Summary: Wholeness Bible
Comment: A big YESSSSS for this book even though it is not a book to sit down and read anymore than I would sit down and read any other encyclopedia. Clinebell shakes up a lot of wholeness arguments by writing about the environment as well as about people. He is convinced that individuals do not receive healing or wholeness unless the earth is healed. He writes about pollution and the effects of lifestyle on the earth--the consequences of national political decisions and individual actions.

In a w ay this is a Bible for health and wholeness.

Summary: Passionate exam of seven dimensions of holistic health
Comment: Howard Clinebell examines seven dimensions of well being and holistic health in Anchoring Your Well Being. The seven dimensions discussed are spiritual, physical, emotional, relational, work & play, crisis & loss, and environmental well being.

The book has a simple design: Each chapter opens with a series of statements designed to allow the reader to assess his or her health in the given dimension of well being. Then Clinebell delves into the content with the passion of a lecturer in demand.

Clinebell begins with spiritual well being and offers a number of insights based on biblical texts and reflections. Clinebell's various exercises in the seven dimensions allow readers to practice his insights. The "Baker's Dozen Suggestions for Relational Well Being" are of primo importance. Perhaps most radical statement is Clinebell's contention that personal wholeness cannot be achieved until environmental wholeness/justice becomes real.

Howard Clinebell is a United Methodist minister and a professor of pastoral care. He lectures around the world. I gained a sense of his lecture style by reading this book and found the work practical and practiceable.
