Several Scary visualizations

It’s very puzzling why someone would write a book on healing and use imagery that conjures up scary pictures and feelings such as being an octopus or wrapping yourself and mummy bandages and crawling into a coffin. No thanks. Wonderful visualizations could really help but these actually make things worse.Now I need a happy safe feeling visualization to get all the over these creepy ones. Not sure what he was thinking. Finally had to shut off and delete from audible.

Too many disorder exercises

The author didn’t read the book as in the preview. They had one of these professional readers with an annoying voice who sounded robotic. I would have preferred more theory on this method and more information about creating your own visualizations - after all, I thought that was the point. Instead the bulk of the book were prescribed visualizations about various disorders. Such as, see yourself with 8 very long arms floating in the sea.

Excellent healing recommendations

This book gave me many new ideas for self healing. It's expansiveness covered enough topics to find and apply what I needed in my own experience.

saved my life

I receive many blessing by listening to this amazing book change my life forever yes

An easy read...

Well written and clearly understandable.
Try it, you’ll like it: even if you know the topic, the author both summarizes and gives good examples.

Not what I was expecting

I did not expect one boring case study after another. The exercises at the end kept this from being 1 star.

Interesting Audio book, Chapter 4 not entire

In general I have been enjoying the audio book a lot. It is an easily learned visualization technique for health accompanying allopathic treatment. Narrated well.
However, in chapter 4 during the alphabetical list of health problems, the author often says he would talk about a specific problem later in that chapter, which is not happening and I have the impression the chapter is not narrated or recorded fully as it does only cover problems from A to E. Where's the rest, F to Z?

This is the future of how to heal

I think we've almost all had glimpses of an inner power at some point in our lives. This book explains how to find and use it.
