About this ebook
We all know how frustrating it can be to do everything youre supposed to do and yet see nothing change for the better. This can happen in all areas of our lives, but it is perhaps most trying when it comes to our health.
Author Farnaz Afshar knew such frustration. Suffering from a range of physical ailments, she became sicker and sicker and was unable to recover using conventional medicine. The Alchemy of Healing: The Healer Was Always You tells of Afshars discovery of her self-healing power, documenting her journey from illness to well-being. She shares her own story of healing and offers a collection of thoughts and life lessons to help others experiencing illness.
She has come to the conclusion that the cause of every illness is the same, making it possible for anyone to achieve relief from any illness by applying the same Law of Attraction principles she learnt. Each chapter guides you through your own path to recovery from whatever illness you have.
You can discover your inner strength and self-healing capabilities. The health you desire is in your hands. You, and only you, can really heal yourself!

and Dedication
I want to start my dedication by giving thanks to Louise Hay for her kind, loving words in You Can Heal Your Life , which I discovered by accident (although now I know there are no accidents) at nineteen, in the depths of depression. My eyes were first opened to the power of my thoughts and my journey of self-discovery began.
I want to dedicate this book to Abraham (Esther and Jerry Hicks) for their loving and patient teachings of the Universal Laws that I discovered years later. While I have read widely and studied the works of many teachers on this journey, Abraham’s teachings have been by far the most monumental in my recovery from illness to wellbeing.
I am forever grateful and in return hope this book can be a bridge for those not familiar with Abraham’s teachings. While my focus is on the subject of health in this book, Abraham’s teachings have been fundamental in every other aspect of my life and the lives of those closest to me.
I must clarify that I am not associated with Abraham, not in this physical dimension at least. I am explaining their teachings from my own experiences and interpretation through the years.
Preface
I wrote this book because it is the book I wanted to read, while in the depths of sadness and hopelessness over my obscure, so called ‘incurable’ and sometimes un-diagnosable illnesses that slowly began in my teens and grew in my twenties. I wrote this book because it’s the book I needed to read when I couldn’t walk, sleep or sit from chest stiffness, mind-blowing back pain and sharp hip pains. I wrote this book because it’s the book I needed when at 3am I’d constantly wake up from agonising pain, but incapable of even getting myself out of bed. I wrote this book for every time I received a new diagnosis of something else wrong with my liver, lungs or stomach. I wrote this book because it’s the book I wish someone would have handed me, every time I couldn’t look in the mirror because of severe cystic acne, for every time someone reminded me I was breaking out (as if I didn’t know?), for every time my specialist handed me a bottle of pills (to magically ‘balance’ my hormones), for every time my dad concluded my skin condition was surely because I was eating too much chocolate (even though I rarely consumed any, and my sister who consumed ten times that amount has never had a single pimple). I wrote this book because it’s the book I wish I had found when I was too self-conscious to go on dates because of my skins condition. I wrote this book because it contains what I didn’t know when I was spending thousands of dollars on ultrasounds, blood tests, x-rays, doctors, chiropractic and physio sessions, endocrinologists, sports physicians, homeopaths, naturopaths, iridologists, acupuncturist consultations, the latest pills, anti-blemish washes, soaps, retinol lotions and toners. I wrote this book because I am certain I am not the only person on this planet who wants reassurance that healing is on its way. Because it may help people, young and old realise they hold the key to their body’s wellbeing. To help you take your power back.
I feel great appreciation for the time you are taking to read this book, and I hope it can answer some of your questions. My intention is to reach out to those who are in the same place I was at. Those wanting wellness, who are not able to find health through conventional pill-popping medicine. If only one person is able to find relief from illness with the assistance of this book, I have accomplished my mission. You are loved more than you will ever know, and I hope you become one step closer to realising your worth, as I have through this journey.
Introduction
W hat if I told you, you have created your current physical ailments? You may call me a few names I can’t repeat here, but that won’t stop me from pointing out the truth as I have come to discover it. It may surprise you, but you have created your current illness, or any other health crisis you are in. The obvious fact is no one would choose to be sick. No one would choose disease over wellbeing. The reality is, however, you have created the current bodily state (unknowingly) by becoming a match to whatever you are currently experiencing.
But I’m not here to blame you or make you feel any worse. My intention for writing this book is to give you back the power social conditioning has taken away from you. By making us feel like victims of circumstances, be it incorrect diet, not enough exercise, genetic background or other environmental factors, the world around us has brainwashed us into believing our wellbeing is only in the hands of expensive medication and health care professionals who know more than we do. After all, they have studied in universities for many years, and are better equipped to advise us than anyone, right? This illusion that permeates our world has made people rely on external help and institutions for wellbeing. Not only have we not been taught our enormous power as creators in our own lives, but we have been made to feel incapable of curing ourselves. In today’s society we are bombarded with the latest pill, potion or cream that promises to target headaches, back pain, diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis, hip pain, acne, arthritis, allergies, ulcers, colds, flu… and a thousand more health problems. The list is endless.
Walk into a pharmacy or your local supermarket and you’ll find countless products that claim to fight just acne alone. And new ones are developed each day, with more promises. Yet there are millions of people (adults as well as youths) not having any success
