"Geopathic Stress & Subtle Energy"

my new book "Geopathic Stress & Subtle Energy" is now available!

The first book I ever wrote was called "Geopathic Stress: How Earth Energies Affect Our Lives" - this has been out of print for some time.

The new book is NOT a reprint - the old one was 39000 words, this one is 47000 words. Lots of the original book has been reorganised and rewritten, so it really is different.

When I wrote the first book in 1994 it was pre the internet (at least for me), so I had very little contact with other people working in this field. For this book I've been able to make contact and get case studies and ideas from experienced dowsers and kinesiologists.

It's been a very difficult book to write as the concepts aren't that easy to convey, but I'm really pleased with it. I hope you will like it too.

You can get the book from bookshops, online stores or direct from us at our online store at Life-Work Potential. We have a special offer running in the online store if you buy my "Allergy A to Z" at the same time.

Excerpts:
[Page 3] Geopathic comes from two Greek words: geo means 'of the earth', and pathos means 'suffering' or 'disease'. The word 'geopathic' literally means suffering or disease of the earth. Geopathic stress (GS) is the general term for energies emanating from the earth that cause discomfort and ill health in human beings. Because of their detrimental effect, they are often known as negative earth energies.

[Page 134 ..] It is clear to me that if you asked ten different GS practitioners to assess the same property, you would be likely to get ten different analyses and ten different solutions. Surely this suggests that this is just a mental construct with no validity? Maybe to the cynic it also suggests that these people are charlatans, robbing the gullible of their money and spreading unfounded alarm. Yet if the evidence presented in this book is reviewed dispassionately, this conclusion is not so easily reached.
The predictive studies by myself (page 18) and Giulia Boden (page 19) in business settings, which identified accurately where sick people would be working are difficult to explain away. What about the challenge that I successfully met to predict where people with headaches would be sitting in a lecture theatre (page 4)? How could I have known that the man on the TV programme suffered with leg or back problems, and that someone in the house probably had migraines (page 79)? Can the sceptics explain why the local cats all stopped congregating in a garden (just as I predicted, see page 22) once the GS was fixed in the house? What do the cynics have to say about the engineer who dowsed a negative energy line in a park and then looked up and saw all the trees as far as the horizon bending away from it? (See page 24.) What about the Neutralec Neutraliser that started out life as a solution to a carpet problem, and was found unexpectedly to be beneficial for people's health? (See page 113.) The dog that suddenly stopped barking (page 15) and the cows that were healthier and produced more milk (page 22) did not know that the geopathic stress had been fixed. How can the sceptics explain the dramatic drop in motor accidents at a traffic black-spot (page 16) after some quartz pillars were placed near the road? The study by Ann and Roy Procter (page 7) allowed for the placebo effect and still produced impressive results. Alf Riggs' uncanny ability to identify exactly where a cancer would be located is difficult to explain (page 78). All this suggests that there is something going on that has some validity.

Geopathic energies challenge our current understanding of how bodies work and what affects them. Michael Shallis in The Electric Shock Book remarks:"Electricity and magnetism can be seen as the intermediary between the material world and the ethereal world, touching us physically but also linking us to other realms of the totality of creation. It is through electromagnetism that we can perceive the subtle forces that operate in those intangible regions."Including knowledge of geopathic energies in our understanding of illness requires a much more holistic view of man: one which takes into account the role of ch'i, the subtle bodies, the meridians, the chakras, yin and yang. This view of man sees the importance of harmony and balance within the body, and also between people and their environment. Some of the frameworks from quantum physics may also be useful in deepening our understanding.

These unseen energies help to remind us that we are more than just physical bodies with a mind, that we have dimensions beyond that which our normal senses can understand. We have an energy presence that can be disturbed by other energy presences, and we ignore this fact at our peril.
