“
Biogenealogy: Decoding the Psychic Roots of Illness raises fascinating questions for all physicians and patients to consider--to what extent are psychological, traumatic, and survival experiences of our ancestors passed to us through our DNA and to what extent must we consider transgenerational transmission of disease in our search for healing. Obissier presents compelling examples to support his ideas and raises questions that future research and practice must answer.”

"In a succinct and easy-to-read style, Obissier explains biological conflict, cold and hot stages of disease, allergies, miracle healing, destiny, the different types of biological programming, possible solutions the brain can adopt, and countless other relevant topics."

"Certainly, the idea that illness is not necessarily a curse but a challenge to change one’s life is implicitly wholesome. Also sound and constructive is the associated thought that all healing is essentially self-healing--the kind of wisdom that has been an integral part of Yoga and other spiritual traditions for millennia. To see this wisdom spelled out in scientific (neurolinguistic) terms is very helpful, and Obissier’s approach and writing style are positively encouraging."

"Patrick Obissier has written a book with a powerful thesis which it is impossible to dismiss and that is capable of changing profoundly the way we think of and seek to treat illness and disease."
