heal
Make whole again
To heal is to restore to health or wholeness.
Wounds heal, sometimes leaving scars.
Doctors heal patients, though time heals most injuries on its own.
The word extends naturally to emotional and social repair: Time heals all wounds, healing a rift between friends.
A healer is one who heals, whether physician, shaman, or supportive presence.
