Resumen del Editor

Are you forever rushing around, fending off chronic exhaustion? Are you desperately overcommitted, afraid to say no? Do you have fang marks from being bled dry by energy vampires? Does the onslaught of violence in the news leave you drained? If so, you're the victim of a hidden energy crisis. To resolve it you need more than traditional solutions such as eating well, getting a good night’s sleep, and exercising.

Here at last is the complete prescription to stop you from feeling constantly drained and enables you to live a more vibrant life: the Positive Energy Program created by Judith Orloff, M.D.

Dr. Orloff is the pioneer behind Energy Psychiatry, a new field that addresses the subtle energetic components of health and behavior. Energy Psychiatry blends the practice of mainstream medicine with an emerging scientific understanding of subtle energies, revered by many cross-cultural healing traditions as our life force.

In Positive Energy, Dr. Orloff explains this exciting new discipline and how it led her to formulate 10 essential prescriptions for boosting energy, improving relationships, and combating energy vampires.

The prescriptions are:

• Awaken your intuition and rejuvenate yourself - and learn the cure for technodespair and overload from emails, computers, and phones
• Find a nurturing spiritual path that fits your own beliefs and inner stirrings
• Design an energy-aware approach to diet, exercise, and health - and learn how to avoid the "energetic overeating" that sabotages attempts to lose weight
• Generate positive emotional energy to counter negativity
• Develop a heart-centered sexuality
• Open yourself to the flow of creativity and inspiration to achieve greater joy
• Celebrate the sacredness of laughter, pampering, and the replenishment of retreat - it’s not selfish to take care of yourself
• Discover how to attract positive people and situations
• Protect yourself from energy vampires with specific shielding techniques
• Create abundance and a continuing flow of energy

The purpose of this program is to make your life easier. Each prescription has clear instructions for practicing the simple, powerful exercises Dr. Orloff gives her patients and uses herself - plus, there’s a "Treat Yourself" section to help you relax and enjoy the program’s full benefits.

Following each chapter are Dr. Orloff’s interviews with luminaries who share their personal secrets about how they use a specific prescription to generate more energy. You'll discover how Quincy Jones’s intuition opened up after brain surgery, Larry King honed his interviewing techniques, Naomi Judd recovered from hepatitis C, and Jamie Lee Curtis deals with draining people.

Dr. Orloff says, "We can't stop the negative circumstances of our time - our cell phones will keep ringing, e-mails will keep coming, people will be rude, our children will be demanding, and bad things will happen in the world. But we can learn ways to protect our energy so that we can stay centered in dealing with the stresses that arise."

Positive Energy shows you how to slow down time to match your natural rhythms, allowing you to be fully present for your life. Learning this can make the difference between an exuberant life and one you're always recovering from. Filled with Dr. Orloff's warmth, humor, and compassion, Positive Energy is your tool kit for transforming fatigue, stress, and fear into an abundance of vibrancy, strength, and love.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Orloff delivers her revivification techniques in thoughtful, accessible prose that some may find an energy builder in itself." (Publishers Weekly)

What I needed to hear

This book put so many of my day to day feelings into perspective, and made sense out of things I couldn't make sense of before.

Life changing

I work and interact with a lot of people. Been feeling drained while they feel energized! I learned great strategies on how to avoid this!

Great content, terrible choice in narrator

The content is great and I definitely recommend it but the narrator is just not the right vibe. It’s almost obnoxious. Maybe better to read it the old fashioned way.

Goosebumps

Wonderful work! I had goosebumps throughout this reading. I love you, Judith, for sharing your gift with us. So beautiful, thoughtful and relevant. I will endeavor to practice your teachings daily.

Terrible narration

I think the content of this book has value but I find it painful to listen to. The narration is so awful. It’s like she is forcing her way through it. I just don’t know if I can finish it.

Long, but good.

Enjoyed the energy and lessons. Narrator was a bit distracting. Overall, an interesting book with a few slow sections.

My favorite of Judith Orloff works.

If you could sum up Positive Energy in three words, what would they be?

Fresh, intuitive, my bible. Get the unabridged version the abridged will miss too many details.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Positive Energy?

Too many for there to be one. Intuitive empath references through out as this is the main focus of my current studies. This book will help many if at least to offset the negativity in our daily lives and learn how to put a positive spin on things.

What about Anna Fields’s performance did you like?

Great speaker.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Love that the information is not pushed upon me as is with many ideas but presented and I take what I want and what resonates with me. What resonate with me changes over time and as I age.

Any additional comments?

This is the 5th time I am going through this book; this time in audio format. As an intuitive empath myself, this is a priceless piece of my energy medicine. I learn and reinforce many things every time I listen to this book.

Sensible ways to release tension and create energy

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I have read and listened to many of Judith Orloff books, and found them packed with practical metaphysical advice.

What other book might you compare Positive Energy to and why?

Perhaps, meditation books, but they fall far short of the information in this book.

What about Anna Fields’s performance did you like?

I thought her presentation was excellent. I've read some negative comments for other reviews but can't understand their concerns. She is clear with a good speaking voice and puts the messages across wonderfully.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, its too long for one sitting and I feel one must take the time to let the message of each chapter be understood and practised.

Any additional comments?

This is a book that I will listen to again and again. Probably, at six month intervals.

Excellent Book

This book was recommended to me by a friend. This is an excellent book. Very uplifting and inspiring! Good suggestions on how to do changes now!

Great insights

While I enjoyed the content of this book, like many others, I found the reader unacceptable. She was far too harsh speaking and it was often hard to keep listening but I tried to focus on "content" and not the way her voice carried. The book itself was good, Judith shares some good insight. I really appreciated things she wrote on emotional vampires, this helped me tremendously. The book was not appliccable to myself in some areas like dieting. In Judith's writing about foods though, I found her more knowledgeable than most physicians but very wrong in regards to certain foods to avoid or allow. If you are reading for over-eating issues she holds great advice but as far as what to eat, I would suggest looking into Dr. Joseph Mercola and others like him that specialize in healthy eating.
