USE YOUR BODY TO HEAL YOUR MIND: In stores May 1
Revolutionary Methods to Release All Barriers to
Health, Healing and Happiness

In a landmark
UCLA medical report a terminal lymphoma patient who could barely breathe was
saved at the last minute by an experimental cancer drug. No one else in the study showed any
it did – his tumors swiftly shrank to half their size. Why did this patient go into remission? It was
not only his total belief, but absence of substantial barriers to healing.
According to Dr.
Henry Grayson, author of USE YOUR BODY
TO HEAL YOUR MIND: Revolutionary Methods to Release All Barriers to Health,
Healing and Happiness (Balboa Books; May 1, 2012), past and current painful
experiences can make us sick. “If we don’t identify and clear out barriers,
many of which are not conscious, then thinking positive thoughts, holding positive
images, getting exercise and taking the right medications and supplements may
do us little good. Cumulative traumatic
or painful developmental experiences are stored in our limbic system – our
survival brain – and studies have shown a stunning connection between these and
current illnesses,” Dr. Grayson says.
This knowledge
has been the source of groundbreaking scientific fields including
biopsychosocial medicine, psychoneuroimmunology andepigenetics, all of which
have changed the traditional reductionist view of allopathic medicine. In USE YOUR BODY TO HEAL YOUR MIND, Dr.
Grayson draws on his understanding of this work and combines it with new
insights in Western psychology, the mind-expanding inner wisdom of Eastern
philosophy and the hard science of quantum physics, to explore the core of what
keeps us from embracing a healthy and productive life. He explains how our bodies are made up of
energy fields that respond to conscious thought, how those thoughts make us
sick, and how to clear out past traumas and self-destructive inner dialogs to
open the door to self-healing.
Unlike
television talk show psychology, which relies upon superficial stories, USE YOUR BODY TO HEAL YOUR MIND dives
into the guilt-ridden waters of our deepest traumas that are often hidden from
our conscious minds. He works to clear away these blocks through techniques
that have proven as effective on combat veterans battling post-traumatic stress
disorder as on civilians plagued by depression, chronic illness and disorders
previously thought to be untreatable. The result is more than a return to good
health – it is the understanding that we deserve health and happiness and have
the tools to make it possible.
Dr. Grayson is a
psychologist and psychoanalyst and the founder and chairman emeritus of the
Board of Trustees of the National Institute for the Psychotherapies in New
York; the founder and director of the Institute for Spirituality, Science and
Psychotherapy; and appeared in numerous documentaries and PBS specials. He has
studied neuropsychology, the major psychotherapies, the new power therapies,
quantum physics and Eastern and Western spiritual philosophies. He is the
author of MINDFUL LOVING and the best selling CD Audio Series for Sounds True,
THE NEW PHYSICS OF LOVE and is the co-chairman of the PTSD division of the
Stand Up For Your Troops Foundation.
