Cyndi Dale
Cyndi Dale introduces her revolutionary Four Pathways chakric method and goes where no alternative healer has gone before. Using the chakras, the points of light energy in our bodies that act as doors to different layers of awareness, she describes how to approach cancer through material, supernatural, magical, and love pathways. Followed one at a time or all at once, these pathways offer an alternative to a solely physical application of traditional Western medicine. In this book about shifting the way we think about and live with illness, Cyndi Dale presents an entirely new process of healing by embracing wholeness.

Donald Van Howten
Van Howten teaches bodywork at the Ayurvedic Institute in Albuquerque in New Mexico. He teaches that we all have holding patterns that are habitual, so that they leave an historical imprint on the membranes of the body. These membranes store our actions, experiences, emotions, and beliefs. They in turn represent our impressions of life in a "hard copy" of flesh. This book takes the Eastern wisdom of Ayurveda and combines it with a version of the Western medical model to create a powerful new recipe for healing the mind, the emotions and the body.

Jennifer Workman
A dietician and founder of Balanced Approach, a nutritional consulting company, Workman advocates Ayurveda, an ancient Indian health system that offers a holistic approach to eating and health maintenance. Central to this system is good digestion. The trick to good digestion is understanding one's constitutional type (there are three, characterized by certain eating, sleeping and exercise habits) and eating accordingly. Foods are divided into six tastes and six qualities, and Workman shows how one can find a constitutionally appropriate food to satisfy any craving. "Broccoli isn't necessarily good for everyone and chocolate isn't necessarily bad," as long as balance and moderation prevail. Workman also recommends stress-relieving techniques to break the binge cycle, advocates Yoga over more punishing exercise, and exhorts readers to listen to their "natural intuitions."
