"The proper use of energy in the healing arts has a long and significant history. From the TENS machines and laser surgery that we've already mentioned to the use of sound waves to break up kidney stones, or X-rays and magnetic fields to see into the body and the use of light to clean the blood. Some forms of energy are more effective than others. As we will see, scalar energy is merely another application of healing energy. It is the application of science as nature intended." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.) "Since then, studies at the American College of the healing arts by Dt. Michael Tierra, author of The Way of Herbs, indicated that consistent use of Suma may help combat fatigue (including treatment of chronic fatigue and low-energy conditions), prevent colds and flus, speed healing, regulate blood sugar, and stimulate the sex drive. The key working ingredients in Suma are: • Pfaffic acid, which prevents the spread of various cell disorders. • Pfaffocides and othet saponins, which help stop diseases already in progress." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

"The Tai Sophia Institute is an accredited and highly respected graduate school for acupuncture and other healing arts located between Baltimore and Washington. It has been innovative in the use of acupuncture as an adjunct to addiction treatment programs, having created the Penn North Neighborhood Center as a community-based wellness center for those "seeking to recover their lives by understanding their relationships with substances." The Penn North center provides ongoing access to the wellness program, including a six-month outpatient substance abuse program and is well worth checking out." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.)

"Consequently, despite the flaws, failures, and shortcomings of the existing system, we lack the appropriate data to generalize such an opinion in looking at one aspect of a given segment of the healing arts. In light of our caveats, it is important to keep an open mind when considering any approach to health care concerns. No appropriate decision can be made when based upon an opinion that contradicts or fails to consider the integrated dynamics of the realms. In review, it is always helpful to remember that: • Anything can cause anything. • For every action, there is a reaction." - Richard, Dr. DiCenso, Beyond Medicine, exploring a new way of thinking (Get the book.) "Each area of specialization in the healing arts has a distinctive rationale associated with it. Opinions regarding the cause and course of treatment for any given healthcare concern will vary according to the bias related to the particular discipline of the healthcare professional from whom you seek advice. For example, a person with back pain will have a surplus of advice to choose from depending upon whom they consult for guidance. Every discipline has an intrinsic belief system associated with their approach to any given set of symptoms." - Richard, Dr. DiCenso, Beyond Medicine, exploring a new way of thinking (Get the book.) "The Fifth Caveat: When All You Have Is a Hammer, Everything Looks Like a Nail In addition to the caveats listed above, I have come to understand that the areas of expertise in the healing arts, referred to as specialties, are merely arenas of extensive information about a distinct feature of mortal existence. Hence the emergence of the next caveat: "When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail." In other words, when something is always looked at the same way, it always looks the same." - Richard, Dr. DiCenso, Beyond Medicine, exploring a new way of thinking (Get the book.)

"Rochester, NY: healing arts Press, 1987:57-65. ® TREATING ANXIETY WITH VITAMIN B-3 (NIACINAMIDE) Niacin and niacinamide are both commonly referred to as vitamin B-3. The biochemistry of vitamin B-3 is well known in that it is involved in 200 enzymatic reactions, mostly involving dehydrogenases within the human body. Its active forms or its coenzymes are both nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). Vitamin B-3 can be absorbed directly from the stomach, but most of its absorption occurs within the small intestine." - Dr. Jonathan Prousky, BPHE, BSc, ND, FRSH, Anxiety: Orthomolecular Diagnosis and Treatment (Get the book.)

"Prescription: Belief Imagine the healing arts of the future reformulated around the idea of thoughts, driven by the power of feelings, as shapers of our reality. When a cardiac patient visits a doctor, the first prescription the doctor might offer might not he a drug but a precisely formulated sequence of thoughts and feelings designed to affect the genetic predisposition of people at risk for heart disease. James Dillard, M.D." - Dawson Church, The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention (Get the book.)

"The system is a combination of many different healing techniques including Chinese Chi Kung, Japanese Reiki, the "laying on of hands" from the Christian tradition, Tibetan healing arts and more. The word "prana" is from Sanskrit and means "life-force". The healing system is based on the principle that the body is designed to repair itself and that the process can be accelerated by increasing the life force energy." - Alan E. Smith, UnBreak Your Health: The Complete Guide to Complementary & Alternative Therapies (Get the book.)

"My ideal place is one where, from an early age, we gain as much information as possible about our bodies and how they work; a place where we try to understand how to respect our bodies and treat them with the various healing arts. It is a place where we take what is best from our collective culture and history, and repudiate the violence and emptiness of commercial culture. In this place, beauty is not just a thin Hollywood veneer, nor sexuality just alienating, animalistic, penetrative and male-initiated." - Martin J.

"I know of many others in the healing arts who have similar rituals. I also try to consciously direct my good wishes to somebody as I greet them in the street with a 'gidday' (Kiwi for 'Have a nice day!'), and as I sign my e-mails, 'cheers'. It may be a long time before there is overwhelming scientific proof that this is having a definite healing effect, but for me it contains three very valuable ingredients. It is completely safe, it keeps me happy and it is absolutely free." - Robin, Dr. Kelly, The Human Antenna: Reading the Language of the Universe in the Songs of Our Cells (Get the book.) "Many honor their inherent understanding of holistic principles by committing themselves to the practice of yoga, Pilates or meditation, or by training in one of the many healing arts. All of these changes are soul-enhancing, allowing intuition to flourish. They are all activities that help ease open the door to higher levels of conscious awareness. It is important for me to stress here that those who do not have children, either through choice or infertility, are in no way disadvantaged." - Robin, Dr. Kelly, The Human Antenna: Reading the Language of the Universe in the Songs of Our Cells (Get the book.)

"Bernard Jensen wrote: There is much being done in the healing arts today which coerces patients into doing what they should through fear. More than fifty years later, Dr. Jensen's statement is still true, especially for a man when his sexual ability starts to wane, urination becomes difficult, his doctor tells him he needs a prostate biopsy, or he is told he has prostate cancer. His fear can easily lead him into accepting treatment that may not be in his best interest. Fear is your enemy! It destroys your ability to make informed decisions and causes stress that exacerbates the problem." - James Occhiogrosso, N. D., Your Prostate, Your Libido, Your Life (Get the book.)
