A journalistic quest that begins with the couldn't-be-more-personal experience of her own psychic surgery, Bryan takes the reader from The Faith in God Spiritual Church outside Reno, Nevada to the Pangasinan Province of the Philippines Island of Luzon, famous for its healers who perform surgery without cutting open the body - bare-handed surgery, where no anesthesia is used, and there is no pain, scars, or infection. Even as quantum physicists close in on a scientific description of how it works, Bryan asks: "Is psychic healing a miracle of God or a trickery of fake blood and cotton balls perpetrated by charlatans?" She goes on to explore how it might well be both. This is an open, honest, in-depth look at the multiple, often contradictory realities of faith healing and the ripples it casts into the realms of physics, metaphysics, spirituality, and higher consciousness. Into this heartfelt first person account of a life-changing journey from patient to student to sometimes teacher, Bryan weaves a parallel narrative full of historical detail and cultural perspective on telekinesis, the magnetic force of cells, trance mediums, miracles, the placebo effect, and the power of expectation, as well as minor and major deities on the order of John of God, Franz Mesmer, Emanuel Swedenborg, Albert Einstein, and Shirley MacLaine.

An Exploration of Multi- Dimensional Realties,
Indigenous Healing, and Medical Miracles in the Philippine Lowlands
by Jessica Bryan
I learned so much from reviewing this well presented and exceptional 210 page book on psychic surgery and faith healing. Most of the info was given through unique and interesting clips of the author's experiences from both sides of the fence. I fell deeply in love with her detailed and flowing writing style and it actually felt like i was right there with her.
I found the quotes at the beginning of each section fascinating and steeped with wisdom. I also found the story within a story enthralling and captivating. I must admit while I was reading some of the experiences my head really started doubting this form of healing art, but, my soul assured me that every word was true. I would recommend this thought provoking and informative read to anyone who has ever been curious or drawn to this quite intense healing modality. Thanks Jessica for this fabulous grand tour.
Love & Light,
