Cell-Level Healing

The Bridge from Soul to Cell

About The Book

Internationally renowned biophysicist and healing facilitator Dr. Joyce Hawkes blends science and spirituality to show how you can develop your own capacity for self-healing to improve your overall health and well-being.

After a shattering near-death experience Joyce Whiteley Hawkes left her career as a biophysicist and embarked on an intensive exploration of indigenous healing practices. Living and working with priests and shamans in the Philippines, South India, and Bali, she explored the previously uncharted territories that divide biology from spirituality—discovering that emotional, mental, and spiritual feelings can have a powerful effect on our bodies at the cellular level.

Cell-Level Healing invites you to explore your inner powers of transformation and regeneration to attain new levels of spiritual and physical health. With profound yet simple exercises, this book provides a guide to tap your innate healing abilities by showing the powerful connection between the mind, body, and spirit.

Raves and Reviews

"Cell-Level Healing is a remarkable bridge between conventional cell biology and the far reaches of self and spiritual healing. Dr. Hawkes skillfully combines her solid scientific grounding and experience in mainstream biophysics with personal insights gained from a near-death experience and extensive training in the alternative healing arts. Hawkes beautifully demonstrates how science and spirituality can peacefully coexist and inform each other in beneficial and refreshing ways."
—Dean Radin, PhD, senior scientist, Institute of Noetic Sciences

"Cell-Level Healing is quite simply the whole exciting truth about how and why our consciousness is key to our physical health and well-being."
—Christiane Northrup, MD, author of Mother-Daughter Wisdom, The Wisdom of Menopause, and Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom

"Cell-Level Healing is a remarkable book. It provides the reader with a poetic and visual text on self-healing and demonstrates how science and spirituality need not be opponents but can serve as allies in the reader's transformation. Dr. Joyce Hawkes has created a delightful user-friendly volume that can be read, savored, and re-read—one that is both simple and profound."

“Science and spirit are brought together with beauty and discernment in this exquisite book. Joyce Hawkes offers us a vision of healing that truly manages to bridge worlds which only remain separate at our peril. ‘The Bridge from Soul to Cell’ is more than a good metaphor: it links wisdom and science and by doing so opens the way for great healing.”
—James O’Dea, president of the Institute of Noetic Sciences

Joyce Hawkes blends and makes whole our splintered perceptions of the roles of science and spirit in healing. Her beautiful vision of how cells house the very power of the universe, speaks to a greater understanding and the interconnectedness of the spiritual in the physical. In this broader understanding, Joyce bridges the gulf between the tangible and the intangible. She offers up the potential for self-healing, always waiting within us. Her book is both art and science for healing”
—JoanC. King, PhD, professor emeritus at Tufts University School of Medicine, author of the Cellular Wisdom series

“The intrinsic nature of our being is primordially pure, luminous awareness—and mindand body are the unified expression of that reality. Dr. Hawkes’s insightful work brings a depth of scientific knowledge together with the tools for applying that understanding in a way that relieves suffering and promotes spiritual awareness. Cell-Level Healing sheds welcome light on the interdependence of our inner and outer worlds. It provides practical guidance for working with the challenges of illness while supporting our journey of personal transformation.
—Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche, founder and president of Nalandabodhi and Nitartha International, author of Wild Awakening
