THE EMOTIONAL ROOTS OF CHRONIC ILLNESS by Jerry M. Kantor

As ever with many of these books the subtitle is descriptive and helpful: Homeopathy for Existential Stress. Homeopathy is a bit of a specialist subject, but I think this book is very useful and it’s something that most Cygnus members would be sympathetic to. Existential stress must be at epidemic levels now and these homeopathic interventions strike me as very good routes into working with stress, using more subtle energetic channels. The book explains a lot about homeopathy and puts it into context and it ends up being an invaluable guide to alternative healing modalities in general – the author is a qualified acupuncturist as well as a homeopath. The text is really intriguing and the author discusses some fascinating philosophical issues, as well as providing practical remedies.
