“Ingerman’s creative, multi-pronged plan for healing is gentle, practical and encouraging, making it a fine resource for the overstressed.” —Publishers Weekly

We may not realize it consciously, but negative feelings can be as toxic as physical poisons, wearing on us and causing depression, illness, and burnout. But how can we keep ourselves safe in a world too often ruled by resentment, jealousy, rage, and stress? How to Heal Toxic Thoughts provides the cure, and it lies in the ancient principle of alchemy.

Many people think that the old alchemists were trying to turn lead into gold. But in actuality, as Sandra Ingerman—a practicing shaman and psychologist—reveals, they were metaphorically working on transforming heavy leaded consciousness into gold light consciousness. Using their theories, Ingerman offers strategies for processing the harmful thoughts and emotions that hit us throughout our day. Instead of sending and receiving lethal energy, you will learn, through meditations, visualizations, and other exercises, how to radiate positive thoughts and shield yourself from those that are destructive. Her methods are simple . . . but they can change you, others, and the world.

“This wonderful little book, filled with healing stories and wisdom, will change people’s lives. Sandra Ingerman is to be commended for she has created very good medicine indeed.” —Hank Wesselman, PhD, and Jill Kuykendall, RPT, authors of Spirit Medicine

“If you sincerely want a more healthy, compassionate approach to life’s challenging moments, this book can help enormously. How to Heal Toxic Thoughts is like a weeklong retreat delivered in an easy-to-follow format.” —Leonard Felder, PhD, author of Keeping Your Heart Open

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Readers with an open mind will find much to reflect on in the latest psycho-spiritual self-help guide from Ingerman (Soul Retrieval), who provides ways to "manifest positive energy and power in your life" with simple, straightforward writing touched by occasional poetic flourishes. Ingerman pulls ideas from a number of disciplines-including meditation, psychotherapy, shamanism and quantum physics-to formulate methods for combating fear and frustration, which may initially confuse readers; it's this broad reach, however, that keeps the book firmly grounded in a number of different belief systems, allowing for a flexible approach. Sprinkled with short assignments ("take at least a fifteen-minute walk a day; it will clear your head and move the oxygen in your blood") and fable-like stories, Ingerman's creative, multi-pronged plan for healing is gentle, practical and encouraging, making it a fine resource for the overstressed.

I bought these for everyone I used to work with. I had to retire due to the stress & toxicity of my work environment. Reading this book is helping in my recovery from the burn out & stress induced illnesses. I hope it will help them as well, and that will take the time to read it, because I'd hate for anyone else to go through my last 10 years.
The book is clear and easy to read with well written practice exercises and explanations. Highly recommended.

Sandra’s work is always so charged with love. This book is a must read for basically everyone. Imagine a world where everyone is aware of their thoughts and psychic energy. I personally find this to be a very challenging work and a book will not be enough for the stories that run in our heads 24/7 but it’s definitely a great start to establish a practice of awareness

I love this little book! It is a gem. As a shamanic practitioner and teacher, I find it very helpful to give to clients for integration work after a healing. The book is full of pithy, clear explanations of effective practices that any lay person can use. I love Sandra's writing style as it goes straight to the heart of the matter without tying you up in intellectual, theoretical knots. This is a practical book anyone can pick up and use and get results immediately. I recommend this book whole-heartedly.
