By Cyndi Dale Paperback: 500 pages Sounds True, Incorporated (February 1, 2009)
All healers are "energetic" healers, whether they know it or not. Because every health issue has a physical and an energetic component, even a
simple physical treatment like bandaging a cut also impacts the body's spiritual, mental, and emotional welfare. The Subtle Body is a comprehensive
encyclopedia devoted to the critical world of our invisible anatomy, where so much of healing actually occurs. Compiled by intuitive healer and
scholar Cyndi Dale, this 500-page full color illustrated reference book covers: * What is the "subtle body"? New scientific understanding of our
quantum-state existence and the unseen fields that determine our physical condition * True integrative care: how combining Eastern energetic
modalities with Western scientific rigor yields optimum results * The meridians, fields, and chakras: detailed information and diagrams about
the role of these energetic structures in our overall health * Energy-based therapy principles from the world's healing traditions--
including Ayurveda, Qigong, Reiki, Quabalah, and many more. For professionals who want to make the leap from being good healers to great
ones, one thing is clear: we need to care for every facet of our well-being. With The Subtle Body, practitioners and patients alike now
have an unprecedented resource for understanding the physical, energetic, and spiritual elements of human health--for an informed, complete
approach to healing
By Mackie D’Arge Hardcover: 320 pages Publisher: Bloomsbury USA Children's Books (March 3, 2009) Lifting the Sky, by Mackie D'arge, is a young adult novel that’s time has come. It is a book about using intention, seeing “living lights” both around people and on the earth, and following one’s dream. Mackie D’arge has skillfully woven a story about finding one’s home with well drawn characters, vivid environmental scenes, and a fast moving tale. Children have already been touched by Mackie’s text; a young girl wrote to the author asking if anyone could heal animals with their hands because her dog was sick. She and her sister have read the novel many times and asked Mackie when the next story would be written.
Mackie D’arge, an artist with the gift of higher sense perception, has created a tale set in the land she loves. The book has already won the Wyoming State Historical Fiction Award and is a listed children’s selection in December’s Science of the Mind magazine.
This book provides a new template for the second half of life, one that it is bursting with energy, health, power, creativity and new beginnings.
Rather than settling for less than our dreams, it fills us with the expectation that this period is our second chance to do, and to be, all the
things we've ever dreamed of-and more!This is the first book to apply the breakthrough insights of Energy Psychology to aging. Energy Psychology
is an exciting new healing method that changes the body's electromagnetic energy fields to produce immediate psychological shifts and physical
well-being. It involves a simple set of breathing and touching exercises, and can be learned quickly by anyone. After just a few minutes of
applying these methods, you can amaze yourself with how much better you feel!Energy Psychology pioneer Dorothea Hover-Kramer explains its basic
principles in ways that are easy to understand. She shows how energy methods can liberate us from many of the typical problems of aging, such
as low energy and reduced motivation.
Nancy Ann Battilega, Healing Touch Certified Practitioner (HTCP):This is the story of my journey to health and wholeness after a dianosis of breast cancer, and the events in my life that prepared me to choose this particular path of healing. I know that each individual is unique and each illness is unique to that individual. There is no one size fits all when it comes to cancer or any other illness. Nevertheless, I write in the hope that others, who find themselves in circumstances similar to mine, will be inspired to move through their journeys free from fear, taking all the time necessary to discover what their bodies need in order to heal. This story may stretch your imagination, but I assure you every word is as true as I can tell it. We each have a unique voice. I have attempted to tell a story which conveys the truth of my journey in a way that others might say, She is telling my story.
