Publisher's summary

A leading mind-body researcher provides an invaluable resource of solid scientific evidence for consciousness-based healing — along with practices anyone can use.

Spontaneous remission, the placebo effect, and energy healing — these phenomena have baffled the medical community for decades. What do all these marvels tell us? “Our current models of medicine fall short of understanding the depths of our human healing potential,” says Dr. Shamini Jain. “We are on the cusp of finally becoming awake to our human healing potential. A growing number of scientists are exploring a new path — a true expansion of science joined with understandings from ancient concepts of spirituality.”

With Healing Ourselves, Dr. Jain presents a new vision of health and healing. Here, she rejects the “either-or” thinking that has placed conventional medicine at odds with so-called alternative methods — offering an integrated path based on sound scientific evidence and personal empowerment. Join her to explore:

• Biofield science — peer-reviewed research on the inseparable relationship between consciousness and healing
• The placebo and beyond — what placebo research tells us about the power of consciousness to heal ourselves, whether we choose drugs, surgery, or holistic medicine
• Evidence — what strong, published research actually says about the healing power of holistic practices such as yoga, tai chi, meditation, and energy healing
• The Healing Keys — in-depth instruction with evidence-based recommendations and ancient spiritual practices that you can integrate into your life for healing yourself

Today more than ever, we realize that we must change the way we think about health care — and our ability to heal ourselves. “The good news is there is a way forward,” teaches Dr. Jain. “The flame that lights the path burns brighter than the darkness of ignorance and suffering we have found ourselves in.” With Healing Ourselves, this inspiring teacher shares a holistic model of health that we have known in our hearts, all along, to be true.

Critic reviews

“Dr. Shamini Jain is a visionary scientist and evolutionary leader with the energy and heart of a healer. With Healing Ourselves, Dr. Jain masterfully synthesizes diverse wisdom streams, weaving together scientific discoveries, ancient knowledge, and practical keys for healing to inspire and empower us to ignite infinite healing potential for ourselves, each other, and the planet. If you want to expand your consciousness and know how to best heal yourself and others, read this book.” (Deepak Chopra, MD)

“Shamini is that rare integration of mystic and scientist who serves as a potent bridge in a time when the divide between grounded science and ungrounded spirituality has never been more polarized. When patients have tried everything, the news isn’t good, and conventional medicine has run out of options for cure, a portal of possibility opens. This is the space Dr. Jain explores in Healing Ourselves.” (Lissa Rankin, MD, New York Times best-selling author of Mind over Medicine and founder of the Whole Health Medicine Institute)

“Dr. Shamini Jain is a pioneering voice who has dared to take us beyond common paradigms to the frontiers of a new scientific perspective — one that includes all aspects of a human being: mind, body, and spirit. Healing Ourselves is grounded in research, thoughtfully written, and deeply inspiring. You will read it and have hope.” (Emma Seppälä, PhD, author of The Happiness Track)

Absolutely loved the reporting of science (and sometimes lack of) around energy healing. For scientifically minded individuals, who know energy healing is real and they still can’t get out of their own way to experience, believe, or practice, this was incredibly inspirational. Thank you

Fascinating read

Shamini Jain does a wonderful job at explaining the concept of Biofield Science in a way that is accessible to all. I highly recommend this audio book in particular as it is read by Dr. Jain and includes quite a few meditations.

EXCELLENT!

Excellent! This book is way ahead of its time. Thank you for your work Dr. Jain.

inspirational

Inspiring and well-researched! I bought the paper copy so I may review the exercises and re-read the studies.

Brutal listen!

I really wanted to like this. I've heard her speak before and enjoyed it but this was dramatically, annoying read and there was very little actual content outside of reading the results of clinical trials for different energy modalities. Very dry and boring. Very disappointing.
