Kathleen Dowling Singh, PhD. The Grace in Dying: A Message of Hope, Comfort, and Spiritual Transformation, San Francisco/New York: HarperCollins Publishers 1998   332 pp  $15.00  28 pp notes and references
Kathleen Dowling Singh presents excellent descriptions of many healings that are possible in the process of dying.Singh specifies that this book is for people who have a space of time towards the end of their life -- or are close to someone in this situation -- and who can contemplate what lies ahead.  It is not for people who are already in the process of transition. At this stage, one's business is simply to get on with what is happening, not to distance oneself from it through analyzing it.

Tim Johnson, Herbage, 3^rd Edition CD-ROM   www.holisticopia.com  $100
CD contains 28,000 concise (quite brief) monographs about medicinal plants. It also lists historical attributes from around the world. The sheer number of herbs covered is astounding. From Aaron's Beard to Zizotes Milkweed, most of the herbs were exotic or uncommon.
Once you review the brief monograph on the herb, Herbage takes you deep into the Internet database using a web-browser to explore the 3 largest ethnobotany databases and 18 leading works on the subject. Needless to say the sheer volume of data looks staggering. Some of my search requests brought up over 8,000 responses.

Healing Research, Volume II -
Consciousness, Bioenergy and Healing:
Self-Healing and Energy Medicine for the 21st Century
Daniel J. Benor, M.D.
Foreword by C. Norman Shealy, MD, PhD

This book will dramatically broaden and deepen your understanding of health, illness and healing.

Consciousness: We have far greater potential for healing ourselves and each other than we generally appreciate. Dr. Benor, a wholistic psychiatrist, explains how mind-body and body-mind interactions can cause illness or promote health through wholistic interactions of body, emotions, mind, relationships (with other people and the environment) and spirit.  An enormous body of research, clinical examples and a variety of theories explain healing through complementary/ alternative medicine (CAM), including meditation, visualization, acupuncture, osteopathy and many more modalities, with clear and concise explanations of each of these healing modalities.

Bioenergy: Newtonian medicine has been slow to absorb the lessons of quantum physics: The body can be addressed not only as matter, but also as energy. Subtle biological energies are used by many CAM therapies - some moving through the hands of the therapist, others through specialized interventions explained by Dr. Benor. Acupuncture addresses energies in acupuncture points, along meridians running from head to toes, and in chakras - the body's energy regulating centers. Homeopathy and flower essences introduce energies and information through the water that is their vehicle for treatment. Does all this sound strange? Dr. Benor has gathered an amazing body of research in this book to confirm the healing potentials of these subtle bioenergy therapies - explaining some of the roles of our energy body.
    Biological energies interact with environmental energies. Dr. Benor reviews a wealth of research on unconventional energies and considers their relevance to spiritual healing - following on Volume I of Healing Research, which reviews 191 controlled studies of healing, demonstrating it is a highly effective treatment.

Healing: Dr. Benor explains how we can create health or illness through body-mind interactions, wholistic CAM and bioenergy medicine interventions. He reviews and discusses impressive research supporting claims that CAM and bioenergy therapies are potent and effective treatments.

	SPICULES: JETS ON THE SUN
	The final mystery is oneself.   When one has weighed the sun in the balance,   and measured the steps to the moon,   and mapped out the seven heavens star by star,   there still remains oneself.   Who can calculate the orbit of his own soul?                  Oscar Wilde	Photo Credits: SST, Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, LMSAL
	Imagine a pipe as wide as a state and as long as half the Earth. Now imagine that this pipe is filled with hot gas moving 50,000 kilometers per hour. Further imagine that this pipe is not made of metal but a transparent magnetic field. You are envisioning just one of thousands of young spicules on the active Sun. Pictured above is perhaps the highest resolution image yet of these enigmatic solar flux tubes. Spicules dot the above frame of solar active region 10380 that crossed the Sun in June, but are particularly evident as a carpet of dark tubes on the right. Time-sequenced images have recently shown that spicules last about five minutes, starting out as tall tubes of rapidly rising gas but eventually fading as the gas peaks and falls back down to the Sun. These images also indicate, for the first time, that the ultimate cause of spicules is sound-like waves that flow over the Sun's surface but leak into the Sun's atmosphere.

 

PLEASE SUPPORT THE WHR AND IJHC NEWSLETTERS
AND THIS SITE!

WholisticHealingResearch.com and the Newsletters were created and are maintained and expanded as a labor of love and dedication to healing - without outside support.

Many have suggested charging for access to WHR and our Newsletters, but I don’t want to exclude those without means to pay. There are many visitors to WHR from parts of the world where credit cards and funds are not as readily available as they may be to you, and people urgently seeking information about healing who may not be in a space to pay for access to WHR.

Your donation of $5 (more will be gratefully accepted!) will go towards expanding the resources available on the site, to update sections of the site as new studies and progress in healing are published, and towards secretarial support so that Dr. Benor can devote more time to developing and expanding the content of the site.
