Voices from the Other Side of the Couch: A Warrior's View of Shamanic Healing
"There's a big couch in my office, forest green with dark gold stripes. People who come to see me usually sit there to talk and tell their stories. But I don't hear only the person sitting across from me. I am always amazed at how many other voices are present when I am talking to people. Some talk to me as you would, others seem to come from visions, still others just appear in my mind. They seem to come from the other side of the couch, hovering in my mind just out of normal means of perception. They come from another world, a real world, but different from the ordinary reality of two people just sitting and talking. Learning how people connect to this other world, this greater world of the Universe, is what this book is all about."
-From the Introduction
"There are few doctors who are as brilliant as they are soulful, as powerful as they are compassionate. Dr. John Myerson is the most gifted shaman I've ever known and the only person I've ever encountered who can create a healing alchemy that can completely transform a life. I've experienced his power directly and watched him cure "incurable" problems with his astonishing spiritual intervention. Dr. Myerson is also a master teacher whose book is a gold mine of case studies and explorations of consciousness. Read it and allow John's wisdom to expand your ability to access your own spirit and to know the healing power of love."
-Amelia Kinkade, best-selling author of Straight from the Horse's Mouth and The Language of Miracles: A Celebrated Psychic Teaches You to Talk to Animals.
"How does a gifted shaman-healer actually work? This question is answered in this fascinating and sometimes dramatic book.
"Dr. Myerson not only shows various archetypes or patterns by which people connect to the power of the Universe but also demonstrates ways in which those patterns either can be disrupted or can enrich our lives with unlimited insight and creativity. He also describes the energies he sees around people and shows how we can become aware of them and use them beneficially.
"In a powerful last chapter he gives an account of his own spiritual and healing journey from an accomplished martial artist to a Doctor of Chinese Medicine and of Western psychology to a Shaman-healer.
"An exceptional book which I highly recommend."
-Paul Gallagher, author of Drawing Silk: Masters' Secrets for Successful Tai Chi Practice.
