Healthcare and medical practitioners have often been hard pressed to explain how a healer is able to alleviate suffering and the ill effects of disease with no more than a “laying on of hands.” But respected scientist, Gary E. Schwartz, Ph.D., has witnessed a healer remove an ovarian tumor in a matter of weeks or completely ease the pain of a broken wrist of a man in excruciating pain in a matter of minutes. Even more amazing is the possibility of a healer thousands of miles from the patient to regenerate the nerves of a broken spine. Increasingly the barriers between traditional medicine and alternative medical approaches have been disappearing. Drawing on the data he has collected from his National Institute for Health (NIH) sponsored laboratory research to explain the reality of energy healing, Dr. Schwartz has written THE ENERGY HEALING EXPERIMENTS: Science Reveals Our Natural Power to Heal (Atria Books; $25.00; Hardcover; ISBN: 978-0-7432-9237-5; August, 2007). Written with William L. Simon, Dr. Schwartz reveals the unexpected truths about how everyone can harness their own human energy to positively influence those around them.

THE ENERGY HEALING EXPERIMENTS explains how everything has energy and that energy extends out in all directions. Dr. Schwartz’s research shows that the heart and brain each generate energy and can “affect every other organ, cell, and molecule in the body to various degrees as well.” Various healing applications, such as Reiki, Johrei, Qigong, healing touch, therapeutic touch, quantum touch, and vortex healing are capable of significant benefits, and that literature is replete with case studies of cures “beyond all reasonable expectation.” Dr. Schwartz’s experiments address fundamental and far- reaching issues such as:

* Whether our bodies register invisible fields of energy, including TV and radio

Signals

* Whether we sense the energies of people, animals, and even plants
* Whether the energies generated by our bodies can be measured by electronic devices
* Whether our energies affect the physiology and behavior of diverse living systems—bacteria, animals, plants and even other people—and can be used by us to foster healing and health.

Here is scientific evidence that is provocative, eye opening and fascinating. By the end of THE ENERGY HEALING EXPERIMENTS, Dr. Schwartz sums up by saying “we have implicitly bridged physics, psychology, and medicine, with metaphysics, metapsychology, and yes, even metamedicine. Healing is the goal here, and if you find the evidence of this book compelling, be ready to claim your natural power to heal.”
