ABOUT THE BOOK
The cutting edge of medicine today is not to be found in invasive therapies like drugs and surgeries. It is in the disciplines that used to be regarded as "soft" medicine: prayer, intention, energy healing, acupressure, and similar therapies. Overwhelming evidence from hundreds of scientific studies are showing that these safe, non-invasive approaches are often more effective, sometimes many times more effective, than conventional medicine.
Two of the pioneers in the field, Dr. Norman Shealy, founder of the American Holistic Medical Association and world-famous neurosurgeon, and Dr. Dawson Church, one of the foremost writers and researchers in vibrational healing and the editor or author of many books on the subject, explain the fundamentals of energy medicine, its many applications to common ailments, and the latest scientific research.
* Solidly grounded in scientific research, this book has the the very latest studies on the remarkable effectiveness of energy medicine.
* Exciting therapies can help conditions that are completely beyond the scope of conventional medicine, such as autoimmune diseases.
* Develops the next stage of the ideas on DNA and consciousness found in Bruce Lipton's best-seller, The Biology of Belief, and is endorsed by him.
"Norman Shealy and Dawson Church complement each other nicely in this lively and enlightening discussion on many of the roads to healing. Some chapters are authored by each, others appear (by implication of no identifying author) to have been written jointly.
The premise of soul medicine is this: We allow the perfect consciousness of health contained in the soul to express freely in the patient's energy system. Through this intention, healing is triggered in heart, mind and body. (p. 31)
Shealy contributes his wealth of knowledge about medical aspects of Soul Medicine, including bioelectrical and nutritional therapies. What is most impressive about Shealy's work, teaching and writing is that he walks his own talk. He checks out the therapies he recommends on himself, to the extent possible. What is even more impressive is that Shealy is looking younger each year, following the regimen he lays out in this and in his other books.
Church contributes his personal and researched understanding of the spiritual side of the healing spectrum, including several startling physical healings effected personally through spiritual healing.
Both authors contribute to understanding the energetic paths to healing and suggest helpful ways in which we can access and apply soul medicine to heal our physical and psychological problems.
This is an easy read, a helpful introduction to unconventional approaches to healing for anyone who would like to explore beyond the bounds of conventional medicine. For those wishing to explore further, generous references open doorways to further study.

"I just finished reading Soul Medicine: Awakening Your Inner Blueprint for Abundant Health and Energy by Norman Sheali,
MD, Ph.D. and Dawson Church, Ph.D..
The book is broken down into five sections, the first two dealing with the history of health, medicine, healing and healers and the last three explains Quantum Healing, Energy, Electricity and Therapy, and Soul Medicine of the Future.
The authors explain, "The premise of soul medicine is this: We allow the perfect consciousness of health contained in the soul to express freely in the patient's energy system. Through this intention, healing is triggered in heart, mind, and body."
They go on to explain "The Three Pillars of Soul Medicine":
1)'The concept of the human being as an energy system; every atom in the body vibrates at a certain energy level and we are electromagnetic entities.' (31), 2)'Consciousness is the second pillar as our energy systems are affected by consciousness.' (32), 3)'Intention - provides the power, the motive force, to set in motion the complex chain of events that result in healing.' (35)
In chapter nine the authors list 14 soul healing practices:
meridian-based therapies, color and light, homeopathy, sound, touch and healing, aromatherapy, biofeedback, manipulation, meditation, electromagnetic stimulation, traditional medical practices, prayer and faith healing, conscious lifestyle, and subconscious reprogramming. MMMM - no mention of environmental healing and/or Feng Shui healing - although it could be argued that color/light, sound, and aromatherapy could be a part of environmental healing that isn't what I'm talking about.
Some people are in buildings, whether at work, home, or store's, a big percentage of their life and most of those buildings are harming your health and your soul! Our buildings are sick!
I do want to give the authors credit where on page 203 they do start discussing the influence of electromagnetic fields on people and the world. And somewhat about water; however I guess I would like to see more about pollutants in our buildings that effect us as well; perhaps in their second edition they'll consider adding more with regards to this topic as I feel it would make a nice addition to an already good and informative read.

"Reviewed by Terry South for Reader Views (3/07)
"Soul Medicine" conveys that a vibrant spiritual connection is essential to wellness. The author's contend that there is a spiritual connection which is established in the consciousness and through intention which they state can alter the bodies' energy field. You will find these principles described in the book as well as many scientific studies that demonstrate the power of consciousness to heal.
Norman Shealy, MD, PhD is a neurosurgeon and is the founding president of the American Holistic Medical Association. And Dawson Church, PhD, is currently researching Quantum Medicine, which is the exploration of the newest studies on the effects of the consciousness on DNA.
The entire book is so intriguing and engaging, but I will have to say that my favorite chapter is Chapter 10 entitled "Your Personal Soul Connection Inventory." The authors state that "a healthy relationship with your soul, and using soul medicine as primary care, is the best thing you can do for your body." In this chapter they list characteristics which they have found to be common to people with a vibrant soul connection. The characteristics include all the following: forgiveness, tolerance, serenity, faith, reason, hope, motivation, consistency, community, joy, gratitude, and love, all of which are explained in detail. You will also find within this chapter that they include a soul connection inventory of 50 items in which you add up your own personalized score and interpret your own results.
Being a nurse, I know that stress affects the body, the more stress a person endures and has in their life, they eventually begin to adapt, thereby reducing our threshold for new stress is lowered which eventually causes a cascading effect on us. Stress plays a major role in disease, all of which is explained within "Soul Medicine." The holistic approach to medicine is on the rise in our nation and "Soul Medicine" brings to our attention the issues of consciousness and intention.
The authors explain that your consciousness holds the key to your own well being, and even small shifts in energy and awareness can produce major shifts in our health. They continue on and include a look at the history of faith healers, and trace the factors that were and are common to healings they term as "miraculous healings."
"Soul Medicine" is intelligent and engaging, and I found it difficult to put down. This is a very highly recommended read for anyone who is interested in their health and well-being."

"Chinese and East Indian medical practitioners have long known that there are underlying issues and cures available for dis-ease, and western medicine simply does not successfully address these issues. But the holistic approach is on the rise, and Soul Medicine brings to the forefront of our attention the critical issues of consciousness and intention. We can treat symptoms all day long, but until we start looking at how we think and what we believe about our bodies and illness, about health and how our bodies were designed to function perfectly we are not going to excape the patterns of fear and group belief that keep us stuck and sick. Keep a close eye on Church and Shealy. I think we will be seeing more of Soul Medicine. "
