Be Careful What You Pray For..You Just Might Get It

With his groundbreaking bestsellers Healing Words and Prayer Is Good Medicine, Dr. Larry Dossey unlocked an incredible and controversial storehouse of information on the intangible power of prayer. Now he ventures even further with a dramatic and important exploration of what can and does happen when people use prayer -- intentionally or unintentionally -- to cause harm.Building on the scientific link Dr. Dossey has established between prayer and healing, Be Happy What You Pray For takes the next logical step in documenting the full range of prayer's power, proving and cautioning that just as people can use prayer to postively affect health and healing, it is also absolutely possible to use prayer for negative and destructive means.With a perfect blend of scientific scrutiny and storyteller's art, Dossey examines the ways negative prayer consciously and subconsciously enters into our thoughts; illustrates different types of harmful prayers, curses and hexes; and offers practical suggestions for learning to combat and protect ourselves from them.
