Description
In 1979, Dr. Bernie S. Siegel, a successful surgeon, took a class from Elisabeth Kübler-Ross that focused on crayon drawing for healing, especially with patients facing life-threatening disease. Siegel incorporated into his practice these techniques — many of which were laughed at by others in the medical community. But his Exceptional Cancer Patients "carefrontation" protocol facilitated healings, often deemed miraculous, and attracted attention. "Dr. Bernie" discovered and shared the fact that while patients might need antibiotics, surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, their bodies also want to heal. He found that this innate propensity could be aided by unconventional practices, including drawing. Why? Drawing produces symbols often representing the subconscious. Siegel shows how to interpret drawings to help with everything from understanding why we are sick to making treatment decisions and communicating with loved ones. All those facing ill health, and those caring for them, personally and professionally, will welcome the hands-on, patient-proven practices offered here.

fullDescription
In 1979, Dr. Bernie S. Siegel, a successful surgeon, took a class from Elisabeth Kübler-Ross that focused on crayon drawing for healing, especially with patients facing life-threatening disease. Siegel incorporated into his practice these techniques — many of which were laughed at by others in the medical community. But his Exceptional Cancer Patients "carefrontation" protocol facilitated healings, often deemed miraculous, and attracted attention. "Dr. Bernie" discovered and shared the fact that while patients might need antibiotics, surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, their bodies also want to heal. He found that this innate propensity could be aided by unconventional practices, including drawing. Why? Drawing produces symbols often representing the subconscious. Siegel shows how to interpret drawings to help with everything from understanding why we are sick to making treatment decisions and communicating with loved ones. All those facing ill health, and those caring for them, personally and professionally, will welcome the hands-on, patient-proven practices offered here.

        November 15, 2013

        Author and former surgeon Siegel (Love, Medicine & Miracles: Lessons Learned About Self-Healing from a Surgeon's Experience with Exceptional Patients) shares his techniques of alternative approaches to healing that restore not just the body but the mind and soul as well. Calling himself a Jungian physician, he practices a synthesis of individual and group therapy that uses meditation, creative visualization, drawings, dreams, and the exploration of feelings. Siegel helps readers address physical ailments through what he calls "carefrontation," or safe and loving therapeutic confrontation that assists personal empowerment, healing, and lifestyle changes. Relying upon a discussion of symbols, drawings, and the role of intuition, Siegel gives readers the guidance they need to facilitate their own healing. VERDICT A strong title; recommended for those truly interested in studying alternative forms of healing and who are willing to put time and effort into understanding all the facets of Siegel's work.
