Biogenealogy is a comprehensive new vision of health that takes the mind-body connection one step further by identifying and consciously addressing the emotional shocks that create physical disorders. Each symptom of an illness precisely indicates its emotional origin. Thus, far from being an enemy, the physical symptom is actually a valuable ally that provides the key to the cure of the physical

In NUMEROLOGY FOR HEALING, Michael Brill combines numerology with psychology, quantum physics and the concepts of gematria (the numerology of the Hebrew Language) and reincarnation to create a unique approach to healing emotional and physical problems based on life challenges and karmic lessons. Humans suffer from a profound sense of abandonment when the soul is decanted from the Universal Oneness

The Druids used the ancient Ogham Tree Alphabet to work magic and honour the dead, surrounding each letter with medicinal and spiritual lore. Poets and bards created a secret sign language to describe the letters, each of which is named for a tree or a plant. For centuries this language was transmitted only orally in order to protect its secrets. Combining her extensive herbal knowledge and keen p

Banned after promising research in the 1940s, '50s and '60s, the use of psychedelics as therapeutic catalysts is now being rediscovered at prestigious medical schools, such as Harvard, Johns Hopkins, NYU and UCLA. Through clinical trials to assess their use, entheogens have been found to ease anxiety in the dying, interrupt the hold of addictive drugs, cure post-traumatic stress disorder and treat

Reiki practitioners and teachers recognise Reiki as a gentle and powerful healing method. The path to becoming a Reiki practitioner, however, is more than just a commitment to energy healing. It is also a commitment to personal growth. In REIKI FOR THE HEART AND SOUL, Amy Rowland details how reflection on the five core Reiki principles presented in both the Western and Japanese traditions - do not

The great teacher Bodhidharma is credited with the creation of Shaolin Temple qi gong and kung fu in the 6th century CE. Motivated by the terrible physical condition of the monks who spent all their time meditating or copying scrolls, his two-part system promoted physical as well as spiritual fitness and became the basis for all the martial and meditative arts taught in the Shaolin Temple. These a

One of the chief tools in the traditional Chinese doctor's toolbox is an understanding of the circadian rhythms that govern all the organ systems of the body. In addition to facilitating early and accurate diagnosis, this “organ clock” lets the practitioner apply therapies to the organ's meridians when they are at their peak functioning point, thereby eliciting the greatest benefit. In this book a

Taoists say that we must learn to observe with the mind and think with the heart. In the West we get caught up in the “monkey mind” of our ego. We think we can control our individual destinies by swimming upstream against the current, but we are mistaken. When we learn to quiet the monkey mind with meditation practices, we are able to go beyond the linear thinking of the upper brain and connect to

The fast-paced tempo of modern life has eroded many of the traditional support systems used by our ancestors for aid in a crisis. Individuals are often left feeling powerless in such highly stressful situations as divorce, moving, generation-gap issues, losing one's job and the death of a loved one. In BACH FLOWERS FOR CRISIS CARE, Mechthild Scheffer examines 50 common life crises and how the 38 B

Western science now recognises the three “minds” associated with the three tan tiens of Taoism: the observing mind centred in the brain, the conscious mind centred in the heart and the mind of awareness centred in the lower abdomen. By unifying the three minds - what in Chinese is called Yi - we can transform the energy around us into positive loving energy and be empowered to manifest our goals a

An easy-to-learn form of energy medicine, Reiki is becoming commonplace in such conventional settings as hospitals, hospices and psychotherapy practices because it relaxes, relieves stress, reduces and eliminates pain, ac

What we hear, and how we process it, has a far greater impact on our daily living than we realise. From the womb to the moment we die we are surrounded by sound and what we hear can either energise or deplete our nervous systems. It is no exaggeration to say that what goes into our ears can harm us or heal us.Joshua Leeds - a pioneer in the application of music for health, learning and productivit

Recognised for its support of self-healing and overall well-being, Reiki is now used in hospitals throughout the world. Commonly viewed as a Japanese healing art, the practice of Reiki originated with the Chen Yen masters of China, who called it Tao Te Qi. Transmitted to Idris Lahore by his grandfather, a direct student of Master Huang Zhen Hui, Reiki Tao Te Qi offers students of Reiki a deeper un

The most important development in homoeopathy since its discovery in the late 18th century by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, the Sensation Method of diagnosis developed by Dr. Rajan Sankaran explains that our experience and perceptions of life's stresses are shaped by an inner pattern, or “song,” connected to one of the three kingdoms in nature - animal, plant or mineral. Revealing itself as a constant und

As both ancient spiritual masters and modern quantum physicists acknowledge, the universe is vibration. Through sound and its ability to communicate with our chakras and subtle body, we can tap into the vibration of the universe for greater harmony and stronger relationships; physical, emotional and spiritual healing, expanded consciousness and planetary oneness.
