Conscious Medicine is a book of hope and inspiration for the modern world. It is full of clear, practical guidelines into the skills for working with personal consciousness. As well, it contains multiple stories of Consciousness in action in all mannery of difficult circumstances. A rare book of practical wisdom for living healthy, happy, and in good relations with the world around you. I love Akhail's personable approach in Conscious Medicine as he invites us to enter into a co-creative relationship with our bodies. Akhail brings decades of real experience as a therapist and heart-centered teacher, offering a beautifully simple but powerful path for re-friending our bodies. It is an excellent map and approach for contacting the immense healing resources and divineintelligence within. Eric W. Thompson Founder, Subtle Energy Sciences Reading this wonderful book 3 times has been a healing experience. It has helped me understand that much of the suffering each of us feels is a contraction, a condensation of our energies. And much healing--physical, mental, and spiritual--is a relaxation, an expansion, a releasing contraction. This allows the natural ow and manifestation of our energies. The book implicitly challenges the prevailing materialistic, so-called scienti c models of man, medicine, life and healing. It provides anecdotal and poetic alternatives. I suggest that you read it as a work of art from a deeper place than rigid scienti c models. Dr. Andrew Ferber, Bodhicitta Allopathic physician and Psychiatrist for 65 years. Meditator for 50.
