOL workshop leader or a current faculty member, students and graduates of BBSH
may not advertise or represent themselves as being certified by BBSH to teach.
