The foot is a very interesting part of the body for therapy. It is easily accessible and is very suitable for self-treatment, which partly explains why it is used so much in reflexology. This chart is particularly interesting and useful for those who treat the feet and/or do energy work. It shows the classical Chinese acupuncture points used to treat the organs and a large number of specific health complaints. The massage and acupressure techniques are clearly explained. Another approach is also presented, especially indicated for the feet (water and earth): moxibustion. It is warming, it stimulates Chi flow, it fights cold and humid pathologies, and feminine disorders. In addition to all these points, the meridians according to Shisuto Masunaga and their use are presented. With this chart, knowledge of the reflex zones will be completed by points and meridians, opening fascinating new therapeutic possibilities.

When we embrace our inner child, we awaken our natural ability to heal physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Many people do not realize their own power. I did not believe it for most of my lifetime either but once I had experienced it, I felt like I was reborn again.

In my first 40 years of this circle of life, I was often a victim. I suffered pain and struggle to over come obstacles. I had so much anger, frustration, and sadness inside of me and toward the world. But now my life has changed. In The Journey Within I share with you my life journey and how my life was completely transformed in an instant starting with practicing Qigong and using other holistic tools with the healing power of love, forgiveness, and kindness.

We are all blessed with the natural ability to heal ourselves--we can unlock this ability once we realize how to embrace our inner child. We just need to bring that awareness and learn how to use these simple and powerful tools in our daily life to shine our light.

It is my hope that this book will inspire people around the world to experience this complete guide to healing for themselves and share it with others.

Pullum examines the rhetorical genre of 20th-century American faith healing. He first analyzes respectively the rhetoric of Aimee Semple McPherson, William Branham, Oral Roberts, Asa Alonzo Allen, Ernest Angley, Kathryn Kuhlman, and Benny Hinn--the most prominent American faith healers of this century. For each, he discusses their background, the nature of the audiences to whom they preached, and why they were so successful. Pullum concludes by drawing together the major rhetorical features of faith-healing discourse.

Pullum shows that faith-healing discourse follows the strategy of offering hope to the hopeless, giving God the glory, articulating humble beginnings, offering testimony of past personal afflictions overcome, and drawing on scripture to bolster their claims. This discourse is often presented in dynamic fashion, making it not only credible, but entertaining as well. After elucidating the rhetorical patterns of faith healers, Pullum evaluates claims of the miraculous in light of the standard that they set for themselves. In other words, miracles as presented by faith healers are juxtaposed to the types one reads about in the Bible. Pullum also attempts to account for why people claim miraculous cures in spite of the fact that nothing miraculous has occurred in the services of faith healers.

J Martin Littlejohn was a person who stood literally and figuratively shoulder to shoulder with the founder of osteopathy, A T Still. A proud presbyterian Scot who made his career and reputation in the USA, only to have it questioned and discredited after returning to pursue his osteopathic practice in London, Littlejohn was a controversial character. Undoubtedly a pioneer in establishing osteopathic medicine both in the USA and in the UK, he was also a fraud, using contentious qualifications to promote his academic and scientific credibility. No one has been able to write a comprehensive study of Littlejohn until now. John O'Brien has spent years researching the man. Using the objective eye of a professional historian, he has visited the institutions of Littlejohn's life and career, in Northern Ireland, Chicago, Illinois and Kirksville, Missouri, and the National Osteopathic Archive in London, as well as holding interviews with Littlejohn's family in the UK. He was granted access to previously unseen historic material as well as personal family mementos and photographs. This book will be read by anyone with an interest in the history of osteopathy. It gives a thorough description of the life and work of J Martin Littlejohn, with a broad analysis of how and why he took the major decisions to affect his career, for good or bad. And of course the consequences of those decisions, which had a major influence on the development of osteopathy in the 20th century. Key points: * 30 photographs, some previously unseen * Author access to previously unseen archives * Contributions from Littlejohn's family
