Based on the idea that a patient brings about their own illness, this book suggests that symptoms are expressions of psychological conflicts, and can only be healed when the patient is aware of what is behind the problem. The book covers the meaning of specific symptoms, covering various systems such as respiration and digestion, and illnesses ranging from cancer to varicose veins. In each case, the authors explore the mindset that precipitates the symptom, and suggest new perspectives which can induce healing.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Seminal metaphysical work,
By Vivian Sudhalter (Princeton, NJ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Healing Power of Illness: The Meaning of Symptoms and How to Interpret Them (Paperback)
For those who find meaning in the books of Louise Hay and other "heal yourself" thinkers, this seminal work may come as a surprise. Originally published in German in 1983, it is in fact the forerunner of many books written in the '90s about the mind/body connection. Deeper and more powerful than the more popular works, it is a perfect gem. When you read about the influence of the mind on our various body systems, you will instantly recognize the symptoms and connecting psychology of your friends, your family, and even yourself. There's more than theory here, too - you'll find questions that will have you re-examining every concept you ever had about illness.

A WHOLE NEW PERSPECTIVE,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Healing Power of Illness: The Meaning of Symptoms and How to Interpret Them (Paperback)
One man's opinion:
A heady, fantastic read for those who are open to the broader viewpoint. To me, the book says basically that we need to evolve away from hating, disliking, shunning or rejecting certain ideas, people, places, and so on. We need to become whole. Jesus said we should "love one another," and I believe Paul Twitchell said, "Never find fault, never criticize." One reason for this is, as Healing Power points out, things we reject/hate often show up in our lives as illness. They show up so we can confront them - because we must! Life wants us to become whole, loving, enlightened - however you like to put it. And there's much more here. Highly recommended. Also see Harold Klemp's books for help in understanding how we are the sole creators of our own lives. Are we ready to see this?

A very useful radical , exceptional book,
By AD "AD" (India) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Healing Power of Illness: The Meaning of Symptoms and How to Interpret Them (Paperback)
This book is for the brave few, who want to know why something happens to them , why they get diseases, how to interpret them, and more importantly to take ownership and responsibility for their illness, rather than blaming germs, viruses, genes and the like. The style of the authors is about the best that I have ever read, honest, blunt, and to the point. A must book for the few people who are ready to look within.
