John Diamond, M.D., D.P.M., F.R.A.N.Z.C.P., M.R.C.Psych., F.I.A.P.M., D.I.B.A.K., is a pioneering figure in alternative and holistic medicine. His remarkable body of work embraces a wide range of disciplines, the result of over forty-five years of research and clinical practice. He began his career in psychiatry but expanded into holistic medicine, concentrating on the totality of the sufferer, the interrelatedness and interdependence of the inseparable triune of body, mind, and spirit, how they relate, and how all three must be involved in every healing process.
He is a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatry, a Foundation Member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, a Member of the American Holistic Medical Association and is a Fellow and past President of the International Academy of Preventive Medicine. Over the course of his long career in the healing and creative arts, Dr. Diamond has undertaken a significant amount of research into many healing modalities, which form the basis of his understanding of, and unique approach to, the nature of disease. One of the foremost senior holistic healers, he now practices as a Holistic Consultant and blends his experience in medicine, psychiatry, complementary medicine, the humanities, holism, applied kinesiology, acupuncture theory, spirituality and the arts, especially music, to help people overcome problems relating to body, mind and spirit.
Dr. Diamond is a bestselling author of over twenty books, including Your Body Doesn't Lie, Life Energy: Unlocking the Hidden Power of Your Emotions to Achieve Well-Being, Notes on a Spiritual Basis of Therapy, The Healer: Heart and Hearth, The Way of the Pulse, The Veneration of Life: Through the Disease to the Soul, Facets of a Diamond: Reflections of a Healer, and his latest release, The Diamond Color Meditation.
"Each patient is a universe, and a true understanding of him is an understanding of each star in that universe and of the relationship between each star and all the other stars that comprise his universe. Not just picking a few of the stars because they make a convenient story. A true understanding of a patient is an understanding of his total universe. This is holistic healing."
