Book SynopsisWritten by leading medical intuitive and energy healer, Christine Lang, this practical and accessible guide goes beyond the “trust your gut” trope so often associated with tapping into your intuition by teaching readers how to converse directly with their enlightened spirit. What if your broken foot is a warning not to accept that new job? What if you got the flu not because of ‘bad luck,’ but as a cosmic gift to keep you away from a family gathering that became a toxic bloodbath? What if all of your chronic symptoms are hints, pointing you towards a better life, if only you could decipher the clues? Ask Your Spirit answers these questions by teaching you how to converse directly with your spirit. The connection to this invaluable resource provides you with personalized guidance on health, relationships, and career dilemmas. Unlike many spiritual books that simply help you “increase your intuition” or offer general tips on connecting to spirit guides, esteemed medical intuitive Christine Lang provides a detailed, step-by-step process for establishing a practical dialogue with the wisest part of you that’s committed to spiritual growth in this lifetime. This ongoing conversation with your inner wisdom is like having your spirit on speed dial. You’ll learn how to discern between your soul’s voice and your ego’s voice so you can start trusting your spirit’s priorities, decoding its messages, and understand the expiration date of your messages. Along with client-centered success stories and testimonials from medical professionals, you’ll see exactly how these practices offer life-changing results.

Book SynopsisWith the troubling side effects and surging costs of medications and surgery, Americans are increasingly turning to CranioSacral Therapy as an effective, drug-free, and non-invasive therapy. A gentle, hands-on method of evaluating and enhancing the function of the craniosacral system — the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord — CST boosts the body’s natural healing processes and has proven efficacious for a wide range of medical problems from migraines, learning disabilities, and post-traumatic stress disorder to fibromyalgia, chronic neck and back pain, and TMJ. This book provides a broad introduction to this therapy by way of short pieces written by a number of well-known practitioners or experts. In addition to pioneer John E. Upledger, contributors include Richard Grossinger (Planet Medicine), Don Ash (Lessons from the Sessions), Don Cohen (An Introduction to Craniosacral Therapy), and Bill Gottlieb (Alternative Cures). Each selection covers a different aspect of CST: what it is, what it does, how it heals, what the practitioner does during a CST session, CST’s relationship to cranial osteopathy and other healing therapies, as well as other topics of interest to the beginner.
