Prayer Is Good Medicine

PRAYER IS GOOD MEDICINE is a primer for using prayer as a healing tool. Dr. Larry Dossey defines the spiritual connection between prayer, health, and healing, while building on the years of research that made his 1993 book, HEALING WORDS, a groundbreaking bestseller. In PRAYER IS GOOD MEDICINE, Dossey teaches simple, practical methods for including prayer in his reader`s daily life, regardless of religion or belief system. He illustrates his points with numerous anecdotes about patients and friends who have used his system to find peace, serenity and guidance through prayer. An entire section is dedicated to The Evidence, where Dossey recounts numerous scientific studies and the personal stories of some great contemporary spiritual leaders, such as Ghandi and the Dalai Lama, to support his claims. Dossey is an excellent communicator; his writing is direct and heartfelt, with little metaphysical jargon to obscure his meaning. PRAYER IS GOOD MEDICINE is ideal for any person seeking a connection to the divine on his or her own terms, without the dogma or commitment to a specific religious tradition.
