Named one of the ten most inspirational people of Israel by a top national Israeli news program, MEIR SCHNEIDER is the founder and head teacher of the School for Self-Healing in San Francisco, which offers programs that satisfy the continuing education requirements of the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) and the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB). The School for Self-Healing has helped hundreds of thousands of people seeking solutions to chronic health conditions, including many people with vision problems. Born blind, Schneider taught himself to see and over 40 years developed a pioneering program of healing and recovery for the sighted and the blind, sharing his remarkable results not only at the School for Self-Healing, but also in popular books, CDs, and DVDs.
"In this generous book, Meir Schneider shares the secrets--won through his own movingly documented triumph over near-blindness--of strengthening, rejuvenating, and healing the eyes by activating the body's own intelligence. A man of vision in every sense, he offers a program of exercises that is both inspiring and eminently practicable." Timothy Crouse, author of The Boys on the Bus
"I have been impressed with the work of Meir Schneider for many
years, having personally seen improvements in patients' vision of
those who have worked with him. The ability of the visual system to
adapt and regain function is still full of mysteries. Through
Meir's work, we are finding some of those mysteries to be
realities." August L. Reader III, MD, FACS, clinical
professor of ophthalmology, California Pacific Medical Center "This
book isn't just another useful handbook for those who want to
prevent vision problems or already have a condition; it is also an
injection of hope." Sonia Cristina Tinos Carrocine,
instructor of Meir Schneider's Self-Healing Method "As an
ophthalmologist, I always search for the best way to treat my
patients. Based on the Bates Method, self-healing has complemented
my practice in those cases where our traditional medicine has its
limitations. The best treatment is the one that is directed to the
patient's needs, and the best medicine is the one that uses all
knowledge and not only a part of it. Traditional science and
complementary medicine are tools that should be used together,
focusing on a more holistic health concept." Leonardo Verri
Paulino, MD, ophthalmologist and anterior segment surgeon at
ABC Medical School, Brazil "Meir's method is effective as a
complementary physical therapy for the eyes." Emilia Ritsuko
Yasuoka Assad, ophthalmologist and acupuncturist "Working with
my patients has verified that many sight problems get better and
heal by taking up the right habits. Meir presents us with a
complete guide to do so. He helps us to regain our trust in the
power we have over our vision and our lives. As he says in the
book, 'We all can take the time. We just have to decide that we are
worth the time and that the process is worth our while.'"
Amelia Salvador, ophthalmologist, Spain "It is wonderful how
each new book by Meir Schneider provokes us to incorporate more and
more of the self-healing principles into our lives."--Laercio
Motoryn, MD, ophthalmologist and homeopath "I had the pleasure
to meet Meir Schneider and use his method when I was finishing my
apprenticeship to become a Bachelor of Optometry in 2005. His
holistic approach toward visual dysfunctions changed me forever as
a professional. His concepts remain present in my appointments,
therapies, and lens prescriptions. Meir's work invites us to
naturally preserve our organism and to practice healthier visual
habits in this very technological world."--Fernando Nassif,
optometrist with specialization in orthoptics and visual therapy
"The knowledge and application of the Self-Healing Method was very
important to improve my practice as an ophthalmologist. The results
attained by my patients and with my own vision are proof of the
importance of the union of traditional medicine with complementary
therapies. I thank Meir for being such a marvelous instrument for
my personal and professional improvement."--Ana Cecilia Gois
Franco, ophthalmologist and anterior segment surgeon and
naturopath, Sao Paulo, Brazil
