The Alchemy of Inner Work: A Guide for Turning Illness and Suffering Into True Health and Well-Being

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 disease-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 alchemy

● How the alchemical model offers a profoundly new path to true health and well-being

● An array of practices for removing the barriers that block our own healing energy

● An invitation to alchemical 'dream work' as a support on the path of healing
