Kabbalah for Inner Peace offers a contemporary approach to the 4,000–year–old spiritual tradition called the Kabbalah of Light or Visionary Kabbalah. This practice weaves the wisdom of Kabbalah with mental imagery exercises. Through this path, we discover new perspectives, create change, and open ourselves to Spirit. With over 60 mental imagery exercises, the book takes us through a typical day and addresses the challenges that we frequently face – from centering ourselves in the morning to alleviating insomnia at night. In between, Dr. Gerald Epstein teaches us to conquer the inner terrorists of anxiety and self–doubt; to master our financial worries; to cope with physical pain; and to deal with past trauma. The book concludes with imagery to awaken to Spirit and find true freedom.

"Dr. Epstein offers an original and insightful work in Kabbalah for Inner Peace. He presents in a concise and extremely coherent way what amounts to a new synthesis of Practical with Esoteric Kabbalistic thought: We transcend words (a goal of Esoteric Kabbalah) and turn to self-generated images to effect the physical and spiritual healing as well as improvement of the self (an aspect of Practical Kabbalah). Kabbalah for Inner Peace presents a means for connecting to the Divine Other by re-connecting to the innermost self. "

"This remarkable text is an amazing mental imagery trek from the fragmentation of our lives to connecting upward to the plateaus of the life-giving invisible universe – the universe of visionary, virtual spirituality. The introduction alone is worth the effort, but what follows is life-changing."
       – Ingo Swann, Renowned Paranormal Researcher Author of Natural ESP and The Nostradamus Factor

"Dr. Epstein offers readers tantalizing insights into the way Kabbalists have thought about and dealt with the daily worries and pains that beset us. He eloquently describes the tools we need to return to our senses and to root ourselves in our Present. With generosity, he shares short visualizations drawn from his patients' creative responses to restoring balance, patience and freshness to their day. If you wish to lift yourself out of your daily doldrums, do yourself a favor and read this book."
