Review

In this book I have sought to select essential thoughts from my various books and arrange them so as to give the reader the experience of a journey into healing. I hope this journey will influence your perceptions, the better to free your body's natural tendency to perfect health. To complement this text I have added pages on meditation, one of the best ways to access our inner intelligence, to experience who we really are.

From the Inside Flap

In this volume, essential ideas from the work of Deepak Chopra, M.D., are arranged to create a transcendent experience for the reader, a journey into healing.  Along the path, we discover that what we think and feel can actually change our biology. We learn to go beyond self-imposed limitations that create disease, and to seek that place inside ourselves that is at one with the infinite intelligence of the universe, the source of life. By the final pages of this book, the reader's consciousness will have been altered by the experience of the journey itself. Such change has the power to transform our lives, to grace us with the gifts of lasting peace and perfect health.

The final pages of this book contain techniques for the Mindfulness Meditation, which can access the silent space between your thoughts and tap into the inner wisdom that will make all your dreams come true. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars A thought provoking experience., July 10, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Journey into Healing: Awakening the Wisdom Within You (Deepak Chopra) (Audio Cassette)

After listening to this book, I found myself rewinding it to listen again. Dr. Chopra's principles are simple to understand, and do not conflict with most religious convictions. For me, this book has enhanced my understanding of what role I play in my own healing or dis-ease in life. In taking the time to perform the meditation of which Dr. Chopra speaks, has helped this me to slow down, listen to what my body says, and act accordingly. I am sharing my good fortune with others.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Wisdom! Highly Beneficial!, April 20, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Journey into Healing: An Oncologist's Seven-Level Program for Healing and Transforming the Whole Perso n (Hardcover)

The cassette and book of Journey Into Healing is highly serene, comforting, peaceful, and abundantly filled with beneficial wisdom. I have listened to this tape several times and I highly recommend it. I, along with many people I know read and enjoy many of Dr. Chopra's books and tapes. Journey Into Healing is highly enjoyable and a rewarding learning experience. Journey Into Healing is among my favorite cassette tapes and Dr. Chopra is among my favorite author's. He is an incredible being that shares enormous knowledge. I am an author myself on Amazon.com and Journey Into Healing is one of many cassettes and books that have contributed to my personal development and inspiration. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awakening To Higher and Healing Truths, October 10, 2004

CPTScott - See all my reviews

This review is from: Journey into Healing: Awakening the Wisdom Within You (Audio CD)

I've had this program on Audio Tape for many years and always thought it was wonderful. It is filled with wonderful music, thoughtful, sincere narration by Deepak and is filled with many insights that can help one remember truths about ourselves.

While I will be the first to admit that I don't take everything Deepak Chopra says at face value. Often I feel he is an excellent "compiler" of ideas but not necessarily very spiritually evolved himself (which he has implied himself on programs I have). He is not only excellent at compiling but he is very adept at bridging the ancient with the modern, the sages with the Quantum physicists in a way that anyone can understand. For this alone I think he deserves deep praise.

I've used this program to help me reconnect with my true self and go within, to remind myself of deeper aspects of myself and those around me.

It's a nice transition to use for meditation as well, especially if you're stressed and need to be eased in gently. Of course I'd recommend doing Yoga for that purpose as well or even playing this tape while doing gentle poses to help create an atmosphere of centeredness while reminding one of these truths.

Highly recommended!
