Peace, Love and Healing Audiobook Summary
A classic of patient empowerment, Peace, Love & Healing offered the revolutionary message that we have an innate ability to heal ourselves. Now proven by numerous scientific studies, the connection between our minds and our bodies has been increasingly accepted as fact throughout the mainstream medical community. In a new introduction, Dr. Bernie Siegel highligths current research on the relationships among consciousness, psychosocial factors, attitude and immune function.
“Love and peace of mind do protect us,” Siegel writes. “They allow us to overcome the problems that life hands us. They teach us to survive…to live now…to have the courage to confront each day.”

picked up this book in 2007 when my dad was dying of cancer along with a bunch of other books on grieving, loss and death. I had read his other book Love, Medicine and Miracles. However, I didn't read it. I bought it to give to my dad, but he didn't need it. He had put his affairs in order and he had made up his mind about how he wanted to exit his life. It stayed on my shelf, until this year. My husband of 38 years left. I was devastated by the loss of my life partner, someone I thought I would grow old and die with. I did wonder if it was worth going on. This book caught my eye as I was sorting and tossing the "stuff" of my life. I sat and read it. I am glad I did. This book is very different from Love, Medicine, and Miracles. I think that it has broad application for all life-transforming changes and experiences, not just cancer or other diseases, but divorce or disability--any loss that significantly alters your life as you know it. While it does not claim to have any "magic bullets" that will provide the "antidote to anguish" it is ultimately a very inspirational blueprint which exhorts the reader to "take responsibility for every aspect of your life. To own your life, to live it authentically from the heart." Very important stuff in here, as well as guided meditations in the appendix.

I think this is an exceptional book written by an exceptional man who also happens to be a surgeon with heart. He gives all his patients hope even when things look hopeless as he believes in the body/mind/spirit ability to heal us even when up against all odds. If there were more people like Bernie Siegal in the world of medicine then I believe it would be operating at its highest potential. I highly recommend this book,it is empowering, illuminating and you can feel the love ooze from the pages. There are also four meditations at the end of the book.

You don't have to be suffering from a serious illness to get something good out of this book. I thought it was wonderful and gives people permission to be who they truly are. He also dispels the idea that just because our mental and emotional health play into our overall health does not mean we are failures because we get sick. His point is that we need to live life to the fullest with all it's ups and downs. That is our job. That is what we are here to do.

This was still good, and worth reading, but not the 'blow me away awesome!' of Love, Medicine and Miracles.There was a touch more preachiness in this book (which is always difficult to avoid, especially when people are tracking you down in their droves for your advice), and it wasn't as raw and personal as Bernie's first book.But still lots of good scientific research for anyone interested in the proof behind a more God-based holistic view of health.

Beautiful book, lovely man.This book validated all the personal theories I had about the power of the body-mind connection to heal a person. Wonderful real-life examples of miracles witnessed first-hand.Over the years, I have bought dozens of copies to give to my patients -- best example of hope I can give for anyone dealing with a serious health crisis. Thank you, Bernie!

As healing and loving as LOVE, MEDICINE AND MIRACLES. He takes great care to point out that some people interpreted his first book to mean that people make themselves sick, and he wanted to correct that thought.Or at least the GUILT that people feel when they are sick, thinking they did something to cause or deserve it.This man is a true mensch!

Dr. Brown recommends anything by Bernie Siegel, whom she quotes in "Addiction Is the Symptom." She sees parallels between the healing she's been witnessing in her clients for many years and the "remarkable recoveries" of Siegel's cancer patients.

Dr Siegel's theology is a little different from mine. Yet he has some wonderful advice of how to fight cancer. I'm glad his books were available to help me in my cancer battle.
