Dr. Sylvest has captured the essence of healing in this timeless book. He speaks not only from the authority of a man of letters but from the heart of one who is humble to his Soul. He clearly shows you how the more down and out you have been, the more up and in you can finally rise. Read this book and be inspired as you use it on your journey.

The Formula was an intriguing and thought-provoking book that captured the essence of "A Course in Miracles" (ACIM) . The Formula explains in detail some of the basic concepts of ACIM that we can start applying to our life now to achieve peace and love. Dr. Sylvest descibes a process he developed for undoing guilt, anger, and fear that will allow us finally to heal old wounds, achieve forgiveness of ourselves and others, and break the cycle of repeatedly accumulating guilt and fear. In his book, Dr. Sylvest describes the many people who have returned themselves to health (including himself) regardless of their illness by using the Formula. (I won't tell you what the formula is, you have to buy the book!) The Formula was hard to put down and several times while reading this book it seemed that certain passages were directed specifically to myself about things that had happened that day or to questions that were in my mind which were subsequently answered in the text. The Formula is the kind of book I will keep handy and keep coming back to. I look forward to more books by Dr. Sylvest.

Dr. Sylvest shares his personal journey from the point of no belief in a higher source, crippling arthritis, and divorce, to the experience of a healing other doctors told him was not possible, and learning the joy and peace that comes with forgiveness. In The Formula, he tells us how we, too, may achieve such results. As a medical doctor, he is well-informed of the scientific aspects of disease, but as a deeply spiritual person he has come to know the far greater healing power of Love. Well worth sharing Dr. Sylvest's story and teachings as he has has told them in The Formula.

For those seeking greater understanding into the dynamics of healing, Dr. Sylvest shows us that the elements of the human experience - sorrow and joy, resentment and gratitude, fear and love play an important role in how our bodies will respond to these dynamics. The succinct and loving manner in which the author writes, is a tribute to the inner wisdom that comes from his heart so that he can lead us in our journey toward wholeness and peace. I cannot give this book enough praise and I thank Dr. Sylvest for writing it! Nancy Clark, author

The writer is a scientist by training and occupation. He developed a serious medical condition, said to be incurable, and found his own route to healing. He shares his personal journey and how current advances in research and quantum physics show the link between intention as a force that is the basis of physical coherence, and how using consciousness to change intention can radically change conditions. This was useful to me to look at an apparently fixed condition in my life, and decide to let the "healer within" go to work. I did seek professional medical assistance at the same time. My painful fixed condition is almost completely gone. I did not apply "The Formula" in total, but parts of it and the spirit of it.

This is a great book which helped change my life, I recommend it to anyone who is going through hard times.

this was a different kind of book from what i read. a freind recommended it. i really liked it
