Now Aesculapius Press is dedicated to producing books on healing at the deepest level possible... beyond the body. We feel that the best use of our experience is to publish books and tapes that encourage people to reclaim their spiritual wholeness, beyond the body --

"You will know the truth and the truth will set you free."

"Do not your own scriptures say, 'Ye are gods,'" said Jesus, quoting the Psalms.

"That thou art," said Shankaracharya

Aesculapius, the ancient Greek god of healing, pioneered the use of simple, natural remedies and the compassionate treatment of mental distress. Homer called him “the blameless physician.”

Aesculapius books and tapes invite you deeper into the mysteries of life, to examine thoughts, feelings and attitudes; consider cause and effect; release fear, stress and disease; to remember who you are, to reclaim your natural, loving, peace of mind, relinquish judgment, and regain robust mental and physical health.

Minds mend.
Bodies heal.
Lives improve.
