ENERGETIC BODYWORK

Book Review by: VijaiKSharma     

Original Author: Rita J. McNamara
        We all want to have a healthy life. But our health depends on many factors, such
as food, exercise, smoking, alcohol, physical overwork, preventive measures, timing of diagnosis and treatments etc. There is a close relationship between mind and body.  The emotional stress definitely has effect on our health, but there are ways to control it. This book has six Chapters. Chapter 3 discusses decreasing, increasing or toning meridian energy.  The Sheng cycle indicates to us about balancing and readjusting these energies. This can be done by muscle massage, pressure pointing and meridian tracing.  Twelve sets of sketches for each of the meridians have been given with details. As per Chapter 4 Aromatherapy uses oil extracted from plants by distillation through local baths, massage application. Details of 17 oils with application points have been provided. Color therapy is used through visualization, solarized light and solarized water.  Gem therapy uses gem stones (as per procedure) for the indications listed in the book. Homeopathic therapy treats an individual in totality. Most of the diseases are caused due to tension, and anxiety. A table gives the main emotional issues and conflicts and remedies thereof. The book is easy to understand. It emphasizes on practical techniques and gives case studies, glossary, bibliography, suggested readings, details of resources for remedies and information. As a guide for understanding and finding a balance between mind and body it is useful for everyone.
