This is a book the world needs for understanding complete healing.

I especially recommend this book for people in the medical or healing fields that want to deepen their communication and their understanding of clients’ needs, in a very organized fashion. This book has real tools that can be used with every single client with tangible ways for every level of healing needed. If you want to “just” deepen the connection with your client, this is the book for you. This book can revolutionize the medical world.

“Sharon Martin is one of the leading emerging voices in the energy healing field. She is both a shaman – one who enters the energy field to facilitate healing – and a board-certified internal medicine physician. Having experienced energy healing and other dimensions since an early age, she is uniquely equipped to present an integrated path that includes both approaches. Near the start of the book, she walks you through a typical patient visit to a hospital to dramatize just how broken the current medical system. She presents compelling case histories, such as one of two women with cancer, whose beliefs take them in different directions. Though she might order conventional Western medical tests for a patient, she equally investigates a patient’s soul contracts and energy. She calls this “maximum medicine.” The shamanic perspective is that the soul contracts with which you came into this life aren’t
static.

The book has invitations to self-inquiry and shamanic exercises: one such encourages you to change the rules of the game. A superb contribution to the literature of the new paradigm in healing, this book is highly recommended for anyone seeking to understand every dimension of their health, and maximize their vitality.”

Given the tremendous advances in understanding the basis of disease along with diagnostic and treatment protocols, many medical professionals are tending to approach their craft from a purely scientific viewpoint. Dr. Martin opens our eyes and minds to see the whole person in front of us, not just a disease. Her holistic approach embodies the true art of practicing medicine beginning with maintaining an open mind to understand our patients. Then, she integrates healing of their mind, body and spirit. Maximize Your Healing Power should be included as required summer reading for students about to enter medical school. Or, for that matter ,any training in the healing arts. For those of us who are already entrenched in our medical careers, adopting Dr. Martin’s insights will allow us to see our patients again as if for the first time.

This is definitely an ‘out of the box’ read designed for just this post Covid time. Dr. Martin’s query to her patients, “Is this the best you can be?” is an earthquake size challenge that is echoing deep within health systems around the globe. She boldly goes where few physicians dare to go, laying out with exquisite order and courageous simplicity a way forward. She draws on her own journey of expansion from the limits of Western medicine into the realms of Eastern wisdom. Here, body, mind and spirit are united. If you are ready, this book will show you how to achieve the kind of deep healing and reconnection our souls long for now.

With deep commitment and passion, Dr. Martin offers us a bridge to merge western medicine with shamanic and energy healing. This gives us new tools and perspective with our health and lives. She asks that we activate our consciousness and awareness (and connection to Spirit, God, Nature), and suggests that through this, we can affect our health and our lives. She offers great questions and tools, which can take us beyond the old beliefs that limit our expression and our health, and also opens us to possibilities we may not have yet seen.

“Maximize Your Healing Power is a timely and informative book offering practical techniques for blending shamanic healing practices with traditional medicine to maximize the body’s innate healing energy and take one’s power back to create shifts in health.”

Dr. Sharon Martin’s treatise, “Maximize Your Healing Powers,” is a laudable, new work written by a seasoned western physician with prior academic work as a physiologist and researcher. Unique in this work is the intimate yet conversational manner in which she shares her own personal journey. Dr. Martin narrates her path from conventional western scientist and clinician to a multidimensional healer. She adds concepts from indigenous healing traditions, complementary medicine, native spirituality, breathwork, and transpersonal psychology. This professional evolution from medical physician to healer is nicely documented including the personal trepidations in risking “coming out of the closet” as a shamanic healer and trusting her gut.

Non-clinicians should not underestimate the courage and commitment it requires for a physician practicing in a conventional clinic or hospital setting to begin speaking about ‘Spirit guides,’ ‘power animals,’ and ‘energy’ to patients.

Topics for which there is little hard evidence in the Western medical literature. Dr. Martin has expanded her personal and professional horizons and understanding by adding new approaches to her successful clinical practice. She gives due recognition to the value that all healing dimensions offer in helping patients and oneself heal. Her process was not one of abandoning Western medicine in favor of an alternative medicine. Instead, she added new dimensions to her understanding of the roots of disease and how healing can happen.

“The matrix provides fodder for deep reflection on consciousness and being.”

The book nicely leads us from her conventional background and clinical education to her examination of energy medicine and shamanism. Paradigms which are extremely popular currently in the West. Dr. Martin shows us the relevance of these and other approaches to her patients struggling with real-world health challenges and seeking a deeper understanding of healing. She provides background and explanation for various healing modalities she employs to create a personalized healing approach for her patients. Patient vignettes from her practice create
clear illustrations of how she came to see what was missing in her Western medical toolbox and what needed to be added to it. The work is readily accessible to both professional healers and the lay public seeking a new approach to their own healing.

The book offers numerous exercises with accompanying explanations of why they were created and how a novice can use them in developing one’s own practice or in healing oneself.

Additionally, the book provides valuable exercises, some of Dr. Martin’s own invention, which may not be familiar to many individuals with previous experience in these metaphysical areas. For example, in the seventh chapter she presents a 3-by-3 matrix she developed representing nine key states of mental being. The matrix provides fodder for deep reflection on consciousness and being. Her discussion of creating healing intention and working in sacred space are important points which many complementary practitioners have not been schooled in.

“…we are privy to real-world examples of how each clinician can apply her approaches as befitting their own personality and practice setting to expand their own toolbox of healing methods.”

I enthusiastically recommend Dr. Martin’s book which brings to light an important new explication of integrative medicine principles applied in a western medicine context which she presents in an effective and compelling text. Through her extensive general clinical experience, we are privy to real-world examples of how each clinician can apply her approaches as befitting their own personality and practice setting to expand their own toolbox of healing methods. There is no doubt that taking the risk to think and move “out of the box” of conventional western medicine will not only benefit our patients but will also facilitate personal growth and healing in the clinician as reflected in Dr. Martin’s beautiful book: Physician, Heal Thyself (Luke 4:23).

“Dr. Martin, through personal stories, shows that Western Medicine can blend with shamanic practices to give a more holistic approach to healing. She outlines a clear step-by-step process, through guided meditation, to take control of the healing journey. I recommend this book for any patient that wants to go deeper into healing, but also for medical students and residents that want to step outside the box and see the patient as a whole person.”
