Rating: Summary: touching and practical Review: Contrary to what a former reviewer said about this book being elementary and therefore dissapointing, I beleive this to be a marvelous book. It has a magical air to it; Warren Grossman's loving nature actually comes through the book to the reader. This is something I find missing from most other books on healing that I have read (mostly chi-kung: Chinese energy healing). Besides being beautiful to look at and to read, and besides it being written in a way which can touch your heart, this book contains exercises which are simple to practice and profound in their affects! Advanced techniques (at least of chi-kung) shouldn't even be put into books because the reader can seriously hurt him/herself if practiced wrongly (which is likely if the reader has no experience with energy arts). So, the author did us all a favor by making these techniques simple. Much of the book is spent examining different emotions and how they affect a person (and his/her energy). He talks about being a healer in everything you do in life; healing every situation and every relationship. This is a wonderful book for anyone serious about healing themselves, others, or the planet as a whole.

Rating: Summary: Far Out Review: It was an awesome experience working with the author after some traumatic experiences in my life. The healing practices that I learned from the workshops and later, the book, have left a profound impact on my life. I have been, and continue to be healed by the Earth, thanks to Warren Grossman. Spread the word.
Rating: Summary: Strictly elementary; Not for experienced healers Review: The material in this book is excellent, but it is Level I beginner information. Anyone who has read of or experimented with Healing Touch, Reiki, Barbara Brennan's work, tai chi, chi kung, or other energy-enhancing modalities will be disappointed that this doesn't include advanced techniques or show healers how to move to an advanced level after working with basic energy manipulation skills. My complaint is not that the information is poor -- it is that the book is promoted as though it includes phenomenal information on healing. Instead, it is full of the same basic widely available ideas that many others have written about. Its emphasis on attuning and absorbing earth energy is important, but it isn't developed well enough to warrant more than a small pamphlet, and it isn't really new -- it's a simplified explanation of what thousands of chi kung practitioners do every morning. I happen to love a nicely produced book (the physical package) and this one is beautiful, with very nice illustrations. However, the packaging and the illustrations don't add to the book's usefulness. This book might be valuable when targeted to people interested in energy healing who haven't studied or practiced much, but not for anyone who has moved beyond the most rudimentary level. And I'm sorry for that. When I ordered it, I expected to love it.
Rating: Summary: This author is an amazing healer - I went to see him Review: This book is simple, but clear and direct. If 'advanced' healers truly mastered the simple truths of this book, they might be able to approach the incredible healing power of Warren Grossman that is obvious to anyone who goes to see him as a patient. There is nothing understated about his treatments - you can feel huge surges of energy pass through your body, creating massive change in moments that is undeniable. I watched him work on someone else as well, allowing me to see rather than just experience - he seems to actually take the sick energy of the patient out of the patient and into his own body, and then he sends that into the earth. Amazing. Not only that, but I was broke when I went to see him and he saw me for free several times with no awkwardness. So while this book is simple, I know its source is the real deal and what he writes is worth listening to.
Another book that is perhaps more detailed and accurate in terms of the energetic structures is Energetic Anatomy by Mark Rich, another amazing healer. (www.energeticanatomy.com). I have found his book to be very useful as well in a completely different way, balancing out what is missing from other books in the genre.
Rating: Summary: A new paradigm in healing and becoming whole! Review: This book presents an elegantly simple approach to healing and wholeness. He explains the healing power of nature in every day, non-esoteric terms that anyone can understand and use. He makes the concepts and practices of healing non-threatening and available to anyone who is willing to take a minute or two to stand bare-foot on the Earth. Many people ask "What type of healing is this?" Its not a "type" of healing. The book describes how to tune into nature and how to let the natural flow of energy remove pain, illness, or negative emotions. There are many beautiful and inspirational passages on the connection between love and healing. Some of the topics that are covered are patience, gentleness, kindness, and generosity. The book ends with several chapters on what it means to be a healer and provides a thorough description of healing exercises that anyone can do. This book is a book you will want to own and use on a daily basis, as well as a book you will want to give as a gift to the people you care about.
Rating: Summary: Miraculous Healing from Earth Energy Review: Warren Grossman has written a masterpiece in TO BE HEALED BY THE EARTH. His deceptively simple book touches my heart so deeply that I find tears of love and joy spontaneously welling up in my eyes as I read it. Grossman's loving view of this world shines right through every word of this beautifully illustrated book, as he describes how to: feel and share energy with Nature, feel more Love in one's life, develop one's skills as a Healer, and do a most remarkable set of Exercises. Grossman begins TO BE HEALED BY THE EARTH by describing how he returned home early from a vacation to Brazil in 1987 feeling desperately ill. His doctor told him a parasite had laid its eggs in his liver and he had one week left to live... and sent him home to die. Instead of dying, Grossman felt inspired to lie down on the Earth every day, which began a transformation within him. When he found himself healthy again, he noticed he was seeing light coming from all living organisms -- including in his psychotherapy patients. I began to practice some of the exercises with some trepidation, since I have allergies and many pollens were blowing about this spring. I found much to my surprise that my allergies and asthma vanished completely as I practiced these exercises on a daily basis... and this was in the height of one of the worst allergy seasons ever! I give this book my highest recommendation to anyone interested in improving their skills as a healer, as well as to anyone who simply wishes they had more energy, better health, and/or a more loving relationship with others in their life.
