For more than twenty years, Dr. Elliott Dacher, a practicing physician and leading advocate of mind/body healing, has worked with thousands of patients, not simply by treating them with conventional methods, but by helping them rethink their ideas about healing and wellness. Now, based on his thoughtful, original, and universal approach to health, this groundbreaking book can help any of us tap into the greater healing powers we all have, to achieve new balance and wholeness in our lives.In Whole Healing, Dr. Dacher moves beyond a focus on individual approaches to propose a truly visionary new view of health. Using an original "whole healing" model, he highlights our four healing systems, which together have a remarkable power to keep us well: the body's own natural system of checks and balances; the best traditional and alternative treatments available; the mind/body approach, in which physical and psychological components are interdependent; and the transforming strength of our spiritual resources. Relying on his own practice as well as the latest research into the body's natural healing potential and the wisdom of ancient healers and contemporary thinkers, Dr. Dacher examines how we can access these four systems simultaneously for renewed health. Based on these fundamental concepts, Whole Healing includes step-by-step, imaginative exercises that start the reader on an incremental and exciting path to wellness.
