A Physician's Journey

In A Physician's Journey: Yoga and Meditation to Holistic Medicine, Dr. Dennis K. Chernin shares his unique path of blending Western medical training with ancient spiritual practices. Grounded in case studies from his clinical experience, Dr. Chernin integrates yoga-based paradigms—chakras, koshas, and raja yoga—into a comprehensive view of human health. He explores diverse healing methods including Ayurveda, nutrition, hatha yoga, tai chi, meditation, and homeopathy. This book also offers a step-by-step guide to meditation inspired by Swami Rama, while comparing it with other traditions such as Taoist, Jewish, and devotional practices like kirtan. A thoughtful and practical resource for anyone interested in holistic wellness, spiritual development, or integrative healthcare.
