Quantum-Touch: The Power to Heal

by Richard Gordon, Eleanor Barrow (Illustrator), Carrie Toder (Illustrator)

Quantum-Touch is the touch-based healing technique that uses the chi of both practitioner and client, bringing them into harmony to allow the body to heal itself. Quantum-Touch differs from other healing techniques because it does not require long years of study and presents none of the common hurdles of understanding or application; anyone can learn to use it to become a healer, both of others and of self. In this new edition of his best-selling guide, Richard Gordon leads the reader step by step, clearly explaining how to use breathing and body-focusing techniques to raise one's energy levels. Once that is achieved, the healer can correct posture and alignment, reduce pain and inflammation, help balance emotional distress, and even heal pets. Above all, Quantum-Touch can be used in tandem with all other healing modalities, including Western medicine, and its efficacy has been attested to by physicians, acupuncturists, chiropractors, and other healing professionals.

ریچارد گوردن یکی از پیشگامان عرصه ی انرژی درمانی ، این کتاب جالب که روشیست رو به سوی در های شفا آن هم با انرژی دستان مان را سالها پیش نوشته و سمینارها و کلاس های آموزشی زیادی هم برای آموزش حضوری ترتیب داده ، روشی درمانی/مکمل که شاید در ابتدا یک پوزخند بزنیم و از کنار کتاب و تمریناتش رد شویم اما بعد با اولین شفای سریع برای مثال درد موضعی ای در زانو ناگهان در های بهت و شوک و حیرت رو به سوی ما باز میشود و تازه میفهمیم هرچیزی ارزش یکبار خواندن و تست کردن و بعد ها تکرار و تشنه ی آموزش بیشتر شدنش را دارد و برای من هم داشت و خوشبختانه کتاب را خوب خواندم و تمریناتش را هم انجام دادم و روی سه چهار مورد از اطرافیانم هم تست کردم و موفقیت آمیز بود... خوشحالم بعد سالها مطالعه در مورد انرژی و روش های درمانیش به روش کوآنتوم تاچ بر خوردم و آن را یاد گرفتم و کاربردش را هم به عینه دیدم و مطمئنم که معجزات بیشتری هم از آن خواهم دید ... پیشنهاد میکنم اگر مثل من عاشق تغییر زندگی و ساده تر کردنش هستید این کتاب و کتاب روش پیشرفته اش که نوشته ی آلن هریوت از شاگردان نویسنده ی همین کتاب هست را بخوانید و به قدرت و سرعت این روش و کمک به خود و دیگران بیفزایید ... هر دو کتاب توسط آقای فرهاد فروغمند ترجمه شده و در سایت و کانال تلگرام ایشان موجود هست ...

Loved it so much I attended a workshop

Using this technique everyday now. This book truly teaches a skill we all should learn- nothing to lose, everything to gain, and so simple to do!!

[Greg Menz · Rating 5 out of 5]

This should be taught in schools and Universities.

An excellent and simple method that shows us how to get back to our true selves and re-acquaint ourselves with how to use the Life Force for the good of all. As Tesla said so long ago..." everything is energy, frequencies and vibration."
Quantum touch provides a very practical and powerful way of adding new understanding to that simple statement.

This book explains a lot of the behind the scenes to the type of energy work I have been doing for the last few years. It was reassuring to read more about it and from someone as studied as Richard Gordon.

My rules of reality have been broken. Awesome book.

Before this book was known and available to me, I read "Hacking The Law of Attraction" and "The New Human, Quantum Touch 2.0." Which I do not regret because, with this read, I realized the tiny elements that were touched on that correlated to the topics mentioned in the books, where you send love to the you that has your desired outcome but release the unhealthy attachment of said outcome, as well as, distant healing, which is Quantum Touch 2.0. This is amazing, something like that could be the foundation for two more books, and something like that opened him to more experiences and research. Just an observation and I really appreciate that.

My experience with this is absolutely amazing, I have tried every activity in this book and I am in awe of the progress I am making with certain things I am focusing on, this was absolutely amazing. There is a "beginner" part and an "advanced" part for each and every one of us to interact with and learn from. I always enjoy the writing as well, this was, as always, amazing, reflective, and insightful.

O carte utilă pentru orice terapeut, dar care repetă lucruri cunoscute deja, de mii de ani, de medicina alternativă.
Ideea că noi avem puterea de a transmite energie, că totul se poate încărca cu energia noastră, de la mâncare, la apă, la obiecte etc . sunt teorii susținute și practicate de foarte multă lume.

Cu două lucruri am rămas concret din această carte : importanța respirației atunci când se aplică orice fel de tratament, pentru a nu te încărca cu energia celuilalt, ceea ce are sens și am observat, prin practică, că așa este ; materialele care au fost vii : piele, lemn etc se încarcă cu energie și blochează trecerea energiei, ceea ce explică unele lucruri. Tot ceea ce este viu sau a fost viu, continuă să absoarbă energia pe care o primește din exterior într-o încercare de resuscitare a vieții.

This book is great. It is one of the four books that I have found that teaches people how to feel and move Chi right away. Strangely he uses a technique similar to the one I came up with to get people to feel their Chi. Although the technique he teaches (the one used for healing), I consider to be somewhat advanced. It takes a bit more preparation and practice to get to the level of the Quantum Touch. A technique he learned from the original creator of the technique Robert Rasmusson called Regenesis. Some people will be able to practice it with greater ease than others, much like some people are a natural at sports. They already have a relaxed and aligned body with good mental strength. This may be why it hasn't become so wide spread. The technique is valid and worth learning if you are into the healing arts and want to learn one or two easy to learn technique to add to your repetoire.

On my way back from USA, I had a pleasure to read this book and I thought it will be like hundred of others I read on the matter of healing.
What I liked is sincerity mixed with enthusiasm about possibilities of healing, yet reminding the reader it takes a great deal of practice. It is therefore more believable.
For the healers it is definitely something to draw from and add to own method to enhance the flow of energy.
I don't know why but through all the book I had a strong impression it was written by a woman ;) and then I saw the author name again, no doubts he is a man. ;)

I had experienced Quantum Touch just by chance one day. I had to get the book. I even took a 2 day course. With the help of the book I was able to run energy. I was able to lower inflamation on myself and others. Breathing, intention, resonance, and entrainment work together to assist healing.

[Julie Merrett · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great read

Thank you for reminding me of all the great things life force can assist the world with, easy to read, easy to understand, easy to apply. So versatile in any situation with heart and intention.

[K. L. Laettner · Rating 5 out of 5]

Incredible and easy

I connected with this book on so many levels. I have felt the energy firsthand and can say that I am truly eager now to try it out on others. The benefits are incredible, and charging.

This was a very helpful, easy read. I loved how he described how the body heals itself through raising the vibration and the instruction of how to do that was easy to understand.

The observation between breath and cycling energy is noteworthy as part of the modality.

[Joanna Gawn · Rating 5 out of 5]

"To empower yourself to use Quantum Touch, you simply need to learn various breathing techniques, body awareness meditations, and hand positions." (Quoted from the Introduction.)

It's several years since my first introduction to Quantum Touch (QT), and interacting with the online community of people using the techniques was valuable and fun. Since then, I've continued to use the basic technique, but I've never managed to integrate it into my daily healing toolkit in the longer term! Perhaps Reiki and crystal healing (and 'Tapping') will always come first with me, but I believed QT deserved more of my attention.

So I thought a 'refresher' might remind me of some things I've forgotten, and motivate me to use QT more often.

The book is as clearly-written as I remembered, with easy-to-understand instructions and explanations, and some humorous and cute anecdotes (especially the ones recounting the experiences of working with animals!)

The basic QT technique definitely boosts my subtle energy vibration. I feel that as clearly as I sense Reiki and crystal frequencies, and anything my 'standard' five senses can detect.

However I've never easily been able to manage the faster breathing patterns. That's ok, I can come back to them later. As long as I'm sweeping and breathing, I'm running energy - and that's the most important thing. As the book says, QT 'turbo-charges' Reiki. And like Reiki, QT can also be used with massage, acupressure, chiropractic, and other therapies, as well as charging food, water, batteries, etc.

I also have the two books 'Supercharging Quantum Touch' and 'Quantum Touch Core Transformation' to read, which I'm looking forward to. I have dipped into the Supercharging one before, and really enjoyed working with The 12 Colours. Working with energy is always fascinating!

I recommend this book to you if you are interested in life-force healing (yourself and/or others), have an understanding of the power of intent (life will never be the same again once you do), and want practical techniques that you can use in-person or from a distance. Everyone can learn to do QT - children included.

A five-star rating from me because I believe the information in the book is valuable to me, and because it has been been shared in a clear and enjoyable way.

[Richard Graupner · Rating 4 out of 5]

I can understand how people who have not been exposed to the ancient arts of energy healing can be skeptical in the environments we live in today. I and my family have been involved with energy healing and other ancient energy uses for a number of years now and need no further convincing as to its efficacy. The use of hands for healing is an ancient art, and verified the world over by those who do not close themselves to its potential. Reiki is one such art, and as a Reiki Master I understand where Quantum Touch stems from. In a way Richard Gordon has outlined how this can effect healing in a detail which Reiki simply accepts as not being necessary as one is not healing someone, but simply assisting that person in healing themselves as their own body knows what is required. For those wishing to know more of the detail of how it is done and what can be achieved, Quantum Touch provides a decent background for this.

I recently took the QT courses (Levels 1, 2 and Supercharging) and practicing QT healing right now.
The book is a great hands-on manual. First i read it for theory, and now using it as a reference during healing sessions sometimes.

It's written in this charming and effortless Richard Gordon's manner - deep profound information with a nice dash of humor.. Whoever reads it will find the material of the book totally relevant and practically applicable.
R. Gordon says everyone can be a healer - because everyone already is, he just let you uncover your inborn healing skills and master running the Prana (life force energ)y through you consciously (which each of us is doing anyway... while breathing!

I totally recommend this book even to non-practitioners. Quantum Touch is winning more and more fans and recognition.

[Sarah Coen · Rating 5 out of 5]

Mind blowing, I now can reduce any pain anytime thanks to this knowledge, my health got better really fast. I'm more balanced now and I can increase my energy. Not only does this technique heal your body really fast, it's so much fun to feel these sensations, you can play with the energy, try out all sorts of things. It also feels so good, better than a massage. Incredibly fascinating, my favorite book. <3

This is a great book on healing and energy work with practical breathing exercises and techniques to achieve your goals. If you could only choose one book on healing touch and energy work, this would be the one. Easy to read, filled with different levels of healing and wonderfully illustrated. This book is a must have!

[Wind Dreaming Yoga · Rating 5 out of 5]

Each one of us has the ability to live in total health. It takes discipline at first but by practicing the breathing exercises it can happen... Richard is an inspiring teacher as he uses humour and kindness to get his points across.

I am a Reiki Master/Teacher. I found this book extremely informative and interesting. I have even implemented some of the techniques in my Reiki Practice. Easy to understand and apply. I highly recommend this book. Four out of Five Gold Stars.

A bit outdated. The very deeply buried underlying message is great, though.

Pretty good book but there is more to this picture then presented in htis book do more reading on energy work if you want to be good at it.

[Neema]

i have been experiencing similar things since this summer. reading this book was like a confirmation of my own intuitions and armchair philosophizing. looking forward to practicing this.

[Erik Weingardt · Rating 5 out of 5]

A good reference book to keep on hand as a person practices healing techniques. Definitely a book to read if you want to learn about inner energy and how to use it.
