Description:
One of the most common phrases Walter Weston hears when someone makes a miraculous recovery is "That's impossible!" Weston has spent over 30 years making the impossible possible, and shares his secret with us in How Prayer Heals, an in-depth explanation and analysis of healing energy. How Prayer Heals has a definite religious focus (the author is a Methodist minister, after all) but at no point does he insist that healing is a purely Christian power. In fact, anyone of any religious background can develop his or her own healing ability. Weston recounts his personal experiences and backs them with the results of others' experiments to develop a picture of how healing energy travels between people and how it can make incredible differences in one's health. How Prayer Heals progresses logically from individual healing to group-energy fields--a fascinating chapter on the raising and interaction of energy among collaborators--and finally explores the transformative power of peak religious experiences. Though the photographs in How Prayer Heals are less than stellar (instead of pictures showing hands holding a towel, photos illustrating how human energy fields are detected and measured would be much more valuable), this can be easily overlooked among the wealth of information that this book offers readers who have a desire to heal. --Brian Patterson
