Book Reviews of Healing Mind, Healthy Woman: Using the Mind-Body Connection to Manage Stress and Take Control of Your Life
Book Review: Symbolism of the Heart
Summary: 4 Stars
The heart speaks to us in symbolic language; what is in it emerges in pictures and images. Every woman has access to the most powerful health care in the world: not a pill or hospital or test but her own mind. She explains how these techniques can be used for reducing stress and enhancing wellness. We all have a secure personal identity, one which spans the full range of what it means to be a human being. The dream is an intuitive way of knowing, speaking in a symbolic language; it is a confirmation of that which we already know. A dream kept her spirits and her energy and uses divine inspiration and creative imagination. This is the intuitive rather than the reasoning faculty called memory. Using Dr. Domar's methods will ensure peace of mind. She promotes the visualization method and and explains the mind-body methods to improve health in men and women.
When our hearts are broken, we often deprive ourselves of the things we enjoy. The easiest way to forget someone who has hurt you deeply is to truly wish them well. You can live easier without them by making an effort to put enjoyment in your life. There's plenty to be thankful for without being down on their emotional level. Dr. Domar shows the disturbed and unhappy woman that life can be better when you're alone and dreaming and playing help out fantastically in the end. You can mourn your cat without cat-calling. She has written several self help books just for women, including 'Being Happy Without Being Perfect.'
The human mind can only think one thought at a time.We can multiplex thoughts and jump from one to another rather rapidly, but we can only think one thing at a time.
