Life Changing

Dr. Levy is the real deal and his methods work. After a major neck injury and emergency surgery, my neurosurgeon said I would never walk again without assistance and I was living in chronic pain that no prescription painkiller could touch. I used Dr. Levy's methods to free myself from pain and paralysis in a case where traditional medicine had nothing to offer me. The beauty of his book and the accompanying audio methods is that they constitute an entire system of self-healing that can be tailored by anyone to meet their individual needs. The scientific explanations are easy to understand, the stories gripping and insightful, and the methods so simple a child can use them. Just as importantly, the book packs an extraordinary side-benefit: it turns you on to just how much power and control you can exert over your health, your future and the world around you. It is nothing shy of life changing.

One M.D.'s Opinion

As an M.D., I have the following thoughts to offer: Western medicine has always changed with discovery, be it in mind-body medicine or otherwise. The first question is not how to change, but what is truth? The following points come to mind: Numerous researchers, including Bernard Lown, M.D. and Dean Ornish, M.D., have demonstrated how negative mental states such has stress predispose individuals to disease, and that correction of these states improve health (references 1, 2). A group in London recently showed that mental stress causes asymmetric brain activity that raises susceptibility to serious ventricular arrhythmias (reference 3). Therefore, by clinical experience, randomized controlled trials, and finally by steps towards elucidating the connections between mind and body, science appears to slowly be moving in the direction of acceptance and proof. In one study in Chicago, 96% of the surveyed physicians reported believing in the placebo effect, and 45% actually reported using placebos in their clinical practice (reference 4). If we can take the preceding evidence, remember science will forever continue to unfold truth, and allow ourselves to currently accept the connection between mind and body as true, then we can both continue exploration into the field and try to implement it in daily practice. In this book, Dr. Levy brings to light the mind-body connection, and offers a number of easy ways to practice the functional parts of the connection to benefit. Examples include hypnosis, visualization exercises, and new exercises not previously encountered. Strengths of the book include his rational approach, the simplicity of his techniques, and, again, the originality of his ideas. I find many of the techniques both easy to implement and difficult to practice, my mind carried away by daily thoughts of work or forthcoming activities. And yet, I am surprised that I do seem more relaxed; I compare this with the aforementioned study that found risk of heart disease increased with mental stress, and it suggests that I did indeed benefit. Part of the reason there is relatively less research and publicity in this field, though it is increasing with the formation of the NIH National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, is that it is difficult to define and quantify variables - but it certainly appears that how we feel, whether we like it or not, can affect our health. This book, as the many others before it, present further impetus for large, controlled trials investigating these effects, for certainly large trials are needed to prove the sometimes subtle benefits. I do not think anyone can disagree with Dr. Levy's own words: "try the methods, observe what happens, and go with your own experience." 1. Lown B. et al.

IF YOU HAVE HEALTH ISSUES, YOU MUST READ THIS BOOK

I found this book in a book store on Feb 15, 2008. I had to buy it then, as I have been in a lot of pain. I started reading it that night. I did the "feeling energy" chapter right away and was feeling energy so quickly! A tingling, a warmth...it is hard to describe. It is called manipulating BioEM energy fields to heal physical problems. Just doing this for one evening took the edge off my pain right away. And I know pain; I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, a replaced right ankle and IBS. I have been doing this everyday since and am amazed how the pain and stiffness is going down, in only 12 days!!! I feel so much more hope than I have in a long time. Doctors don't have much to offer us in many illnesses, except for drugs, surgery, etc. Many doctors are missing the WHOLE picture, health isn't just about symptoms and treating the symptoms. I am thankful for Dr. Levy and other doctors like him who do see that we are more (at our core we are spiritual beings, but we "forget" this) and can heal, IF we do the work. We have to stop being lazy and expect Doctors to heal/cure us, they won't. Be proactive and put your health in your hands, you have that power, it truly is amazing. This book really gives us that opportunity. But you must be willing to do what he outlines and more, if you are not willing, then don't buy this book. It takes work from you and just reading it won't help you. I am still working on the other areas of the book too. I am meditating, have been on and off for years, now that I know it helps pain, I will continue! You can download the audios and put them on a CD or iPOD. I also know hypnosis works, I have done it in the past. But now I can do it at home with these audios. Also I am writing my conscious assessment and looking for the mental causes. Levy says that "every disease in the body begins with dis-ease in the mind. There is a mental root for every physical problem. If you discover this root and heal it, your physical health will improve. There are no exceptions." (Chapter 5) I have believed this for years, but didn't know how to get to the bottom of it. Emotions cause our health problems. Much of them are buried in our subconscious, we don't consciously know what is affecting us, but under hypnosis we can find the answers we need to release the emotions and thus the health problems. Buy this book and do the work he outlines, you will be amazed too. For now, just try holding your hands close together without touching, 1/4 of an inch or so apart, out in front of you and perpendicular to the floor. Pay attention to what you feel, keep at it, you will feel the energy! So while I sit and watch TV, I hold my hands together and immediately feel the energy moving all over my body, esp to my feet as that is where I need it most...it knows where to go! If you buy this book you won't be disappointed IF you are willing to really make a commitment to improving your health and do the work in it. Check out Dr. Levy's w

Miraculous Health is Exceptional -- Practical & Powerful

Miraculous Health is a practical and powerful guide to getting and staying healthy using mind-body health tools. It integrates the latest of scientific research together with spiritual wisdom into simple, clear language, making it accessible to almost anyone. I particularly like the step-by-step, nuts- & -bolts approach Dr. Levy takes, going from an introduction to the field of mind-body health to giving tangible tools to be applied in daily life. The guided meditations I downloaded from the website are exceptional!! I've been listening to them, relaxing, letting go of stress & getting clear of life goals! I also like Dr. Levy's focus on helping people achieve their "noble ambitions in life," something the world can certainly use!

Dr. Levy is amazing - this is a must read!

If you are looking to get healthy and want an approach that is both based in practicality and spirituality, then this book is definitely for you. In the past, I was lucky enough to have heard Dr. Levy speak in a public forum, so I have seen first hand how amazing he is and what a clear communicator he is. The book is a lot like his talks - easy to follow along and very inspiring. It is also really cool that the book has links to a number of online tools that you can use to master the techinques covered in the book.
