The body has its own intelligence, independent of the mind, say teacher and healer Donna Eden and psychologist David Feinstein, Ph.D. In their new book, they explain that this intelligence is located in energy fields that move cells into action and coordinate the harmonizing of the body’s organs. The problem with this amazing system is that it was created for a world that no longer exists, and in the difference between what it is made to do and the needs of today’s world, stress inevitably arises, putting our bodies out of balance.

While conventional medicine has no difficulty using energy-scanning devices to obtain information, it is much less likely to treat problems and imbalances energetically. Utilizing concepts and techniques gathered from indigenous healers, Eden and Feinstein offer clear explanations, illustrations, and friendly encouragement to help women align and manage their energies for radiant health and well-being.
