   •  Ways to employ the four healing powers: positive images, positive words, positive feelings, and positive belief
   •  Detailed healing exercises that can be done individually or as part of a twelve-stage program
   •  Exercises for dispelling anxiety
   •  Healing prayers for the dying and the deceased, plus advice for helpers and survivors

These meditations draw on our innate capacity for imagination and memory, our natural enjoyment of beauty, and our deep-seated longing for a state of quiet calm. For all those who wish to become healthier, happier, and more peaceful in everyday life.
