Listen to Israela Meyerstein speak about Bridge To Healing: Finding Strength To Cope With Illness
Picture
Here's what the Association of Jewish Libraries said in a review of “Bridge to Healing: Finding Strength to Cope with Illness” by Israela Meyerstein. (ISBN: 978-1-936778-48-5)

Israela Meyerstein, a leading mental health professional, wrote Bridge to Healing after her own encounter with cancer. This is a useful and detailed self-help book. The book is divided into five main parts: Practical Spirituality; The Illness Journey; A Down-To-Earth Spiritual Toolbox; Guided Reflections and Exercises for Coping and Healing; Notes and References. Each chapter concludes with a list of “Things to Think About and Do.” Meyerstein provides her own illustrations and diagrams whenever needed.

Though Bridge to Healing is principally a Jewish spiritual guide, based on Jewish wisdom and tradition, its insights are universally relevant. A detailed glossary explains unfamiliar terms and the Jewish sources can be used to help anyone who needs spiritual support. References to a wide range of care-giving resources are included.

Bridge to Healing is a worthy acquisition for public libraries as well as for medical-related  professional libraries. Individuals who want to reinforce their spiritual strength will also benefit from this book. Its message is clear and direct: do not give up! When the physical body fails, the spirit should rise to the occasion and help survival.
