Reader ReviewsWith just the right balance of theory and real-world experience, Dr. Jill Henry's Energy SourceBook flows just as the energy it helps us to tap into. Chock full of information, the book guides readers to achieve a state of well being by feeling the "flow" and working with it, balancing personal energy for a healthier body, mind and spirit. The writing style is very accessible to both layperson and practitioner. Dr. Henry's warmth and spirit are evident as she speaks directly to the reader and shares her own personal experiences as well as her knowledge of the topics. In her own words, this book is "a sharing of practical, `how to' information to transform your inner world and then see the transformations occur in your outer world." I found it to be exactly that and more. In the Introduction to Energy SourceBook, Dr. Henry states, a "Well Being" is a person whose essence has risen from the depths to the surface and now flows naturally forth in health and prosperity, to live life with skill and thankfulness. The energy of Well Being is capable of transforming fear into love, illness into wellness, isolation into unity, and work into calling. Well Being enables you, and me, to cope with and effect change in our lives, and to improve the quality of not only our own lives, but also the lives of people around us." Throughout the book, we are guided to develop our own skills for accessing, increasing and balancing the underlying flow of energy that creates well being. Energy SourceBook offers a graceful introduction to such esoteric topics as Meditation and Relaxation, the Chakras, the Five Elements and Feng Shui. It is a must-read for anyone with an interest in the healing arts, whether personal or professional. This is a practical guide - a true SourceBook as the name indicates. I was pleasantly surprised by how much information was included in the book's approximately 200 pages. There are many references to the work of other scholars and practitioners, complied in a way that flows, connecting topics in an easy, synergistic manner. Energy SourceBook incorporates tools, techniques and practices, including several easy-to follow exercises (which I have a tendency to skip over in other books!). In this case, the exercises are well worth the bit of self-reflection and effort required. Dr. Henry's writing style is both clear and concise. Just as valuable when approached one topic at a time as when the book is read as a whole, there are no "rules" for using this book. The chapters are short and the material organized in a manner that makes it easy to use for reference. Charts are included to highlight important points, and there is an interesting introduction to and summary of each topic. The bibliography is a great starting point for further exploration. Dr. Henry provides brief, helpful descriptions of each of the books, organizations and other resources she references. Energy Sourcebook, and the exercises within, can be viewed as an exploration, an adventure into personal Well Being. I highly recommend this little gem of a book. Keep it with you on your journey!
