Everything you need to use MAP is in this book, February 3, 2002
This review is from: MAP: The Co-Creative White Brotherhood Medical Assistance Program (Perelandra Center For Medical Research) (Paperback)
What's so exciting about MAP is that it's easy to learn and it's free. There are no workshops to take, you can do it yourself, that means you don't have to find a practitioner who works with energy, and that means you don't have to pay a practitioner for weekly visits. Everything is right here in this book, and rarely have I found a book of this type that is so well written and clearly organized. The first few chapters give you an explanation of the process and the steps for a MAP session, so you can read about 50 pages and get started right away. After that, she goes into a deeper explanation of what happens in a session, then the rest of the book is devoted to specialized topics that you can read as you need them, such as surrogate sessions, calibration, MAP for animals, flower essences, and kinesiology, plus a few others.
Basically, MAP is a medical program where you work with energy beings (my term, not hers) and nature intelligences. In your first session you'll assemble a team that will be your specific team for as long as you use MAP. Machaelle describes it like this: "MAP is a physical program that works on your well-being from the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual perspective.....it works on strains, pressures, pain, and conflict felt on all these levels simultaneously." It takes a commitment to keep doing MAP, but it's not hard to learn. She suggests twice a week sessions at first, then once a week (each session takes under an hour) and she suggests you stick with it for five months before evaluating whether it's working for you. I could not believe my good fortune when I first learned about MAP. I am grateful to Machaelle for putting this kind of information in the hands of anyone who is interested in using it, so that we can all have the tools to improve our lives.
Whether or not you're familiar with Machaelle's other books and her work at Perelandra, you'll get a lot out of this book. This was my introduction to her work, and from here I went on to learn about her work with gardens and nature.

My testimony, November 11, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: MAP: The Co-Creative White Brotherhood Medical Assistance Program (Perelandra Center For Medical Research) (Paperback)
I came to MAP over four years ago and have used the program regularly ever since. There is nothing mysterious or complicated about it. You need not use the Perelandra essences (as another reviewer said), that is stated clearly in the book. You need not even believe in it. I know how skeptical one can be about such things that don't fit neatly into our belief system. I had a very rare and agressive cancer, few people survive it. With the assistance of MAP and my willingness to address my issues, I am today completely cancer-free and healthy. MAP is a holistic program that recognizes the effects of imbalance on health and maintains the balance of all of our bodies: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. The program is useful for such common maladies as headaches, colds, allergies. Nothing is too large or small to bring to MAP. It is empowering as well, and puts your health in your hands. Other than the cost of the book.. it's free... no appointments to make... no driving... You can set your own schedule and do this in the privacy of your home. MAP will work in conjunction with any other medical modality, so there's no need to discard the treatments you may already be involved in (ie: doctors, acupuncture, reiki, homeopathy). I advise anyone with health issues, major or minor or anyone interested in maintaining their health to investigate MAP.

WARNING -- This Book May Change Your Life!, September 10, 2001
This review is from: MAP: The Co-Creative White Brotherhood Medical Assistance Program (Perelandra Center For Medical Research) (Paperback)
The concept of MAP is simple. It seems embarrassing that I had to read a book to know about it! I have used it since 1995 and the results have been quite amazing. I started using it for physical health and gradually moved into using it for mental/spiritual health and relationships. I eventually began to use these principles to improve the quality of my work, and to move into more congenial and fulfilling work. For anyone with concerns after reading other reviews, MAP is 100% FREE to use, and MSW states that quite clearly. It does not require the purchase of any expensive items, merely a request. The use of flower essences is optional. The recommendation to use them is merely for educational purposes and for the simple fact that using them helps one to feel grounded -- active -- in the process. Sessions are conducted when one is alone, which has saved me alot of $$ on medical bills, and has made the times I do see a doctor far more productive.
