Description
xHealing Ourselves from Medicine--based on thirty years of practical experience--offers a detailed working manual for applying the principles of an anthroposophic approach to medicine that anyone use. The book clearly explains the philosophical underpinnings of this unique approach to self-healing and will prove to be valuable to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of human health and illness.
"The central and essential gift of this book, coming from this kind of heart-relation with the body, is the gift of returning us to our bodies. Jake Tan does this in ways that can be felt. That is, what we are given is something so deeply more than an 'alternative' medicine. He takes us through the thick and difficult questions of what is actually going on in medicine, gained through years and years of concentrated research. The intention of this aspect of his writing concerns much more than trying to convince the reader that something is terribly wrong with medicine as it is currently practiced. When you carefully read what he has written, the body itself responds and begins to be able to feel more of its own inherent vital forces. Jake Tan fully understands the value of thinking--of real, vital, alive thinking--for thinking is central to medicine. It is medicine itself. (from the foreword by Robert Sardello)
"Humanity is at war with itself. On many fronts, humans are fighting each other in a silent but raging and devastating war. Medicine is a key battleground in this conflict. On one side stand the forces advocating for the full mechanization of the human being--looking at old age as a disease, and damaged organs as mere body parts that can be replaced with other similar body parts. On the other side stand humans who want to advance a more profound, dignified, and spiritual view of the human being and the healing process. In this epochal conflict, Jake Tan has clearly placed his future with the forces that would resist the mechanization of humanity. Jake is bringing an important message that deserves to be heard, especially in a time when humanity is making fateful decisions that will determine the future direction and condition of subsequent generations. Will we choose to mechanize ourselves and solve the 'problem' of 'illness' and 'old age' by attempting to transfer human consciousness into the bodies of super-intelligent machines? Or will we view biological 'defects, ' illness, holistic health, and death as essential for the spiritual evolution of humanity? In the end, you, as readers, will also have to make a choice. May Jake's book help guide you in making that choice." --Nicanor Perlas, recipient of The Right Livelihood Award and the author of Shaping Globalization: Civil Society, Cultural Power, Threefolding
