Pairing the healing and transformative power of symbolic art and focused meditations, Healing Body Meditations is a set of 30 beautiful color mandalas with accompanying healing meditations, all based on the chakras and the natural miracle of the human body. Meditating on these unique designs--which each focus on a particular chakra and an organ, body part, or system such as the heart, eyes, lungs, or skin--draws upon the endless power of the spirit as a force for physical healing, allowing us to tap into our inner springs of vitality and help restore our being to wholeness and balance.
The 30 mandala meditations have been specially created to enhance the meditator’s relationship with his or her own body, ease common symptoms of imbalance and stress, and address specific health concerns, including headaches and migraines, joint stiffness, fatigue, anxiety symptoms, and chronic aches and pains. Organized around the 7-chakra system, the book introduces each chakra in depth along with signs of an over- or underactive chakra and a mandala meditation to strengthen the chakra. This is followed by specific meditations on individual physical, emotional, mind, or soul aspects the chakra regulates as well as meditations for pain relief and energy boost, supporting the skin and senses, and tuning connections within the brain to help with mind and memory.
The book also illustrates how clearing the chakras with visualization and meditation can boost energy, enhance the immune system, and bring a change of perspective to everyday life. With rich symbolism and beautiful artwork, these healing body meditations provide an engaging and effective tool to balance, heal, and stimulate body, mind, and soul.

A wonderful inviting colourful book to help people who might just want some mindfulness or those who love and are fully involved in Buddhism, it is equally open and inviting to all. Some great meditations here.
Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion
I am quite new to the practice of meditating, but once I looked into and tried it, I became a bit enthralled with it. Next came wanting to learn more about crystals, mandalas, chakras, and the like. I am still fresh into the field of learning these things and this book is an absolute fantastic resource.
This book includes lovely colorful mandalas and meditations to go along with them. It also explains chakras in depth, including the signs and symptoms of of over-activeness and under-activeness of each individual chakra in the body and meditations to repair each area specifically. It contains a wealth of information that is easy to read and understand.
I often overlooked meditation, thought it was a waste of precious time and that it wouldn’t work, not for me. Then, one day after reading a blog post of one of my favorite yogi’s about how meditation was changing her mind, body, spirit and life, I was intrigued. I thought “why not?” and went to where all the answers lie - google. After a few websites my curiosity was spiked, which led to me reading a couple of short ebooks and watching some YouTube videos, and finally practicing meditation myself that night. That first practice made an immediate difference. I was excited and thirsty for more, still am! I can now attest to what she wrote. It’s only been about a month since I started my journey of trying to naturally heal from the inside out, and I have undoubtedly blossomed. I have more inner peace, a clearer and stronger mind, more patience, less stress, brighter spirit, and I sleep like a dream. It’s been wonderful and I’ve only just begun. This book has been such a great asset to my learning. I urge you to delve into this book and even give it a try. You might be pleasantly surprised.
Thank you Netgalley and Inner Traditions - Findhorn Press for the free advanced readers copy in exchange for an honest review.
This is a beautiful book to guide you into meditating with the mandalas that are included. Each one is related to one of the seven chakras and there is a lot of valuable information about each chakra as well. Informative and inspiring!
Thanks to NetGalley m the author and publisher for an advanced reading copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
Healing Body Meditations is a beautiful book with some great information and meditations. This is great for a beginner or more seasoned person. Easy to understand.
I received a complimentary ARC copy of Healing Body Meditations 30 Mandalas to Enhance Your Health and Well-being by Mike Annesley with Steve Nobel from NetGalley and Inner Traditions/Findhorn Press in order to read and give an honest review.
"Beautifully written and illustrated, this book is a must-have for all those who would like to have more balance in their lives and enhance their well-being."
Whether you're familiar with of meditation or new to the practice, Healing Body Meditations by Mike Annesley is a great book for all levels.
Although familiar with the chakra system, I really learned a lot of useful information here. The author gives detailed explanations of the symbolism behind each chakra, the body parts it corresponds to and how to determine if they are out of balance. Each section uses clever and well-designed mandalas, thirty in total, each with their own meditation designed to make the most of your practice.
Beautifully written and illustrated, this book is a must-have for all those who would like to have more balance in their lives and enhance their well-being.
This is a great book. The artwork is so bright and cheery. The meditations are simple, but great and are so varied. My only issue is that I cannot mediate and read the instructions, so I have recorded a couple on my phone, which works well. I’m sure as I listen to them over and over there will come a time when I won’t need the recordings. Id recommend this book.
Honest and in-depth advice for reaching your full potential. This advice is presented in easy to follow language that can be broken up and applied in pieces at a time.
I loved this book. I am a yoga regular and I have been to many mediation classes, and this book really helped with my meditations.
A lovely book, with beautiful illustrated mandalas. I definitely found it helpful, as I was just about to go to hospital for major surgery, and the relevant mandalas were helpful, giving the mind something physical to focus on.
Thanks to the publisher for a review copy.
