Submission Forms

Contact Information

By Phylameana lila Desy, About.com

Your inquiries and requests forwarded to me via forms get automatically filed into assigned folders by category. This system not only saves me the trouble of sorting hundreds of emails manually, but will likely save your emails from being falsely dumped into a SPAM folder. For your convenience (and mine too) a list of all my available forms and submission guidelines are linked to from this page.

1. Share a Photo

(c)photos.com
I am currently accepting photo submissions from readers to be published in two galleries.
  • The Sacred Space Gallery is a showplace of photographs shared by readers of their favorite "sacred spaces."
    Submit Your Sacred Space Photos

  • Tribute to Nurturing Dads Photo Gallery is a showplace of photographs of fathers with their child/children. Did your father play a significant role in your life that helped you become a well-grounded person or influenced your positive outlook on life? In his honor, share a brief testimonial statement along with a treasured photo of your father, husband, or co-parent you'd like to see included in the gallery.
    Submit Your Nurturing Dad Photos

2. Obtaining Reprint Permissions

I feel honored whenever someone asks permission to reprint one of my articles. I own the copyright on my written works. However, through my contract as a content provider, About.com retains licensed use of all published works that appear on the Guide site. The content on the About.com Holistic Healing site may not be reproduced without permission being secured through the New York Times offices.
There are some exceptions - Please read: May I Copy Materials from this Web Site?

3. Announce Upcoming Healing Classes and Workshops

Event listings are added once a month to the Healing Calendar. Your event submission must be received by the 24th of the month prior to the date of your event.
Note: Submission does not guarantee a listing in the - entries are personally reviewed and will be added at my discretion.

4. Be Featured as a Guest Writer

If you are a professional healer who wants to help educate our readers with your expertise, or someone who feels your personal story will help others along their healing journeys consider becoming a contributor to this site.

5. Carnival of Healing

Carnival of Healing
Carnival of Healing is seeking blog posts that feature healing articles, empowerment stories, innovative healing ideas, remedy tips, announcements of newsy health topics, etc. What are your opinions? What are you writing about in your blogs about wellness, complementary medicine, holistic healing, spirituality, and healthy lifestyles?

6. Share a Reader Tip

Have you recently read a book on the general subject of body-mind-spirit, alternative medicine, spiritual awakenings, empowerment or one that addresses wellness issues, etc.? Share with our community what your opinions about how it influenced you or inspired you by submitting your review of it.
Note to Authors: Please don't send in reviews of your own book (I don't publish press releases either). Any self-promotional book reviews received directly from authors will not get published. I'm intereset in reader opinions, not author musings. Thanks!

7. Holistic Healer Profile Requests

The Healer Profiles featured on at About.com Holistic Healing are brief introduction pages. The profile serves as a gateway to a healer's personal Web site. This is a very popular service. I get many requests, more than I could have ever imagined when I first began profiling holistic healers. Although there is no fee required to have your profile featured, there are a few conditions that have to be met. Please review the requirements before applying. And, keep in mind that it may be several weeks before I am able to review your site for consideration.

8. Request Your Wellness Center to be Featured

Much like the Holistic Healer Profiles I also maintain a database of Wellness Center Profiles. Profiles from both healers and wellness clinics are categorized by location to help form client/healer relationships. Not all applications are accepted, frankly, I'm picky and busy too. So, please be patient. It may be several weeks before I am able to review your site for consideration.
