The effect of integrative community therapy groups on health promotion


Conducted a few years ago by the Medical-Spirit Association of the Federal District (AME-DF), this therapeutic proposal - also known as TCI groups - has brought benefits and bonds of companionship to many families, in addition to providing well-being to its participants. In an interview with journalist Giovana Campos, doctor Maria da Penha Batista, coordinator of the ICT group in the Federal District, tells us how it came about and what the work consists of. The article is one of the highlights of this edition.

Another highlight is the interview that the writer Giseti Marques Teodoro gave to our collaborator Orson Peter Carrara. She has been spirit since 1998, she was born in the city of Sousa (PB) and currently resides in Cajamar (SP). Author of several works, she motivates the habit of reading, carrying out with this objective a weekly program on the Internet. In the interview, she tells us about her initiation in Spiritism and her work in the field of literature.

Kardec and alms, this is the title and theme of the Special by Ricardo Baesso de Oliveira, from Juiz de Fora (MG). He is a writer and also a member of the Editorial Board of our magazine, he recalls that Allan Kardec did not condemn alms, considering it as a form of material charity, and believed that refusing to help materially those who need our help, being able to do it, it is an act of extreme and cruel selfishness. The article is one of the highlights of this edition.
