Meta-Physician on Call for Better Health

Steven E. Hodes M.D. initially trained in traditional high-caliber medical programs that led him through graduation at the Albert Einstein Medical School and to a fellowship at Mount Sinai Hospital. But many years later he saw something vital missing in his approach to healthcare. I was trained as a physician not a healertaught to view the patient as a machine suffering from some mechanical failure. My purpose was to be the best diagnostician possible he explains. Then events occurred that opened the eyes of this now veteran physician to deep insights about the mind-body-spirit connection. That awakening moved him to a metaphysical view of healtha view more spiritual than religious but still firmly grounded in science. Embracing his role as a metaphysician he also began to see himself as a meta-physician or doctor transformed (meta) by this new awareness. In this book Hodes describes his journey to becoming a metaphysician on call. He points out profound yet simple observations and beliefs that affect our perception of the nature of realitymetaphysicswhich in turn can largely affect our well-being in all sensesbody mind and spirit. We all can and should take responsibility for our own well-being on all levels he explains. This book is designed to inspire us to ask our own questions and gather our own evidence to enhance all areas of our lives and well-being and so find healing and peace.
