Hildegard of Bingen`s Spiritual Remedies

This unusual book explains the holistic healing methods employed by 12th-century mystic Hildegard of Bingen. Known for her incredible visions and deep spiritual faith, Hildegard of Bingen wrote five books dealing with religious piety and health. Dr. Wighard Strehlow has culled from them information pertaining to mental and spiritual illnesses and their physical manifestations. The concept that illness is related to a moral or spiritual crisis is evident in Hildegard`s writing and is perfectly in line with holistic thinking today. Dr. Strehlow analyzes the natural healing practices used by Hildegard, such as meditation, crystals, power words or mantras, herbs, and other natural remedies, and explains how they can be used by today`s students of holistic health. HILDEGARD OF BINGEN`S SPIRITUAL REMEDIES is intended as a guide to a healthy lifestyle and is a companion to HILDEGARD OF BINGEN`S REMEDIES FOR PHYSICAL ALIMENTS, which was an international bestseller. With these two books, Dr. Strehlow has introduced us to another aspect of this remarkable woman. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
