I'll preface this review by telling you that I have a bone spur on my left heel, and related plantar fasciitis, and I've had pain when walking/running for the better part of this last year. I have tried stretching, and some very expensive prescription orthotic inserts. I have been very frustrated with how slow the healing process has been. My husband loaned me this book as a possible alternative solution.

Deepak Chopra coined the term "quantum healing" when he published the first edition of his book with that title in 1989. [2] [3] His discussions of quantum healing have been characterised as technobabble - "incoherent babbling strewn with scientific terms" [4] which drives those who actually understand physics "crazy" [5] and as "redefining Wrong". [6] Chopra’s medical training is in internal medicine and endocrinology. He is a Fellow of the American College of Physicians and a member of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists. Dr. Chopra serves as Co-Founder and Chairman of The Chopra Center for Wellbeing, Founder of The Chopra Well on YouTube, Adjunct Professor of Executive Programs at Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, Adjunct Professor at Columbia Business School, Columbia University, Assistant Clinical Professor, in the Family and Preventive Medicine Department at the University of California, San Diego, Health Sciences, Faculty at Walt Disney Imagineering, and Senior Scientist with The Gallup Organization.

It would be easier to herd cats than to get scientists to organise like that! And if any of this b*llshit actually worked beyond the effects of placebo and greater patient-doctor time, we'd happily accept it.

But if we can only learn one thing about the nature of our trauma, pain, and “dis-ease,” then it’s that it can not only transcend physicality but also time. It’s entirely possible for our pain to become non-local – and exist completely outside of our perceived reality. And this is where quantum healing can really come into its own. Past life trauma is the perfect example of the quantum nature of our maladies. Your past lives hold some of the deepest hurt that affects you from lifetime to lifetime.

S2CID 206607585. For all the good that quantum healing does, it’s still regarded by those in the allopathic world of medicine as pseudo-science – despite many of the clear and irrefutable results that have been offered by those in the field.Robert Todd Carroll (2011). "Auyrvedic medicine". The Skeptic's Dictionary. John Wiley & Sons. p.48. ISBN 978-1-118-04563-3. Physicists have objected to Chopra's use of terms from quantum physics. For example, he was awarded the satirical Ig Nobel Prize in physics in 1998 for "his unique interpretation of quantum physics as it applies to life, liberty, and the pursuit of economic happiness". [105] [106] [107] When Chopra and Jean Houston debated Sam Harris and Michael Shermer in 2010 on the question "Does God Have a Future?", Harris argued that Chopra's use of "spooky physics" merged two language games in a "completely unprincipled way". [21] Interviewed in 2007 by Richard Dawkins, Chopra said that he used the term quantum as a metaphor when discussing healing and that it had little to do with quantum theory in physics. [108] [25] Chopra has been described as "America's most prominent spokesman for Ayurveda". [80] His treatments benefit from the placebo response. [7] Chopra states "The placebo effect is real medicine, because it triggers the body's healing system." [114] Physician and former U.S. Air Force flight surgeon Harriet Hall has criticized Chopra for his promotion of Ayurveda, stating that "it can be dangerous", referring to studies showing that 64% of Ayurvedic remedies sold in India are contaminated with significant amounts of heavy metals like mercury, arsenic, and cadmium and a 2015 study of users in the United States who found elevated blood lead levels in 40% of those tested."
