Here is an extraordinary new approach to healing by an extraordinary physician-writer -- a book filled with the mystery, wonder, and hope of people who have experienced seemingly miraculous recoveries from cancer and other serious illnesses.
Dr. Deepak Chopra, a respected New England endocrinologist, began his search for answers when he saw patients in his own practice who completely recovered after being given only a few months to live. In the mid-1980's he returned to his native India to explore Aruyveda, humanities most ancient healing tradition. Now he has brought together the current research of Wetern medicine, neuoscience, and physics with the insights of Ayurvedic theory to show that the human body is controlled by a "network of intelligence" grounded in quantum reality. Not a superficial psychological state, this intelligence lies deep enough to change the basic pattenrs that design our physiology -- with the potential to defeat cancer, heart disease, and even aging itself. in this inspiring and pioneering work, Dr. Chopra offers us both a fascinating intellectual journey and a deeply moving chronicle of hope and healing.

"Overall, I enjoyed this book. I do wish he would have referenced his assertions so that more research could be done by the reader, however. I also found that some of the assertions were loosely strung together and were not the easiest to follow. I do appreciate any effort to break through into the mystery of this realm of "quantum healing" and appreciate the opportunity to read more about Dr. Chopra's beliefs about it. The one failing of the viewpoint that Doctor Chopra takes in this book, in my opinion, is that he focuses on the spontaneous healing in diseases, particularly, cancer. Where the real miracle of wellness is to be found, I believe, is in the patients WHO NEVER GET THE DISEASE TO BEGIN WITH! These are the patients we are all really aspiring to be like!"

" Ugh, this concept it rad! "
— Mike, 2/16/2014" I just love Deepak Chopra. This book is unbelievably fascinating! It's short but deep. I don't even have anything in particular I want to heal, but I loved it anyway! "
— Taralyn, 2/15/2014" REALLY really enjoyed it, and I have recommended it to many of my friends. "
— Jihan, 2/11/2014" this book is amazing and potentially life altering. I love that it teaches the benefits of meditation in a tangible way, you can actually alter your chemical make-up(DNA) by spending time in the "Gap" "
— Sara, 1/27/2014" Encouraging, hopeful and deeply inspiring... Dr. Chopra explains the body/mind connection in a simple and clear way that makes the mysteries of DNA and the immune system almost within my grasp! "
— Barbara, 1/26/2014" Another one I had forgotten I read...I remember it a bit over my nead...this should probably be a 3.5 "
— Kathryn, 1/26/2014" Rather interesting, though I do think that one should do a bit more research before they sign up to learn TM or anything. I do TM, and it does work wonders, but it is more than meditation, and one should be willing to acknowledge that prior to beginning the practice. "
— Stephanie, 1/18/2014" Deepak Chopra and anything having to do with mind/body healing appeals to me. Great book. "

— Carol, 7/20/2013" This book is kind of enlightening about our mind and consciousness which are nonmaterial, and how they affect our body which is material. One can also know how our body works perfectly. "

— Edie, 12/17/2012" Fascinating eye-opener! "
— Tanya, 9/10/2012" It is hard to dispute that we don't know the secret of life itself. Hence, it is possible that you can heal yourself with this ineffable will. However, the book is a little short on the nuts and bolts of it. "
— Dan, 11/24/2011" Always nice to hear positive aspects & guidance in self healing. Similar to many other positive books I have read revolving around self awareness. "
— Carri, 10/18/2011" was fun, interesting and a different way of looking at healing. wonder if it can really be true, but then again, what is truth? "
— Tthibodeau, 10/16/2011" This book should be a staple in everyone's library. Great discussion of the mind/body connection with enough scientific support to make even scoffers take note. You cannot read this book and not wonder what we are truly made of. "
— Nancy, 7/21/2011" Have a highlighter handy for good quotes. :] "
— Cari, 5/25/2011" Whoa! There is so much bullshit in here! Don't know where to start. If you think you have learned something from this book, write one or two things down and ask a local expert about the subject. Then tell him what you 'learned' in this book about it, prepare to be laughed at! "
— Maarten, 4/2/2011" Not a scientific proof of our ability to heal ourselves, as studies are still hard to come by there, but an entertaining series of anecdotes that serve to convince and inspire. "
— Elizabeth, 3/16/2011" Chopra opens the door to a new relationship with healing and health. "
— Jeanne, 2/22/2011" Overall I really liked this book, but much of it was over my head. I couldn't follow much of the technical jargon. But still, there was lots that I COULD understand and it was very enlightening. "
— Sue, 1/16/2011" pg.265 <br/>"The vital issue is not how to win the war but how to keep peace in the first place." <br/>(This is written in the context of the immune system, but equally applicable out-of-context.) "
— Karen, 9/14/2010" pg.265 <br/>"The vital issue is not how to win the war but how to keep peace in the first place." <br/>(This is written in the context of the immune system, but equally applicable out-of-context.) "

— Lydia, 8/7/2010" Another one I had forgotten I read...I remember it a bit over my nead...this should probably be a 3.5 "
— Kathryn, 3/27/2010" Fascinating to look at life from the quantum physics perspective and open oneself up to more than our obvious physicality. "
— Deborah, 1/20/2010" Excellent book very enlightening and eye opening. "
— Nancy, 8/20/2009" Quantum Healing is the ability of the mind to spontaneously correct the mistakes of the body. Your body knows how to heal it cut, it knows how to heal everything if we can connect to it properly. <br/>The body is the metabolic end product of our thoughts, perceptions and experiences. "
