"Beery doesn't have a choice! The Anaconda welcomed yet challenged him to account for his own spiritual awakening. And still demands he assist the planet in the unfolding of higher resonance. Peering into the jaws of unknown encumbrances, Beery keeps course and has written an access-way for all of us to evolve. Whether it's an intuitive exploration of the "otherness" of extra-dimensional activity or a perceptual shift of enlightenment, Beery cascades his energies to coalesce understanding. He writes in an accessible tone, yet don't mistake this as a dimming of intensity for general readers: Beery imparts empowerment." |

I shared a lot of laughter of this kind with Itzhak Beery over the many years of our friendship.

“There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” So, says, Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Modern “rational” science has yet to look in to the depth which Shamans have for millennia explored by looking first inside themselves and their discovering, as A Course in Miracles says, “All sickness is mental illness. All sickness is an illusion and all healing is the release from fear.” Thank you Itzhak, for writing such a clear and easy to read exposition. |

Thank you Itzhak for this brilliant contribution to the evolution and balance of the health systems on our planet." “Our ancestors knew that mending a soul or a broken heart was as vital to our health as setting a broken bone. Itzhak Beery’s wonderful book, Shamanic Healing perfectly illustrates how these ancient approaches are still incredibly effective for restoring vitality, harmony, balance, and health.
