LANDMARK WORK IN ENERGY MEDICINE, WIDE-RANGING AND USEFUL June 20, 2003 As a physician interested in helping patients achieve wellness, I was fascinated by Donna Eden's Energy Medicine. I maintain a large library of books on complementary health topics. Among the hundreds of books in the category of Energy this book STANDS OUT as the only book to my knowledge that addresses so many different energy systems. I have wondered how to reconcile chakras, meridians, etc. and Donna Eden does just that. The book is also unique because it demystifies and provides access to many routines that can be used for self-help. Many books are full of esoterica and mystery that leave the reader with useless knowledge. Energy Medicine is full of practical information. Chapters deal with major topics. Within each chapter are "How-to Boxes," giving specific suggestions on how to manage over 30 different common problems. The short Daily Energy Routine in Chapter 3 has benefited everybody who continues to do it. I bought the videos because I wanted to see Donna at work and I wanted to see some of the movements. They are an excellent addition to the book. Energy Medicine is a gold mine of information. Every time I dig for a nugget, I get something out of it. The book bears re-reading, and I can testify that the effort is time well- spent. My copy is dog-eared from use. I purchased a second book as a loaner because I recommend it so frequently. Optimal health has been defined as the unlimited and unimpeded free flow of life force energy through body, mind and spirit. This book introduces you to techniques which make that possible.

December 18, 2003 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 * Elevated moods * A sense of well-being * A genuine spring in your step * Energy levels you probably haven't experienced in years 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!

It beautifully portrays our bodies' amazing energetic networks with clarity and precision. It is well organized, easy to follow and suffused with the authors' experiences and insights. I consider this to be the master textbook for energy medicine! This book is full of simple techniques that one can easily use to improve health and well-being. It includes a daily 5 minute routine that improves general well-being as well as many other tips and strategies for specific problems. I use the techniques on a daily basis and they have caused a huge shift in my well being. My life just keeps getting better as I apply the principles I have learned. If you want to learn about our energetic systems and feel empowered and uplifted at the same time, you will love this book! Reviewer: Kathy Chambers Portland, OR USA Rating: ***** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ESSENTIAL ENERGY HEALING REFERENCE BOOK January 30, 2002 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. Reviewer: Cynthia S.

This book sets out the principles of Energy Medicine in such a way that, chapter by chapter, knowledge is added layer by layer. Part of the book covers the meridians of the body and Chinese Five Elements Theory written so that even the layman can understand these principles. This book is packed full of self-help measures that the reader can apply immediately. It also contains much interesting material for the professional Kinesiologist, allowing them to add to their repertoire. It includes such things as how to keep yourself and your kids calm, how to get your kids up in the morning (using energy techniques), techniques for breast pain and pain control methods, among many others. Donna's joy and vitality infuses each page of this book and makes it a very enjoyable read. No one, having met or seen Donna at workshops etc. could doubt the efficacy of energy medicine. She exudes such good health, love of life and positive energy and this comes through in this book. I heartily recommend anyone whose good health is compromised, who wants more daily energy or wants to expand their knowledge of energy medicine, to read this book, use the self-help guidelines and see for themselves how it improves their life. Reviewer: MRS MARY R KING Tadworth, Surrey United Kingdom Rating: ***** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THIS EXCITING BOOK TEACHES YOU TO HEAL YOURSELF WITH ENERGY! February 2, 1999 In the foreword to this book, Caroline Myss states "The contribution Donna Eden has made with Energy Medicine will stand as one of the backbone studies as we lay a sound foundation for the field of holistic medicine." I found that Eden's approach to energy medicine is simple, yet amazing. She incorporates many ancient ways of healing, focusing on Chinese meridian theory, the chakras, the aura, the 5 elements, and four other systems. She explains our multi- layers, how to maintain them, and how to weave all the energy systems together. Her five-minute daily routine for "keeping your energies humming," for instance, is easy to follow and practice yourself. She also shows how the body is a barometer. Even lack of joy shows up in the body. Eden is a highly developed intuitive, and you will find your own way to heal yourself with the guidance you find in this excellent, well-organized book.
