HEALING--Beyond Pills & Potions: Core Principles for Helpers & Healers

by Steve Bierman

In HEALING, Steve Bierman MD unravels the centuries-old misconceptions of hypnosis, ritual and placebo to expose the true impact of ideas on health and healing. His remarkable methods, featured on NBC's Dateline, apply equally to both physical and mental diseases--and result in delightfully surprising outcomes and stunning cures. An allopathic MD, trained in Ericksonian hypnotherapy and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), Dr. Bierman teaches in simple digestible steps the necessary skills to cure refractory psychological illness and reverse both acute illness and so-called chronic disease. He takes us on his journey through Family Medicine, the Emergency Department and his private hypnotherapy office, and demonstrates how to deliver impactful suggestions during the course of everyday clinical practice. His numerous case histories are eye-opening and tumors regressed, psychosomatic illnesses quickly reversed, bleeding halted, bloodless/painless surgical outcomes, gray-zone maladies (undiagnosable syndromes) cured...and so on. His work applies to every aspect of caregiving, from greetings and good-byes to Informed Consent to brief psychotherapy--all with rapid outcomes and lasting cures.HEALING is already the winner of three coveted literary awards, including Best Indie Book of 2020 (Alternative Medicine). Physicians and caregivers all over the world are touting it as "the one book every patient should read at least once, and every healthcare worker should read at least once a year." A monumental achievement in what Dr. Bierman calls, "the exquisite art of caregiving." This book is guaranteed to enhance your joy and understanding in caregiving and place you on the path to an endlessly gratifying career.

Should be required reading for all working in healthcare!

This is such a gem of a book, not just for healthcare workers and patients but also for hypnotherapists- there is so much practical advice and there are so many insights, which I am finding invaluable in my hypnotherapy practice. My daughter is a junior doctor and I immediately sent her a copy of this book and asked her to share with all of her colleagues. However, the author correctly identifies that the ‘exquisite art’ of holistic healing requires time and energy- and doctors and nurses are so overstretched and overburdened in the current model of ‘sick care’, which makes it very challenging to work in this way- nevertheless, even just guarding against unhelpful messages and delivering information re prognoses and side-effects in a helpful way is a great start, which will go a long way. The book so resonated with my experience, both as a patient (who recovered from what I was told by my doctors was a chronic condition which I would never recover from), and as a hypnotherapist, working with many other people who have been able to heal from conditions they were told they would have to medicate for life. Highly recommended- in fact, this should be required reading for everyone working in healthcare!

Healing beyond pills is a nonfiction self-healing book. It is geared for caregivers and patients who are seeking an alternative way to embrace science while they face mental and psychological causes. It teaches you how to cure and be cured.
The book introduces new ways to look at health and healing. It is for patients and caregivers looking to learn more than the usual kind of medical care. There are many times when the Doctor does not deliver the right information or say the correct words, and on the other hand, patients forget to realize how self-doubt and their thoughts influence their progress in getting better.

The literature isn’t for everyone. It is advanced and intended for open-minded caregivers and those willing to take a step forward towards learning methods that cure chronic diseases, regression, tumors, and so much more. I found the book to be very educational and made for a specific purpose.

I recommend this book to doctors, medical students, patients, and self-healing readers.

lots of hypnosis insights

I am a hypnotist and this book is packed with practical insights. This shows the true power of suggestion and what we can achieve when we believe. The description of the authors process is well written. This book is full of ways to help people and not only in a medical way. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to use hypnosis or heal.
