It has been known for some time that our thoughts influence our health. However, the extent of this discovery is taken to a new dimension in this groundbreaking work that is based on the experiences of its two authors, in working with the I Ching. Health, not illness, is the natural standard for the body. Our body functions through a harmonious cooperation between the consciousnesses of all the various organs & bodily systems. The root causes of illness are to be found in ideas & beliefs that are in conflict with what our body knows on its deepest level through the DNA that is embedded in every body cell. Ill health is caused first by thoughts that make us vulnerable to illness through disabling our natural defenses. Once we have become vulnerable, other kinds of sick-making ideas & beliefs can enter & manifest in specific illnesses. This book shows how to recognize such beliefs & deprogram them with Cosmic help. The result is that our self-healing abilities are restored & our body, freed from the burden of sick-making thoughts, springs back to health. At a time of drastically increasing costs for conventional health care, this book enables its reader to take matters of healing back into their own hands. ...

This book provides a clear & authoritative summary of the results & clinical implications of research in spiritual healing, energy medicine & the effects of intentionality. Recent publications in the Archives of Internal Medicine, the Western Journal of Medicine, JAMA & the Annals of Internal Medicine have focused on prayer, distant healing & spiritual healing. Therapeutic touch is taught in many nursing schools & laying-on-of-hands & mental healing are of great interest to the public. But what is the science behind these practices? Is there any research? Is it any good? What are the implications of this research for medicine & science? How should investigation of spiritual healing proceed, if at all? These are the questions this book explores. This book derives from a project sponsored by the Lawrence S. Rockefeller for the purpose of rigorously evaluating the science of spiritual healing. To produce the book, some of the best researchers in these areas were asked to use a standard set of quality criteria for the evaluation of science & clinical research. A conference of scientists, physicians, ministers & others then reviewed & discussed this literature & addressed methods for their further evaluation. The conference was organised by the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, Duke University, Wake Forest University & the Institute of Noetic Sciences. The evidence level of these areas was rated using standards established by government groups & published in JAMA for classification of the amount & quality of evidence in medicine. Each area was summarised, & clinical implications identified. Recommendations for future research & investigating the impact of healing practices in the clinical setting were also made. ...

Why do some people get sick while others stay healthy? If diet were the only factor, why do some people who eat a healthful diet still get sick? This proves that diet is not the only factor. Why do some people who eat a very unhealthful diet not get sick? Are they just blessed? Are they just in the right place at the right time? Our Creator designed our bodies to be perfect & never to get a disease. He made us to be perfect. Anytime you experience discomfort, its because you re not following our Creators commands. The answer to feeling well again simply comes down to going back to our Creators words. What does He say about health? What does He say about diet & food? What does He say about exercise & rest? Do you know what He says? Do you follow what He says? All the answers can be found in the Scriptures (holy Bible). During my lectures on the road, our Creator promptly guides my thoughts toward the very scriptural passages that run parallel to & shed light on my ideas. The Scriptures are a great instruction manual of how to live life; though its messages date back thousands of years, still they hold strong & ring true to this day. I wrote this book to help you find these timeless answers. Enjoy! ...

Though largely unknown, vitamin K is critical for our health. It is needed for the normal clotting of blood & for the formation & maintenance of healthy bones. Although vitamin K2-- also called menaquinone--is naturally produced by some of our intestinal bacteria, only a limited amount of this essential vitamin is stored in our bodies. A lack of this vitamin, which can be caused by a poor diet & the regular use of certain drugs such as antibiotics, is not uncommon. Now, a new supplemental form of vitamin K, specifically vitamin K2--menaquinone-7 (MK-7)--is becoming more widely available to health consumers. It is showing great promise as a natural treatment for heart disease & bone loss. Available in soy products & as a nutritional supplement, MK-7 is clinically proven to be safe & effective.
