The Alchemy of Inner Work

"My sincere hope is that everyone will read this treasure trove of essential inner knowledge. This book is a magnificent accomplishment."

-- Caroline Myss, author of Anatomy of the Spirit

Alchemy is the science of transformation--how to change one thing into something else. In The Alchemy of Inner Work, Dechar and Fox examine how illness, suffering, and dis-ease--the "lead" of our lives--can become the "gold" of our authentic selves, and the key to good health and well-being.

Drawing on traditional Chinese medicine, Eastern and Western alchemical traditions, Kabbalah, and Jungian psychology--plus case studies from working with patients--the authors provide hands-on insights for bringing "the soul of medicine" back into our lives.

The book includes:

A simple introduction to the ancient practices and principles alchemyHow the alchemical model offers a profoundly new path to true health and well-beingAn array of practices for removing the barriers that block our own healing energyAn invitation to alchemical "dream work" as a support on the path of healing
