First Sentence
Just before dawn, in the intense quiet outside my desert home, slight sun and deep shadow swirl together, coloring the eastern sky a streaked gray, with a slash of brightness at the horizon, promising light. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Way to Start Your Own Healing Process April 2 2003
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Especially if you are facing illness, this book will give you a new outlook on your life through Dr. Khalsa's meditation techniques. I was diagnosed with a minor neurological disorder, and this book taught me to deal with the symptoms without medication, while healing my mind and spirit as well. I highly recommend this book for people facing serious illness, as it will provide hope and positivity, and I recommend it even if you are perfectly healthy! It is easy reading, nothing too scientific. It will change your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource!! Mar 10 2009
Format:Paperback
Quite simply, one of the best books I've read on the subject of therapeutic meditation! Dr. Khalsa deftly weaves scientific fact with ancient knowledge/philosophy, and to those who have dabbled in meditation and are looking to go deeper, this is an indispensible resource. I won't reiterate information from other reviewers about the contents of the books, but will add that the description of the use of mudras (hand positions) during meditation made sense to me for the FIRST time ever...going beyond discussion of subtle energy to one of physiology and neuroscience. Well done and thank you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cutting edge alternative health May 11 2003
By Pieter Uys HALL OF FAME TOP 50 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
The author integrates ancient wisdom and time-tested healing techniques with modern science in this informative and practical book on self-healing. The interesting foreword is by author Joan Borysenko. The purpose of medical meditation is to balance the mind, body and spirit into a powerful whole, for a better, healthier life. It provides specific medical meditations for physiological effects, including special movements and postures, mantras and breathing exercises. How to activate the healing force via the chakra system is discussed in detail and the book includes a section on staying young with the help of nutrients and maintaining endocrine health with meditation. It concludes with a list of sources, recommended reading and an index. Helpful illustrations demonstrate some of the exercises. Khalsa goes into very specific detail and provides information that I have never encountered in similar books on spiritual and mental healing. I recommend this book to all practitioners of alternative healing therapies and to all people who wish to take responsibility for the own health.
