Reading Dr Hawkins’ latest book “Healing and Recovery” fills me with awe. His personal story of healing a mind boggling list of illnesses, should provide all the inspiration one needs to heal his or her body. What’s even more remarkable, especially for any spiritual practitioner, Dr Hawkins’ results were a direct consequence of “conversing” with his mind; with only a marginally supportive role played by the medical treatments. In the world apparently ruled by the “big pharma” this provides a healthy dose of hope for all those, who after wandering through the corridors of medical facilities, doctors consulting rooms and drug stores most of their lives, hit a brick wall of “incurability”.

Dr Hawkins maps the path to healing a particular illness, as follows:
1.    Let go of the sensory experience of it.
2.    Stop putting names or labels on it.
3.    Welcome the experience without using words.
4.    Cancel the though form and belief system.
5.    Choose the energy field of Love (500+) that heals.

If you think it looks simple, you’re right. If you think it seems too difficult, you’re right too. Ultimately, it’s up to you what you think. Be warned though: what you keep in your mind tends to materialise. And your body is not immune. Therefore, why not adopt the first option, and see it as the proven way to healing from whatever illnesses and maladies your body is besieged with?
Having read only 1/7th of the book, I can only guess what a treasure of life-changing information it holds. I feel, after reading all seven earlier books by Dr Hawkins, like being finally presented with the opportunity to “graduate”. “Healing and Recovery” underscores his life work so far, and a precious gift to the humanity. Take it, and don’t let your body stand in the way of your spiritual journey!
