I could write a book about the healing experiences I have had through Christian Science. The testimony I would like to relate occurred in my recent years of studying at university.

At the completion of my drama degree, I had three months holidays before commencing a teaching degree the next year. After the intensity of my studies, I felt at a with all this free time and began to wonder what I would do on my holidays. I ran around, looking for things to do and finally joined a gymnasium. As my time at the gym increased, my sense of who I really was decreased. I started to look at myself in purely material terms.

Although many people commented on how "good" I was looking, I actually felt exhausted and trapped in this limited concept of what was supposed to be my identity. I was never still or at peace, and deep down I knew that all the running around in my thought really had to stop.
