About this listen

Alchemy is the science of transformation - how to change one thing into something else. In The Alchemy of Inner Work, Dechar and Fox examine how illness, suffering, and disease - the "lead" of our lives - can become the "gold" of our authentic selves, and the key to good health and well-being.

Drawing on traditional Chinese medicine, Eastern and Western alchemical traditions, Kabbalah, and Jungian psychology - plus case studies from working with patients - the authors provide hands-on insights for bringing "the soul of medicine" back into our lives.

The book includes:

  • A simple introduction to the ancient practices and principles alchemy
  • How the alchemical model offers a profoundly new path to true health and well-being
  • An array of practices for removing the barriers that block our own healing energy
  • An invitation to alchemical "dream work" as a support on the path of healing

I recommend this book for everyone who has an interest in healing self, others and the planet.

A fabulous, beautifully written body of work. My words do not do the book justice.

Utterly fabulous

First of all, I found Kim Nemi’s reading terribly off putting: she sounds like an automaton.
The book itself has some interesting bits but overall it is too nebulous and fancy for my liking. I cannot carry on listening to it.

Wishy washy and bad performance
