It is an outstanding book from both the scientific and spiritual points of view. it is a unique record of the pioneering experiments which presents clear, electro-physiological evidence of existence of the network of chakras and nadis which form the infrastructure of the subtle energies existing in the pranic and psychic dimensions which underlie and activate the physical, material body of man. the experiments in the book successfully integrate the subjective and objective dimensions of knowledge and will serve as guideposts and blueprints for experiments in the years ahead.

Pathway to Wellness
Pathway to Wellness by Jennifer Fitzsimmons:
Pathway to Wellness is a self help book on attaining emotional balance in our world of tension. It teaches stress management and releasing of negative thoughts and emotions such as anger, depression, anxiety, grief and so forth. It is a passage to understanding our minds and emotions and merging with Soul. It demonstrates how wellness includes wellness of mind, body and emotions and introduces us to a completely new opinion of who we think we are as opposed to who we actually are. It introduces us to another facet of our self that we have been unaware of. For many years we have believed that we are a human body living in a physical world and that is all there is and that wellness relates to the physical body alone. We have also believed that we are not in control of our lives, destinies or health that only fate has full control of all aspects in our lives. Pathway to Wellness breathes hope back into life and gives us the opportunity of a new attitude and a new life. It introduces the other half of who we are and teaches us to embrace our emotions as they are in essence our wonderful Soul and teaches us how to give it all the love and nourishment it needs in order for it to support us on our journey through life.

EDITORS OVERVIEW I found the subject matter in the first of her three-part trilogy to be both absorbing and inspirational. I think that what sets this ‘self-help’ book apart from so many others of a similar nature on the shelves, is the obvious passion that permeates each page, and the conviction and sincerity with which it is written. Jennifer is also courageous in revealing the personal challenges she had to overcome in her quest to discover meaning in her life, and her experiences give depth and substance to the story, and make the reader feel that ‘if she can do it, so can I’. It is obvious that Jennifer not only talks the talk, but has indeed, walked the walk. I endorse the principles she espouses, and feel that this book, will go a long way in helping people to discover, as Jennifer says, a whole new attitude and life, and indeed, “a whole new you.”
