Summary: I should have taken it easy with the hype
Review: All of the 5 star reviews of this book made me expect more than I should have, and I was bound for disappointment. First of all, this book has got some big dimensions, so, uh, well I wasn't expecting the pages to be so large and atlas like. I didn't get very much from this book, and the problem might be that I am healthy. I do wear glasses though, so I am currently trying to fix me peepers to a flatter lense. There isn't very much when it comes to the eye exercises though, so let me just give a summary so you can get started right away:
-try to relax your eyes, forehead, jaw, neck, etc. as often as possible (you will notice an improvement after a few days of relieving the constant unconscious squeezing)
-exercise your eyes by alternating viewing bright objects (the sun with CLOSED eyelids) and darkness (palming, where you cover your eyes with your palms and blocking out all light)
-palming. I don't know how, but it works. I cover my eyes with my palms for about 10 minutes a day and my vision has improved slightly in just a few days. Might be related to reiki. I also seen palming recommended in a book instructing how to gain scrying vision.
That's what I have used from the eye fixing chapter, the only other thing that seems of use for healthy people is the beginning chapter on improving your breathing capacity.

Summary: This Book MUST be in your library in rehabilitation medicine
Review: I can not imagine a more thorough book on rehabilitation regardless of the supposed handicapping condition. Meir has seen and helped and trained others to assist those who appear to be hopelessly handicapped to participate fully in life once again. Having conquered severe blindness (he has an up to date legal drivers permit) to the utter amazement still of all those who examine his eyes and read his history, he went on to learn to educate others about achieving their own individual awareness of their healing path. Any serious student of rehabilitation and those with handicapping conditions cannot afford to miss this book. It will change their lives forever!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thorough and definitive: you can create your own miracle
Review: Meir Schneider has truly walked the walk. I have been involved in the alternative healing field for over 18 years and this book is all you need to begin your journey of healing yourself. Working with visualization, exercises, breathing, everything about your life and your habits is addressed in this book. If you are seriously ill or someone you love is, go get this book and start working right away. You will get better. This book is empowering, but if you don't want to spend the time and do the work, you won't use it. This is for those who are eager and ready to take charge of their health and their lives.

Summary: You don't need to wear eyeglasses!
Review: Once in a while, I find a book so unique and so valuable that I tell all my friends and family about it. THE HANDBOOK OF SELF-HEALING is such a book, since it is valuable for everyone wishing to either prevent health problems or regain good health.

Author Meir Schneider cured himself of congenital blindness as a teenager, and discovered many ways to optimize the body's strength, flexibility and sensitivity. He now has a California driver's license, and tells people that they don't need to wear eyeglasses! This book is full of Schneider's wonderful suggestions for improving whole-body health (not just the eyes) through exercises, visualization, meditation, breathing, and stretching (among other things).

This book contains separate sections which provide a wealth of information for people suffering from work, music, computer, or sports-related pains and injuries -- as well as heart problems, headaches, arthritis, back pain, muscular dystrophy, diabetes mellitus, posture problems, polio, multiple sclerosis, and vision problems.

I highly recommend this book for anyone wishing to learn how to help their body be the best it can be!
