How to play Healing Man/Healing Woman

The Brief Story Behind the Creation of the Healing Man/Healing Woman Game

While studying martial arts years ago, the game's creator, Antonia "Dr. M" Martinez, Ph.D. noticed that many women struggled with both the idea and the act of physically or verbally protecting themselves and their space. She couldn't help but wonder if this was just one of many psycho-spiritual remnants of the long-held wounded image of women as the "weaker sex." Did this wound still exist in the collective consciousness? What other wounds existed in the consciousness and identity of both men and women? How were they hurting us and holding us back? And how could we deconstruct our unhealthy self-concepts and transform them into a more evolved awareness and existence without scaring the hell out of ourselves before we even got started?  What would it take to stop repeating the same old histories and take our minds, conversations, and choices someplace new with as little resistance as possible? The Healing Man/Healing Woman game was born.
