Mother, Heal Your Child

More about the book

With this "how to" book, you can help remove stresses and strains of all kinds from the mind of another person either child or adult merely by reading short passages to the "patient" in the manner described. These spoken words will generally result in better health and strengthen desirable attitudes or behavior, as with professional therapy. Dr. William J. Bryan, Jr.'s exuberant praise in the first edition's foreword, included here, testifies to the importance of this innovative method for providing preventative health care saying the book is "a sort of mental vaccination against many of the traumas and mental diseases to which children are susceptible." He also pointed out the book's value to professionals "who may wish to brush up on their semantics and reword some of their direct suggestions." Although most of the explanatory wording is directed toward mothers, the therapeutic passages are designed to apply equally to anyone. To make the book easier to use in dim lighting, as is beneficial in some cases for consideration of the "patient," the print is enlarged in selections to be read aloud.
