Story Behind The Book
The book grew out of a long-term curiosity over what might have been happening while Moses was on the mountain, alone and fasting. This led me into the study of kabbalah and Jewish mysticism. I found that the paradigm of the Tree of Life fit the pattern of healing I had been following during many years of personal illness, though I had not realized that this was a well-known pattern, known since ancient times. My study of the Tree of Life included all the forms of natural physical healing which I have been researching and experimenting with for over thirty years.
