Book Description
A comprehensive course in the power of energy medicine—drawing on polarity therapy, esoteric anatomy, and somatics—that reveals the vital role of consciousness in the healing arts Esoteric Anatomy offers a spiritual approach to massage, bodywork, and somatic psychology, demystifying an ancient transpersonal model for understanding energy in nature and working with consciousness in the healing arts. It offers a comprehensive health care system based on understanding the body as a field of conscious energy—a system that promotes healing, health building, and self-actualization. Author and spiritual healer Bruce Burger begins by introducing Polarity Therapy in a series of energy-balancing sessions that can be used in conjunction with other forms of therapy and bodywork. This holistic approach can alleviate physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual suffering, including clearing trauma from the cellular memory of the brain. Next, he turns his attention to Esoteric Anatomy in a section of essays that explore the role of energy—or life force—in the healing arts, drawing from the wisdom of ancient India. And finally, Burger builds upon his studies of Polarity Therapy and Esoteric Anatomy to present a unique system of Somatic Psychology that can promote further healing. Thorough, insightful, and complete with illustrations, Esoteric Anatomy is a fascinating course in energy medicine that can guide you toward better health, personal growth, and spiritual transformation.

Book Description
Introduction to: Esoteric Anatomy - Part 1 This is an essential reference book for the seeker of Truth and spiritual progress. It takes a detailed look at the physical structures in you that underlie your spiritual nature, as well as the effects of spiritual awakening on the physiology. H. P. Blavatsky, Alice A. Bailey and others attempted in the words of their era, to help us understand what we truly are. They veiled much of it in mystic terms to protect those who might misuse this knowledge. Over one hundred images, diagrams and charts in this book, many in colour, will help you to understand this vast and important subject. In this first of the two part work, Dr. Baker draws on his training as a medical doctor to reveal in masterly fashion the exoteric (physical) and esoteric (less dense/higher) function and interactions within our nature. Many diseases are discussed and their karmic causes explained, making this volume a "must have" for those interesting in healing and for those wanting to "KNOW THY SELF".

Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 233

Book Description
Introduction to Esoteric Anatomy – Part 2: Head and Neck (completed) The purpose of this treatise on esoteric anatomy is to provide a background and a basis for such specialised esoteric sciences as that of esoteric healing, anthropogenesis, biomagnetism, etc. Perhaps some of the basic principles of esoteric healing need to be borne in mind when the student reviews the contents of this work. Some of the topics explained, while supported by many drawings and images, are the pineal gland, the Third Eye, the clavicles, pain and ecstasy, the spinal column, systems of reward, the sympathetic nervous system, the respiratory system, nasal breathing, the choroid plexus and others. This extraordinary, very detailed work is meant to encourage always the use of natural energies, instead of drugs that invariably produce some toxic effect. The medicine of the future, especially that which we call preventive, must take into account the energy tracts of the subtle bodies and the application of natural energies to correct their disorders. If the student can understand the esoteric anatomy of the head and neck, he will understand also the process whereby man is offered the possibility of entering the kingdom above us.

Occult Botany

Author: Paul Sédir
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1644112612
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 537

Book Description
• Includes a dictionary of nearly 300 magical plants with descriptions of each plant’s scientific name, common names, elemental qualities, ruling planets, and zodiacal signatures, with commentary on medico-magical properties and uses • Explores methods of phytotherapy and plant magic, including the Paracelsian “transplantation of diseases,” ritual pacts with trees, the secret ingredients of witches’ ointments, and the composition of magical philters • Explains the occult secrets of phytogenesis, plant physiology, and plant physiognomy (classification of plants according to the doctrine of signatures) Merging the scientific discipline of botany with ancient, medieval, and Renaissance traditions of occult herbalism, this seminal guide was first published in French in 1902 as a textbook for students of Papus’s École hermétique and sparked a revival in the study of magical herbalism in early twentieth-century France. Author Paul Sédir, pseudonym of Yvon Le Loup (1871-1926), explains the occult secrets of phytogenesis (the esoteric origin and evolutionary development of the plant kingdom), plant physiology (the occult anatomy of plants), and plant physiognomy (classification of plants according to the doctrine of signatures). Unveiling the mysteries behind planetary and zodiacal attributions, he provides readers with the keys to make their own informed determinations of the astral properties of plants. Moving from theory into practice, Sédir explores various methods of phytotherapy and plant magic, including the Paracelsian “transplantation of diseases,” the secret ingredients of witches’ ointments, and the composition of magical philters. In the third section of the book, Sédir offers a dictionary of magical plants that covers nearly 300 plant species with descriptions of their astral signatures, occult properties, and medico-magical uses. Compiled from an array of rare sources and esoterica, this classic text includes a wealth of additional materials and supplemental charts and diagrams drawn from Sédir’s occult colleagues, all of whom adopted and expanded upon Sédir’s pioneering system of plant correspondences.

The Healing Paradox

Author: Steven Goldsmith, M.D.
Publisher: North Atlantic Books
ISBN: 1583946160
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 321

Book Description
Why does Western medicine fail to cure chronic physical and mental illness? Why do so many treatments and drugs work only for a limited time before eventually losing effectiveness or producing harmful side effects? Dr. Steven Goldsmith's answer is at once counterintuitive and commonsensical: the root of the problem is our combative approach. Instead of resisting and fighting our ailments, we should cooperate with and even embrace them. We should look for and apply treatments that are integrated with the causes of illness, not regard illness as an enemy to conquer. This "hair of the dog" principle is already widely evident in practice. Take, for example, vaccines and inoculations, which are small doses of the microbes that cause the diseases being prevented; the use of the stimulant Ritalin to calm and ground people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder; and radiation, which is both a well-known cause of cancer and a well-known method of treating it. These are just a few of Goldsmith's many examples, which he relays in clear, evocative, and thought-provoking language. Perhaps most compelling of all, he explores reasons why this clearly effective principle is ignored by Western medicine. Drawing on fascinating case studies and personal experiences from his forty-year career as a medical doctor and psychiatrist—as well as abundant clinical, experimental, and public health data that support his seemingly paradoxical assertion—Dr. Goldsmith presents an exciting, revolutionary approach that will change the way you think about medicine and psychotherapy.¶

Hermetic Philosophy and Creative Alchemy

Author: Marlene Seven Bremner
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1644112892
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 561

Book Description
• Examines the foundational texts and principles of Hermeticism and alchemy, showing how they offer a foundation for a psycho-spiritual creative practice • Takes the reader on a Hermetic journey through each of the seven traditional planets, offering meditative discourses that speak directly to the intuitive soul • Provides examples from traditional alchemical art and the author’s own intricate esoteric paintings Drawing on ancient Egyptian and Greek cosmogonies and essential Hermetic texts, such as the Corpus Hermeticum, the Emerald Tablet (Tabula Smaragdina), and the Nag Hammadi codices, Marlene Seven Bremner offers a detailed understanding of Hermetic philosophy and the art of alchemy as a foundation for a psycho-spiritual creative practice. Offering examples from traditional alchemical art and her own intricate esoteric paintings, Bremner examines the foundational principles of Hermeticism and alchemy and shows how these traditions are a direct means for accessing higher consciousness and true self-knowledge, or gnosis, as well as a way to extract the essence of one’s own creative gifts. The author takes the reader on a Hermetic journey through each of the seven traditional planets--Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, the Sun, Venus, Mercury, and the Moon--exploring their mythological, philosophical, alchemical, Qabalistic, magical, astrological, and energetic natures and offering meditative discourses that reach past the rational mind to speak directly to the intuitive soul. She relates the seven planets to the esoteric anatomy of the human body, specifically the seven chakras, and shows how the planets can offer understanding and experience of archetypal energies and patterns in the body, in one’s life, and in the creative process. A profound synthesis of magical and occult teachings as well as an initiation into the alchemical opus, this book reveals how to integrate and apply Hermetic and alchemical principles to awaken inner knowing, liberate the imagination, and live a mystical, creative, and truly inspired life.
