Product Description
From Amazon
This alternative-medicine self-help guide promises to teach you to help heal yourself and others using the body's own natural energies. Building on such diverse concepts as acupuncture and therapeutic touch, Donna Eden lays out a practical framework in Energy Medicine for flushing out and recharging the body's systems.
"This book will show you how to work with the electromagnetic and more subtle energies that give your body life," Eden writes, along with her husband, psychologist David Feinstein. "These energies form the foundation of your health."
For instance, if your head aches or feels clouded, energy may be stagnating there, so do the "crown pull" to release it. The book gives a detailed description of how to do this and other energy-fixing exercises, and provides time estimates and illustrations for doing the maneuvers.
Eden, who has practiced energy medicine for more than 20 years and has given classes around the world, also relates stories about some of her clients, including those with cancer and chronic pain. While Eden says people can help themselves and others with the techniques in the book, she urges them to seek professional care as well.
Energy Medicine includes chapters on various energy systems, ranging from the meridians to the chakras, the basic grid to the strange flows, and chapters on how such systems relate to pain and illness. It also includes an appendix listing organizations and Internet sites for other forms of alternative medicine, like naturopathy and qigong. The book is a useful guide for people interested in this form of alternative healing. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Publishers Weekly
Afflicted with myriad health problems, Eden approaches alternative health-care practice from the viewpoint of both practitioner and patient. As a massage therapist, she has more than 20 years of experience practicing and teaching the methods of applied kinesiology. This book is the culmination of her experiences, presenting techniques she developed through studying a variety of methods and working with her clients. Eden's work is based on the premise of an "energy body," made up of chakras, meridians, auras, strange flows and Celtic weaves. Healing involves balancing these energies for optimal physical health and well-being, pain management and vitality. With simple illustrations, Eden presents clear instructions for many do-it-yourself or with-a-partner techniques that involve tapping, tracing, smoothing and massaging, as well as more than 100 quick fixes for relieving common ailments and stresses. Unfortunately, these remedies are placed randomly throughout the text, making it inconvenient for reference. Nonetheless, Eden delivers an excellent, comprehensive guide to a unique combination of ancient Eastern and modern Western health-care techniques.

Essential Energy Healing Reference Book,
By Cynthia Sue Larson "Author of Reality Shifts" (San Francisco bay area, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Energy Medicine (Paperback)
Donna Eden's book, ENERGY MEDICINE, is a priceless addition to any energy healer's book shelves. In simple language with clear illustrations, Eden outlines ways to release stress, restore energies, escape the grip of fear, concentrate in the midst of fear and stress, feel joyful more often, overcome digestive problems, mend broken arms and legs, overcome nervousness, calm people (and yourself), relieve arthritic pain, relieve muscle cramps, relieve low back pain, and regain control when feeling hysterical. I would be thrilled with any book that so clearly outlines techniques for helping people with such a wide variety of ailments, aches and pains, but ENERGY MEDICINE goes several steps further. Eden describes the body's energy meridians, chakra balancing, and how to do the "celtic weave". As Eden explains, "The Celtic weave, as an energy system, laces through all your other energy systems and creates a resonance among them. It is the weaver of your force fields. It holds your entire energetic structure together. As an exercise, you use the Celtic weave to pulse your aura's energies outward and to strengthen them. The exercise also connects all your energies together so they operate as a single web. Touch one strand, anywhere, and your whole system reverberates in harmony." I love the way ENERGY MEDICINE includes a vast assortment of fascinating real-life stories of energy healings that Donna Eden has been involved in, including her own recovery from being bitten by a poisonous insect in Fiji. The shamans in Fiji treated Donna for her bite by burying her up to her neck in sand for long stretches several times over a two day period, believing the toxins would be drained into the sand. Donna recovered her full health in Fiji, and shortly thereafter began her studies of energy healing. I highly recommend ENERGY MEDICINE to anyone with an interest in energy healing. Experienced energy healers and novices can all find much of great value in this essential reference book.

Not a book for people who enjoy feeling bad!,
By
This review is from: Energy Medicine (Paperback)
If you are one of those rare people who really has no interest in feeling good and having more energy, then, whatever you do, don't buy this book. If you do, don't do a single one of the exercises. You are forewarned that doing these exercises will likely mean that you're going to experience:* Improved health This is a book that's jam-packed with information that's easy to use, yet extremely effective. Eden is generous with her techniques, and for those willing to actually practice them, lives will change for the better--physically, mentally, and spiritually. I cannot recommend this book strongly enough, or often enough. I've experienced my own miracles from using these techniques, and watched as others who tried them found their own personal miracles. But it's really not for those who want to maintain an existence of pain, low energy, and bad moods. Those people need to avoid this book at all costs! For all others--click on the "Add to Shopping Cart" button immediately. You'll love this book!

Energy Medicine Made Easy,
By Jamela Franklin (Stone Mountain, Georgia United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Energy Medicine (Paperback)
As an energy practitioner, I have experienced many "healers" who have been sincere in their dedication and devotion to God, the clients, and to the healing profession. However, Donna Eden is like none other. She explains the various techniques in a simplistic, practical manner. Anyone can use the techniques within this text. It is clear that her intention is not to be heralded as a guru, master, or mystical being. Her purpose is to help teach and heal those interested in the healing arts. I have read the book and watched her Energy Healing video; both are phenomenal! This is a Must Read text for anyone in the healing arts.
