Many years of research efforts and clinical experiments have led to a new approach in medical science that recognizes that the mind, with its thoughts, emotions and attitudes, has a central impact on the health of the body. What is more, it has been shown that by paying attention to our mental states we can learn to control them. THE HEALER IS YOU: Understanding Mind-Body Medicine, brings the subject of Self-Healing to life with quotes from experts in the field of Alternative Health, as well as with personal examples. Knowledge of the mind-body connection, and its role in healing, is not new. It goes back to the ancient traditions of China and India, and shamanic traditions, typically combining nutrition, herbs, breathing techniques, movement, and meditation. Combined with cutting-edge scientific discoveries, these traditional practices are demonstrating that the body and mind are part of an intelligent system involving the brain, the nervous system and the immune system. Although still somewhat controversial in scientific communities, the evidence of this interconnection has led to the field called "mind-body medicine." Author Diane See, drawing on her extensive background, has simplified the essential concepts and techniques of this field and shows how they can be applied on a daily basis. She designed the curriculum for City College of San Francisco called Mind-Body Health, which she taught for 13 years. Hundreds of adults of all ages enthusiastically attended her popular classes, many of whom reported improvements in their physical health, their attitudes, family relationships, and more. Their feedback influenced and encouraged the writing of this book. Among the plethora of health and wellness books available, few are as comprehensive as THE HEALER IS YOU. You won't find a more complete coverage of the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of health in one book. Yet Diane's warm and captivating writing style makes it a fun and easy read. One of her students called it "the best book I ever read!" Carry it with you, or keep it by your bedside.

Diane See was born with a passion to heal the world. Undeterred by the enormous challenge of her goal, she read and studied relentlessly, questioned everything, developed her skills, and refined her knowledge. As the mother of five children, she studied the important principles of early childhood development. She started a branch of La Leche League in New Jersey, and became accredited as group leader, teacher, and counselor for new mothers. In this capacity she lectured to expectant parents at the local army hospital, to nurses at the county college, and was interviewed on a local radio show. Later Diane founded and directed a private alternative school. At age fifty, Diane returned to school and graduated from Antioch University West with a Masters degree in Human Development. She became certified as a City College of San Francisco instructor and taught Mind-Body Health for thirteen years. Continuing to learn, Diane attended over a dozen professional conferences and seminars in her field. After retiring from teaching she completed two books on self-healing for the general public, and a memoir. All are available on Amazon.com. Her next book, in progress, is destined to fulfill her longtime passion to heal the world.
