Total Heart Health: How to Prevent and Treat Heart Disease with Maharishi Consciousness Based Health Care

by Robert H. Schneider

Total Heart Health: How to Prevent and Treat Heart Disease with Maharishi Consciousness Based Health Care Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Brought to the West in 1985, Maharishi Vedic medicine is based on the guiding principle of India's ancient Vedic tradition, a 5,000 year old system of mind-body medicine that maintains the human body is connected to a "network of intelligence" that governs the whole cosmos. When any part of the body gets disconnected from this intelligence, which can happen as a result of aging improper diet, and negative emotions and thoughts, then disorder and disease begin. Maharishi Vedic medicine treats the cause of disease by reestablishing these channels of communication, thereby enlivening the body's innate knowledge of how to function properly.

Book News Annotation:

An alternative medicine physician and his fellow researcher present mind, body, and environment approaches to natural heart health care derived from the ancient and authentic texts of the Veda. The majority of the book is devoted to the body approach, which entails a vegetarian diet, herbal food supplements, exercise, daily and seasonal routines, and physiological purification therapies designed to remove obstacles to the flow of inner intelligence.

Synopsis:

The program is based on the priciples of a 5,000 year old system of medical knowledge from India that was revived in the early 1980's and renamed Maharishi Consciousness Based Health Care. This sytem of holistic medicine is premised on the belief that everything inside us and everything outside us, at the most finite level, is intimately connected. A practical and easy-to-use program is presented specifically for heart disease.
