people in your life you are attracted to even though your personalities
are very different? Would you perceive yourself as the type of person

to fit in with the wishes of others; or are you always in search for that
one special person with whom you can spend time?
The
Enneagram and Health: A tool for transformation by Denise

Autogenic
Therapy – the best form of self-help by Jane Bird
But can we learn to activate our own self-righting mechanisms? Can we
cause the healing capacity to work at our own command and directive, rather

and even prevent the likelihood of serious illness?
The answer is ‘Yes we can’.

Four
Dimensional Wellness by Dr Keith Scott-Mumby
My quest for some years has been for a model which will bind us
all together in a friendly, cohesive schema. Not only that, but most important
of all (to me), one which will persuade open-minded fellows of my profession
that it is safe to be a little radical; that what appears whacky and weird
is built, after all, upon a cogent, demonstrable and inter-related whole.
