A complete guide to the work of the remarkable twentieth-century seer Edgar Cayce, featuring Cayce's most intriguing and influential readings, and a biographical introduction to his life. Edgar Cayce is one of the most mysterious men of the twentieth century. Sometimes called "The Sleeping Prophet," he was prone to pick up taglines that reflected the sensationalistic side of his work rather than its real depth and meaning. The core of his life's work was actually being an intuitive healer and Christian mystic. More than one hundred books have been written about his teachings and his life story. Yet no book has combined insightful commentary with lengthy, verbatim selections of the full range of his contribution to holistic healing, practical spirituality, and the psychology of the soul. The Essential Edgar Cayce gives the reader an understanding of each major area in which Cayce helped pioneer the modern holistic living movement, as well as the contemporary popular approach to spirituality that weaves together the best of Eastern and Western religious traditions. The book's substantial introduction frames Cayce and his life's work, and is followed by eight topical sections in which commentaries by Mark Thurston guide the reader through some of the seer's most significant readings. Here is a truly integral portrait of the life and work of one of the twentieth century's most fascinating spiritual figures.

"Eyeopening... Fascinating... may presage a paradigm shift in medicine." -Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"Teeming with information and big ideas... Outstanding."-Booklist (starred review)The origin of asthma, autism, Alzheimer's, allergies, cancer, heart disease, obesity, and even some kinds of depression is now clear. Award-winning researcher on the microbiome, professor Rodney Dietert presents a new paradigm in human biology that has emerged in the midst of the ongoing global epidemic of noncommunicable diseases. The Human Superorganism makes a sweeping, paradigm-shifting argument. It demolishes two fundamental beliefs that have blinkered all medical thinking until very recently: 1) Humans are better off as pure organisms free of foreign microbes; and 2) the human genome is the key to future medical advances. The microorganisms that we have sought to eliminate have been there for centuries supporting our ancestors. They comprise as much as 90 percent of the cells in and on our bodies-a staggering percentage! More than a thousand species of them live inside us, on our skin, and on our very eyelashes. Yet we have now significantly reduced their power and in doing so have sparked an epidemic of noncommunicable diseases-which now account for 63 percent of all human deaths. Ultimately, this book is not just about microbes; it is about a different way to view humans. The story that Dietert tells of where the new biology comes from, how it works, and the ways in which it affects your life is fascinating, authoritative, and revolutionary. Dietert identifies foods that best serve you, the superorganism; not new fad foods but ancient foods that have made sense for millennia. He explains protective measures against unsafe chemicals and drugs. He offers an empowering self-care guide and the blueprint for a revolution in public health. We are not what we have been taught. Each of us is a superorganism. The best path to a healthy life is through recognizing that profound truth.

HOLISTIC HEALTH Mechthild Scheffer's groundbreaking bestseller Bach Flower Therapy revolutionized the science of Bach Flower Remedies, detailing the spiritual and psychological applications of the flowers. Now, with Mastering Bach Flower Therapies, Scheffer presents the definitive guide to incorporating Bach Flowers into one's life. Rather than using a theoretical approach to treatment, Scheffer presents firsthand accounts of patients cured by the f lowers and provides expert commentary on the course of their diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. The first practitioner to recognize the psychological underpinnings of the Bach Flower Therapies, Scheffer demonstrates in a series of case studies that emotional and physical well-being are inextricably linked, and she shows how the flower therapies can be a powerful tool--not only for healing individual symptoms, but for putting the course of one's life back on track. The keystone to Scheffer's approach is an eleven-page diagnostic questionnaire that gives a rigorous profile of one's psychic state and quickly identifies the appropriate combination of flowers. Included are Kirlian color photographs of the most popular flower essences, which for the first time enable one to see the differences between individual f lower characteristics. Written in an accessible style, Mastering Bach Flower Therapies gives you all the expertise you need to put the healing therapies to work. The official representative of the Edward Bach Centers in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, MECHTHILD SCHEFFER has worked as a naturopath in her native Germany for many years.

***This paperback edition has a new introduction by the author and updated content.This is the first volume of North Atlantic Books’ updated paperback edition of Dale Pendell’s Pharmako trilogy, an encyclopedic study of the history and uses of psychoactive plants and related synthetics first published between 1995 and 2005. The books form an interrelated suite of works that provide the reader with a unique, reliable, and often personal immersion in this medically, culturally, and spiritually fascinating subject. All three books are beautifully designed and illustrated, and are written with unparalleled authority, erudition, playfulness, and range. Pharmako/Poeia: Plant Powers, Poisons, and Herbcraft includes a new introduction by the author and as in previous editions focuses on familiar psychoactive plant-derived substances and related synthetics, ranging from the licit (tobacco, alcohol) to the illicit (cannabis, opium) and the exotic (absinthe, salvia divinorum, nitrous oxide). Each substance is explored in detail, not only with information on its history, pharmacology, preparation, and cultural and esoteric correspondences, but also the subtleties of each plant’s effect on consciousness in a way that only poets can do. The whole concoction is sprinkled with abundant quotations from famous writers, creating a literary brew as intoxicating as its subject.The Pharmako series is continued in Pharmako/Dynamis (focusing on stimulants and empathogens) and Pharmako/Gnosis (which addresses psychedelics and shamanic plants).

"Sugars that heal" it sounds like a contradiction in terms, but it's the key to one of the most important breakthroughs in recent medical science. We've all been bombarded with warnings about the evils of consuming too much sugar. But, in fact, for our bodies to function properly, we need small amounts of eight essential sugars, only two of which--glucose and galactose--are commonly found in our limited, overprocessed diets. When all eight sugars are available, the health benefits can be breathtaking: Individuals regain their ability to fight disease, reactivate their immune systems, and are able to ward off infection. Based on cutting-edge research in the rapidly evolving science of glyconutrients, Sugars That Heal is an exciting new approach to health and disease prevention.As medical doctor and scientific researcher Emil Mondoa explains, these eight essential sugars, known as saccharides, are the basis of multicellular intelligence--the ability of cells to communicate, cohere, and work together to keep us healthy and balanced. Even tiny amounts of these sugars--or lack of them--have profound effects. In test after test conducted at leading institutes around the world, saccharides have been shown to lower cholesterol, increase lean muscle mass, decrease body fat, accelerate wound healing, ease allergy symptoms, and allay autoimmune diseases such as arthritis, psoriasis, and diabetes. Bacterial infections, including the recurrent ear infections that plague toddlers, often respond remarkably to saccharides, as do many viruses--from the common cold to the flu, from herpes to HIV. The debilitating symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and Gulf War syndrome frequently abate after adding saccharides. And, for cancer patients, saccharides mitigate the toxic effects of radiation and chemotherapy--while augmenting their cancer-killing effects, resulting in prolonged survival and improved quality of life. Sugars That Heal offers a revolutionary new health plan based on the science of glyconutrients--foods that contain saccharides. It gives authoritative guidance for getting all eight saccharides conveniently into your diet through supplements and readily available foods, as well as detailed information on correct dosages. Here, too, are chapters dealing with the special nutritional needs of people suffering from cancer, heart disease, asthma, and neurological disorders, and methods for using glyconutrients to treat depression, obesity, and ADHD.The more doctors learn about glyconutrients, the more excited they become about their long-term fundamental health benefits. Now, with this new book, the breakthroughs in the study of glyconutrients are available to everyone. Whether your goal is to prevent disease, live longer and better, or treat a serious illness that has eluded conventional medicine, Sugars That Heal is your essential guide to complete health.

Peter Carls Simos har arbejdet i kostsektoren i mange år og har oplevet de inhumane strategier fra bestemte producenter. Han ved, at bag ved "mirakelkurene", er det eneste mål for dem at blive rige hurtigst muligt. Da mange af de tilbudte madadditiver aldrig rigtigt er blevet tjekket, kan producenter blande "dårlige stoffer" sammen og give det er sejt navn, og derefter betale en ukendte læge eller professor til at smile til kameraet og sælge produktet. Lige nu er en ny slankekursbølge på vej: "Grøn kaffebønneekstrakt" er den nyeste mirakelkur mod fedme, til et godt helbred, og til at optimere din metabolisme. Simons ved: Fremgangsmåden er ikke en dårlig ide, men der er en meget billigere variant, der fungerer ligeså godt, og netop af den grund er det ikke blevet videregivet af producenterne eller deres læger – det vil koste dem indtægter. Det er derfor, at Simons fortæller dig sandheden i denne bog.

SB Metoden er ikke en "kur" men en livsstilsændring. Med SB Metoden siger man farvel til gamle mønstre og vaner, og lever efter en ny livsstil, hvor belønningen er varigt vægttab og en sund og stærk krop. Forskellen på SB Metoden og en slankekur er, at en slankekur er en "kur" man er på i en tidsbegrænset periode. Når slankekuren er slut, vender de fleste tilbage til gamle mønstre og vaner,hvorefter de tabte kilo sniger sig på igen. Slankekure prikker til den evindelige dårlige samvittighed, som altid minder én om, at man BURDE og SKULLE leve mere sundt. Med SB Metoden bliver du den dårlige samvittighed kvit, og erstatter den med fantastiske resultater, som gør dig glad i låget. En af fordelene ved at leve efter SB Metoden er, at du IKKE behøver forsage ting. Faktisk må du gerne spise "alt", dog med omtanke. Det som tæller er, at dagligdagen er i balance. Læs "SB Metoden", og dit liv vil ændre sig for altid!
