Synopsis

Meditations to Activate Your Capacity for Healing

Meditation brings you into a deep communion with your own body and heart, but what happens when you are sick or in pain? With Guided Meditations for Self-Healing, Jack Kornfield guides you through meditations created specifically to ease physical and emotional suffering, and activate a powerful capacity for restoring yourself to wholeness.

Join this leading meditation teacher and psychologist for three essential practices that tap the healing power of attention:

Healing Presence—how to use the earth itself as your foundation to support you in self-diagnosis and restoration
• The Healing Temple—guided visualization to your inner sanctuary, encountering the great healer, and receiving the necessary gifts for true recovery and blessing
• The Healing Power of Love—directing the luminous spirit of lovingkindness to all the places in your body and spirit that are in need
We are conditioned to approach healing as an act of control, in which we judge what is wrong with us and impose a change. The way of awareness teaches us how to turn toward that which is injured in us with a caring and fearless attention, so we may open the door to true healing at every level of our being.

With Guided Meditations for Self-Healing, Jack Kornfield brings you three potent practices to bring compassionate energy where it is needed in your body, psyche, and spirit, and to awaken the "master healer" within you.

Course objectives:

Utilize meditation to activate your capacity for healing.
• Demonstrate "Healing Presence"—how to use the earth itself as your foundation to support you in self-diagnosis and restoration.
• Practice "The Healing Temple"—guided visualization to your inner sanctuary, encountering the great healer, and receiving the necessary symbols and messages for healing
• Discuss "The Healing Power of Love"—directing the luminous spirit of lovingkindness to all the places in your body and spirit that are in need.

The narration is unsettling at first... the guy seems too nice in a borderline creepy way. It's just a personal feeling of course. The meditations themselves were good though and it is a relaxing, inspiring book to help you rid yourself of past pain and clear out negative energy.......more

Goodreads review by Jenny on May 23, 2023

Effective audiobook with guided meditations in the second half. The second meditation, which built out a visualization of a healing space, was tricky for me, and I ended up doing it twice, but I liked the approach. I’m going to practice it. It reminded me of the memory palace technique. I’m always c......more

Goodreads review by Farhana on February 11, 2021

This is a very short audio book, 2 hours long. The first half hour is an introduction, then it has three mediation sessions: the first to be more mindful, the second about your body and how it's the healing temple, and the last is about love and kindness. Kornfield walks you through the meditations,......more

Goodreads review by Jreader on October 13, 2024

Listened to it as an audio book. Had some clients I thought it would help. The concept of recognizing suffering is crucial and more helpful than labeling someone as a diagnosis. We have to have empathy and compassion to help others and ourselves.......more
