GETTING READY Preparing for Surgery, Chemotherapy, and Other Treatments

Surgeon, professor, bestselling author, and alternative-therapy guru extraordinaire Bernie Siegel offers a fine primer for those about to undergo medical treatment for chronic or severe illness. Siegel provides his usual insights on the mind-body connection, pointing out in his soft New York City accent that many pathways to healing exist within one's own mind. Listeners may bathe their subconscious in guided healing meditations accompanied by soothing music. Another Hay House offering loaded with worthwhile tracks. D.J.B.
