At some point in our lives, we all suffer from illnesses of the body or the mind and we face tests and difficulties. This collection highlights resources dedicated to physical and spiritual health and well-being, healing, resilience and overcoming challenges.
Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.
In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in Rochester, USA with Cynthia Norris who shares “Thy Name Is My Healing” based on the Writings of Baha’u’llah.
This song was filmed and recorded in Rochester, USA in February 2024.
