At the dawn of the 21st century, the old paradigms of medicine have begun to fall apart. We no longer believe that our bodies are machines with parts that wear down, only to be braced up by drugs or replaced through surgery. Instead, a growing number of pioneering researchers embrace a new view of healing – one expounded by Dr. Richard Gerber in his groundbreaking best–seller, Vibrational Medicine. Now he shows how to put this new way of thinking into practical use, describing the role of consciousness and "thought forms," as well as the benefits of homoeopathy, acupuncture, colour and light healing, magnetobiology, and other therapies. A traditionally trained physician, Dr. Gerber combines scientific evidence with traditional methods from the East and West to unlock our potential for healing ourselves.

The art of Reiki has the power to heal our minds, bodies, and spirits in ways few of us can imagine. The first Reiki master to practice in an operating room under the supervision of Dr. Mehmet Oz, author Raven Keyes tells moving stories of giving Reiki to rescue workers at Ground Zero, as well as PTSD survivors, professional athletes, trauma patients, and those suffering from crippling emotional pain. Keyes offers an abundance of inspirational experiences, sharing the joys and pains of working with patients, their loved ones, and their communities. Through stories and meditations, readers are filled with hope and a sense of good will. Helpful exercises are included to provide direct application of the material and the opportunity to engage with healing energy more deeply. Praise: "My gift is surgery.
