The Healing Workbook

The Healing Workbook is far more than a 'workbook' - it is an essential and practical road map to healing and lifelong health. Integrating the mind & psychology, the gut & diet, and lifestyle choices, this book ties it all together and offers, through daily health lessons and action steps, an illuminated path to achieving (or regaining) your optimum health in both body and mind. Rather than addressing just symptoms, this book aims to address the source, which is from where true healing begins. On this journey you'll be guided on healthy nutritional choices, you will uncover places within yourself you may not have been before, and you will be shown many things conventional medicine doesn't want you to see; but this journey is the most important one you'll go on...your health depends on it.

This book, at long last, is the first Whole-Hearted Healing tutorial written for the general public. For over 15 years, Whole-Hearted Healing has proven its worth as an effective trauma-healing technique that puts all the control in the hands of the client, and radically transforms problems into positive feelings. Some key insights by its developer, Grant McFetridge, translate into a remarkable rate of success. This book is intended for people with various levels of experience with regression therapies and Peak States work: -For determined beginners, it is a suitable guide to learning the technique on their own. -For people who have attended a basic Whole-Hearted Healing or Peak States workshop, it is an in-depth review of the material they covered. -For people who have practised WHH for a few years, using The Basic Whole-Hearted Healing Manual as a guide, it is an update, written for laypeople, that includes the latest advances in our understanding of traumas and healing. -For therapists, it is an aid in explaining WHH to clients, and in empowering them to participate fully in their own healing. -And it's an entry-level textbook for students working with peak states of consciousness.

This workbook grew out of the practices assigned for self-growth and development for (1) Holistic Health: Western Perspectives, a course at San Francisco State Uni versity; (2) clients and participants at the Biofeedback and Family Therapy Institute in Berkeley; and (3) participants in peak performance training programs. The goals of this workbook are to offer experiences to facilitate life-long learning of skills to enhance health and growth. We hope the reader will experience increased autonomy and gain self-mastery skills through exercises that foster awareness and control. The cascading program is based upon uncovering, allowing, and encouraging the intrinsic drive toward integration, wholeness, and health. Each year many of our students report that practicing these skills has affected them deeply. The program offered them prag matic skills to master stress, set goals, and experience a deep change in their worldview and health. A number of them have said that this was the most useful course they had taken at San Francisco State University. The materials presented here are part of a course offered by the Institute for Holistic Healing Studies. It is also a requirement for a Holistic Health Minor and fulfills a part of the general education requirement for integrated and interdisci plinary learning. The development of this program at San Francisco State Uni versity is due to the foresight and courage of George Araki, Ph.D.
