This week on Relationships 2.0 my guest is Tobin Blake author of The Healing of Jordan Young: A 21st Century Spiritual Guide to Health and Healing.
About the book:
Mind over matter. We’ve all heard the stories: A guy is diagnosed with incurable cancer and his doctors give him only months to live. The family gathers, praying for a miracle while bracing for the worst, yet despite the odds, the guy survives.
In June, 2012, mere days before he was set to graduate from high school, Jordan Young faced just such a scenario when an aggressive, stage IV lymphoma spread through his body, choking his lungs with tumors. Every treatment option had failed, and he was spiraling toward death. The thing is, Jordan did not die. You remember that story you probably heard about “the guy who survived” a terminal diagnosis? Jordan is that guy. Helping him fight and heal was an experience that changed my life forever, and the results convinced me more deeply than ever that all true healing, on every level—whether physical, circumstantial, or psychological—derives from love and spiritual awakening. When the patient is ready, the right medication will be found; the perfect healer will show up at the perfect moment; a medication that had not worked before will suddenly begin working; or the patient may spontaneously heal.
Whether you are ill or know someone who is, or just want to live the happiest, healthiest life possible, this book is your guide. It is as much about the power of love as it’s about healing, for with love, all things are possible—no matter what the doctors tell you.
