A book of miracles : inspiring true stories of healing, gratitude, and love by

Book
)
6 editions published between 2011 and 2014 in English and held by 469 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Bernie, as he prefers to be called, first wrote about miracles when he was a practicing surgeon and pioneered Exceptional Cancer Patients, a groundbreaking synthesis of group, individual, dream, and art therapy that provided patients with a "carefrontation." His safe and loving approach facilitated patients' awareness of their own physical, spiritual, and psychological healing potential. Compiled during his more than thirty years of practice, speaking, and teaching, the stories here are riveting, warm, and belief-expanding. Their subjects include a girl whose baby brother helped her overcome anorexia, a woman whose cancer helped her heal by teaching her to stand up for herself, and even a family who were saved from a burning house by bats. Without diminishing the reality of pain and hardship, they show real people turning crisis into blessing by responding to adversity in ways that empower and heal. Their stories offer readers the same opportunity"--

The art of healing : uncovering your inner wisdom and potential for self-healing by
Bernie S Siegel(
Book
)
10 editions published between 2013 and 2015 in 4 languages and held by 408 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"In 1979, 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 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 found and shared the fact that while patients might need antibiotics, surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, their bodies also want to heal. 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 why we are sick to treatment decisions and communications 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"--

Faith, hope & healing Inspiring Lessons Learned from People Living with Cancer "Bernie Siegel is one of the greatest healers of our time. The stories he shares in Faith, Hope, and Healing demonstrate the healing effect of treating cancer not just with conventional medicine but by changing the way you think about your disease, the way you act toward those who love and care for you, and the way you feel about yourself. The mind is the most powerful tool you have for fighting back."--Deepak Chopra, author of Jesus: A Story of Enlightenment Praise for Bernie Siegel for Prescriptions for Living "Bernie Siegel is a brilliant beacon broadcasting a message of hope. When high-tech medicine is supplemented with love and compassion, we have not only curing but also healing, which is what Siegel's message is all about." -Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Healing Words for Help Me to Heal "If you or a loved one have to go through major medical care ... this book can be ... life-saving and soul-saving." -Andrew Weil, M.D., the New York Times bestselling author of Spontaneous Healing and Eight Weeks to Optimum Health for 365 Prescriptions for the Soul "Bernie Siegel dispenses spiritual medicine that's good for you, and feels good too! I highly recommend these daily doses of eternal wisdom." -Marianne Williamson, author of Everyday Grace "Bernie is one of the world's most respected doctors. I would pay close attention to any prescription he offers. I read from this each day." -Wayne Dyer, author of Getting in the Gap "Dr. Siegel's soul medicine is dispensed in perfect doses to uplift, inspire, enlighten, and heal you. As always, Bernie's wisdom and love gave me goosebumps, or should I say god-bumps. Buy a carton of this medicine-in-a-book and administer it to everyone you love." -Joan Borysenko, Ph. D., author of Inner Peace for Busy People for Love, Magic, and Mudpies "Dr. Bernie Siegel has been my mentor and friend for many years. His wisdom has been a beacon of healing and humor. Love, Magic, and Mudpies is as funny, wise, and practical as its magical author. Every parent needs this book." -Christiane Northrup, M.D., author of Mother-Daughter Wisdom "Love, Magic, and Mudpies is a wonderful, wise, and very funny antidote to the No-Parent-Is-Perfect-Enough school of parenting. Bernie Seigel's delightful new book could only have been written by a seasoned father and grandfather who is also a pioneer of holistic medicine." -Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D., author of Kitchen Table Wisdom "Dr. Bernie Siegel is a living demonstration of the healing power of commitment, compassion, and love. What he offers the world in Love, Magic, and Mudpies is a testimony of his wisdom. No matter what ails you, a dose of Bernie Siegel and his work is sure to work magic in your soul." -Iyanla Vanzant, author of One Day My Soul Just Opened Up for Peace, Love & Healing "Bernie Siegel [is] a doctor who loves. In this age of massive, impersonal medical technology, his advocacy of human caring is a necessity." -Larry LeShan, Ph. D., author of Cancer as a Turning Point "I was enthralled with this book. [This] truly great book ... combines sound thought with captivating humor." -Norman Vincent Peale
