Deep Healing brings new hope to every reader. It awakens even the most skeptical among us to the miraculous inborn, self-healing capacities of our mind-body. Emmett Miller, M.D., practicing as a traditional family doctor for 20 years, discovered that when a part of your body is sick, the whole body system is out of balance. He saw that how his patients thought about and saw life, affected and seemed to create whatever their current state of health was. He has stated that it is not enough to heal the particular illness without understanding the emotional and psychological basis for the ailment or problem. We must heal the entire person...not just a specific part. Dr. Miller has had great success with guided imagery to promote physical health and emotional well-being. He has even been successful using guided imagery to do minor surgery without any anesthetic, again proving the mind/body connection, and the control of our bodies by our thoughts. Through the presentation of stories, reflections, and case studies, Dr. Miller presents his wonderful, deep healing theories that will instill a new sense of hope and optimism into all who read this book.

World-renowned restorative yoga teacher Jillian Pransky came to the practice of yoga to heal herself. For much of her life, she subscribed to a relentless work hard/play hard mentality, burying parts of herself beneath the pursuit of busy-ness and accomplishment. It wasn’t until a devastating personal loss and health crisis thrust her into suffocating anxiety that she stopped racing around. As she began to pause and examine her actions and emotions, she found herself able to unlock deeply seated tension in her mind and body. Since then, Pransky has been devoted to studying and teaching mindfulness practices, deep relaxation, and compassionate listening. In Deep Listening, Pransky presents her signature Calm Body, Clear Mind, Open Heart program―a 10-step journey of self-exploration that she’s taught around the world. Derived from the techniques that healed her, the practice of Deep Listening invites you to pay close attention to your body, mind, and heart. You’re taught how to tune inward and relax into a state of openness, ease, and clarity. This is the new frontier in integrative wellness—mindfulness designed for healing. Pransky doesn’t ask you to “be your best self,” or “do more!” She asks you to “be here” and “do less.” She guides you gently through the stages of Deep Listening, from being present and noticing your tension to welcoming what you discover with softness and compassion. She integrates tools like guided meditations, journaling prompts, and restorative yoga poses to help you regard yourself with kindness and curiosity. Immersing yourself in the practice of Deep Listening will allow you to nurture your own well-being.
