Spirituality 201: Discovering the Inner Healer: A Self-Healing Manual for Therapists Paperback – September 12, 2023
Purchase options and add-ons
Will you actively listen and follow the advice provided by your patients’ inner wisdom? Will you use that wisdom to guide them in their journey to recover their spiritual and physical wellness?
The author of this manual proposes that empathy and intention can tap into inner wisdom, which can enhance the effectiveness of therapeutic styles without changing their current practices. The author also introduces the concept of holographic medicine, which considers how collective karmic experiences and individual lifestyles can influence the healing process, similar to the placebo effect. By combining the therapist’s intention with the patient’s facilitation, optimal healing can occur, regardless of the therapeutic style being used.

Reviewed by Pikasho Deka for Readers' Favorite
Well thought-out, this is a clearly written manual for healers, on understanding the holistic, spiritual self, through a non-religious lens. "Spirituality 201: Discovering the Inner Healer, a Self-Healing Manual for Therapists" is both a thought exercise in a holistic understanding of the universe, and a practical self-help manual for healers who are leaning towards an energy-based model of healing. In sum, if one is trying to understand energy-based healing, but comes from an evidence-based background, this is a good book to provide a starting point.

I found this book to be just what I needed at this particular time in my life. I have been on a journey to know myself better and to learn and explore various elements of spirituality. The author does a wonderful job of explaining key concepts without the material being too technical or difficult to understand. I found it easy to understand and immediately apply to my my life and my spiritual journey. I look forward to reading more from this author and if you are on a spiritual journey as well, I highly recommend you read this book. Read from: May 25, 2023 - Jun 04, 2023
Reviewer 1169503 NetGalley
The profound spiritual investigation "Discovering The Inner Healer" leads readers on a transformative journey of self-discovery and healing. This book, written by a revered spiritual teacher, explores the depths of the human soul and provides insightful advice and helpful tips for individuals looking for inner peace and wellbeing. Beginning with an acknowledgement of the natural link between spirituality and healing, the book emphasises the significance of addressing the underlying causes of suffering rather than only treating the symptoms. Inviting readers to start on a journey to discover their own inner healer, the author creates the framework for a comprehensive examination of the inner terrain.
"A step-by-step guide to holographic healing for therapists and the next step in the author's School of Life curriculum."
'"The essence of this volume, the step up to level two in Figueroa-Otero's teaching, is a focus on reaching synchronicity between the healer's intention and the patient's perception. On his terms, "holographic healing" relates to an interdependency of cause and effect. With this three-dimensional approach the therapist is able to maximize the potential of the placebo effect, utilizing the patient's faith and commitment to therapy. This is referred to as the FAITH principle, which is broken down into the following acronym: F—Fully, A—Allowing, I—Inner Wisdom, T—To, H—Heal You."

About the author

Iván Figueroa Otero M.D. FACS, FAAMA
After graduating from the School of Medicine of the University of PR in 1970, Dr. Figueroa Otero trains as General Surgeon at the University Hospital of the UPR School of Medicine, integrating a one-year fellowship in the study of cancer, and one year in experimental research. Post-graduate studies in Pediatric Surgery, then follow at Miami Children's Hospital and the San Juan Municipal Hospital.
Looking for non-surgical or less invasive options for pediatric conditions, Dr. Figueroa Otero explores Eastern philosophies that emphasize a holistic concept of disease. He was one of the first physicians to become certified in medical acupuncture in Puerto Rico, training in traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture with professors from the University of Seville. Eventually he was certified in medical acupuncture nationally.
In 2009, he became certified in anti- aging medicine and in December of that year he retired from the practice of pediatric surgery, focusing instead on a holistic medical practice and emphasizing disease prevention and modification of life styles. In 2011 he was invited to become a Trustee of the American Board of Medical Acupuncture, which is the national body organization responsible for certifying physicians in the field of acupuncture through national exams. In that same year he was recognized by Natural Awakenings magazine as Holistic Physician of the Year.
Dr. Figueroa Otero is currently engaged in his private practice and continues in his role as an educator, trying to achieve full integration of traditional Chinese acupuncture courses in the curriculum of medical schools, promoting that physicians to be certified both locally and nationally, and to establish clinical research protocols on the use of acupuncture in known conditions compared to the methodology established by modern medicine. Another immediate priority is to incorporate meditation techniques and their role in preventive and therapeutic medicine.

- Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2023Format: PaperbackNot sure whether I liked this book because it was a different way of thinking than mine or that I found myself re-examining what I believe to be God’s will. The author did do a wonderful thing when he included a glossary of terms in the beginning of the book. By doing so, the reader has the ability to search a definition right at their fingertips. This book is meant for those who have read the 101 series and are a healing practitioner, my opinion. I don’t think for those not well versed in Tai Chai, Buddhism or holograms would be able to put this into practice. If you have an open mind for Chinese medicine and /or acupuncture, you would be more willing to delve more into this. The word FAITH and the acronyms Fully, Allowing, Inner Wisdom, To, Heal You…..letting your inner emotions heal you….. interesting concept.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2024Format: KindleSpirituality 201 continues a series of healing books written by Ivan Figueroa-Otero. The first trilogy of these, Spirituality 101-104, reportedly focused on who we are, where did we come from, and where are we headed. The intent of Spirituality 201 is to show how therapists can be more effective with healing techniques. This book is written like a text, with chapters and summative questions. It is reportedly designed for the therapist but usable for the lay person. It begins with an 8 page glossary of terms, such as chaos, entropy, epigenetics, multiverse and butterfly effect. The basic premise is that health and disease are balances and imbalances for holographic warfare. All imbalances appear to be harmful, but in fact feelings of well being and attempts to overcome imbalance can also be harmful.
Dr. Figueroa-Otero uses the tai chi symbol, also known as yin and yang, that is, the relationship between balance and imbalance, to illustrate the nature of the multiverse. He describes toxic emotions which can arise from the interaction of people with this multiverse, and prescribes eight types of therapies to respond. Further, he gives an in depth description of the process of meditation, which can improve self-esteem and pacify guilt, assuring the reader that faith is part of the process.
Reading this book as a lay person, I found the explanations understandable, although I regrettably don't know enough about the topic to be able to determine whether the methods described would be effective.
