I am a psychologist teaching part-time in a family practice residency. I have been using this book for several years to teach resident physicians ideas and skills to help their patients get better faster. The book does a good job of linking the fascinating world of mind-body medical research with practical ideas about how to change. In particular, the authors help everyone get off to a good start by normalizing the process of change and suggesting ways to avoid relapse. Another strength is the emphasis on a variety of methods to increase relaxation and picturing success, two time-tested skills. I recommend this book without reservation.

5.0 out of 5 stars absolute best book i have ever read, January 21, 2000

nick toth (rocky mountains) - See all my reviews
This book is awesome, It mentions great ways to reframe our toxic way of thinking in an optimistic approach. I would love to teach this material in a class because it affects all of us 100%. The concepts and ideas are staggering and if we apply these principles to our daily lives we are going to live longer and more productive lives as well as reduce depression, hostility and divorce. If you can read, read this book, you will not be disappointed! If you are a therapist ot teacher it would be even more beneficial for you to spread this wonderful knowledge like wildfire. thanx :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the read, September 20, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Great book. Teaches how meditation, imagery, etc can help with many conditions. Shows how to use moderation in exercise and life. Worth the read. Very easy to find the things you want to learn about, so you don't have to read the whole book. My doctor gave me a copy to borrow. I loved it so much I had to buy one for myself.
