About the author

Contents

The holistic approach of Tibetan medicine aims to heal the whole person; it treats spiritual, mental, physical, and emotional diseases, often with miraculous results. Janet Jones and Terence Moore tell of their inspirational personal experiences with Tibetan healers. They reveal a system of subtlety and precision rooted in a profound spiritual foundation. The second part of the book is a practical description of the workings of the medical system, giving explanations and examples designed to help the modern western reader understand and apply the principles of Tibetan medicine in everyday life.
