Amazon.com Review
Essentially an all-in-one beginner's guide to self-healing techniques, The Healer Within examines four practices: movement, massage, meditation, and breathing. The movement section focuses on gentle motions, more like tai chi than yoga, and might be especially useful for those who suffer from back pain. The self-massage chapter involves stimulating acupressure points that traditional Asian medicine believe can help heal organs and improve bodily functions. A section on breathing (a seemingly natural process that is often retaught as part of alternative-medicine regimens) includes techniques intended to help you take in more oxygen and get rid of tension. And the meditation chapter provides an easy introduction to various meditative techniques and deep relaxation. Jahnke, an acupuncturist and doctor of Chinese medicine, makes a persuasive argument for using these mind-body healing techniques both to recover from illness and to remain healthier and happier all the time. --Ben Kallen

Product Description
Release your natural powers for healing, endurance, and longevity

With this revolutionary guide, you will learn four simple and remarkably effective techniques to release your natural powers for healing. The methods--gentle movement, self-applied massage, breathing exercises, and meditation--are drawn from the ancient Chinese healing system of Qigong (Chi Kung) and are easily adaptable to every lifestyle. You can practice them almost anywhere--in the car, in line at the bank, at your desk, while walking, even in bed. Using these methods for as little as ten minute a day can dramatically increase you endurance, vitality, and longevity. Self-care has never been so easy!

1 out of 5 stars The Healer Within   December 28, 2008
This book was written in 1997 - I guess that's my main complaint. It's very comprehensive and a little too wordy. I was looking for more advanced and current information. It's encouraging if you are a beginner and just discovering Tradtional Chinese Medicine but it was too simplistic for me.

5 out of 5 stars Read to be healthy and live longer.   April 3, 2006
 16 out of 16 found this review helpful

There's no question that Jahnke's book can be beneficial to anyone. So many easy exercises are described in the book, including breathing exercises, meditation,visualization, self-healing, and Qigong movements. I especially enjoy doing the flowing motion exercise. Jahnke states that the Chinese people say if you do this exercise 100 times a day you will be healthy for a long time. I enjoy doing it daily. It's fun and I feel I'm really improving my health. I also enjoyed the reflexology described in the book. I enjoy massaging the hands and feet. Certain areas on the hands and feet respond to different organs in the body. He also speaks of the importance of laughter in the healing process. He explains how the Cancer Recovery Society in Shanghai makes laughter top priority in social oncology. Yes, laughter certainly is good medicine and it is reinforced in this book. The book provides examples of ill people who have used various healing methods described in "The Healer Within," and how they benefited from them. Mind/Body Medicine is something we should all be aware of and practice to stay well and live longer. I found this book to be a "gem" and often refer to it. It is filled with wisdom, health benefits and a wealth of healthy exercises. I highly recommend this book!

3 out of 5 stars The Healer Within   July 26, 2005
 14 out of 17 found this review helpful

The Healer Within is more philosophical than a modus operandi but, the breathing techniques & postures are fairly easy to learn and practice. If you have ever ever been exposed to martial arts, Tai Chi, or Eastern Philosophy it will be a fairly simply read and you could skip over some of the semantics and go straight to the exercises however, if not, then you will probably want to study it in depth. It's a little dry at first but, a good resource in general.


5 out of 5 stars Group Generated "QI" Field   November 23, 2004

If you are interested in healing yourself, this book should be one of your collections.
Simple exercises in this book , in fact, are awaress of your daily activites. Nothing to lose if you follow that way.
It at teast, improves your inert unbalanced postures during daytime.
I like most is the chapter 13, What could be.
When he mentioned World Largest medicineless Hospital , chilel qigong. near Beijing.
This group is an example of Group Generated "Qi" field which scientifically proven.
Just like Ocean of Knowledge, we simply discover the small pebbles or sand near shore, while the great knowledge still lie in the ocean.
No one in this planet knows everything about healing, however, you should be your own expert to discover it for your own.

5 stars for beginner's guide.
