Sandy Newbigging - Calm Cure: Heal the Hidden Conflicts Causing Health Conditions and Persistent Life Problems

Imagine our planet free of war. Imagine your life free of conflict. World peace is possible through inner peace in each of us. I am deeply inspired by Sandy Newbiggings pioneering work with Mind Calm, Body Calm and now Calm Cure.

ROBERT HOLDEN, AUTHOR OF SHIFT HAPPENS! AND HAPPINESS NOW!

Calm Cure is a beautiful oasis of relief for the restless and frustrated mind, as it brings about resolution to the hidden conflicts that keep us from living in harmony, happiness and peace. Reading it is a gift to your spirit and will lead you to creating all that your heart truly desires.

SONIA CHOQUETTE, AUTHOR OF YOUR 3 BEST SUPER POWERS

Sandy shows that once we remove our inner conflict we are better able to have great relationships, success in our careers, an abundance of money, more time and even impact the wider world in a more honest, real and powerful way. I wholeheartedly recommend this book!

DAVID HAMILTON, AUTHOR OF HOW YOUR MIND CAN HEAL YOUR BODY

In todays changing world this is a must-read for those committed to living a peaceful, grounded life.

REBECCA CAMPBELL, AUTHOR OF LIGHT IS THE NEW BLACK AND RISE SISTER RISE

Sandy encourages us to stop fighting ourselves and to stop fighting life. The inner peace that this leads to will manifest as outer peace in both our physical bodies and the wider world. What could be more relevant nowadays than that?

CHARLIE MORLEY, AUTHOR OF DREAMS OF AWAKENING

Calm Cure introduces you to exceptional tools to stimulate healing of your mind, body and soul.

PHIL PARKER, AUTHOR OF THE LIGHTNING PROCESS

Sandy does it again, but more deeply and profoundly than ever before. This book gets to the heart of the matter and allows you to go deeper into your true natural state of beingness, and becoming free of emotional and physical conflict. Thank you, Sandy, for sharing your profound knowledge; the world needs to read this book!

JOSEPH CLOUGH, AUTHOR OF BE YOUR POTENTIAL

Calm Cure guides us to release what we are convinced that we want in order to receive so much more of what we actually need. Theres an abundance and a flow that wants to move through us and inform our actions, and Sandy shows us the way to unlock it.

MEGGAN WATTERSON, AUTHOR OF REVEAL AND HOW TO LOVE YOURSELF

I love the shift that Sandy talks about in Calm Cure, moving from the fix it perspective to the peace with perspective. Most of the stress we experience is around the pressure we put on ourselves to control or change a situation. Sandys technique is straightforward and his outlook on life is soothing. The world needs more calm and this could be the book to help you get there.

ABBY WYNNE, AUTHOR OF HOW TO BE WELL

What I love about Sandy is his passion and commitment to helping others heal and reconnect to who they truly are. With Calm Cure, Sandy has done it again he has poured his heart and soul into writing this book and Im excited for everyone who picks it up and follows his process.

To M.K.I.

If you argue with what is you will suffer. Period.

MAHARISHI KRISHNANANDA ISHAYA (M.K.I)

I first began studying the mindbody connection while working as a research and development scientist with one of the worlds largest pharmaceutical companies. Fascinated by the placebo effect, I began to investigate how the mind in particular, attitudes, emotions and beliefs affected the body.

In placebo research, it is now very well understood that a persons belief, or expectation, alters their brain chemistry in a way consistent with what they expect to happen. Even placing attention on any part of the body will activate the corresponding brain region, which then sends signals to the part of the body being focused upon. In a real sense, energy flows where attention goes.

It is also now well known that focusing the mind on the breath during meditation causes physical changes in brain matter and turns activity up or down in over 1,500 genes. A feeling of love can flood the arteries with oxytocin, a cardioprotective hormone that can reduce blood pressure. On the other hand, focusing on things that annoy us can flood the body with stress hormones instead.
