According to Dr. C. Norman Shealy, the
pioneering doctor who founded the American Holistic Medical Association (AHMA),
when it comes to body, mind, and spirit, the whole is greater than the sum of
its parts. That’s because the health of each relies on and contributes to the
other. And when body-mind-spirit is integrated through a view of holistic care,
the whole can flourish.
The Spirit is the life. The Mind is the builder. The
physical is the result.
Dr. Shealy was first introduced to the
work of the "father of holistic medicine," Edgar Cayce, in the early 1970s.
Cayce was the inspiration for his transformation from traditional medicine to
holistic alternative therapies, which he has now pursued for more than 30
years.
Now combining decades of clinical work
and research with advice from the Edgar Cayce readings, Shealy has created a
blueprint for healing that each of us can follow with questionnaires for
self-assessment throughout.
