Description

"Gerad is a brilliant man. If the world woke up toxa0what he knows, wow, now that would be something." — Chris Evans "Gerad has opened my eyes to a new way of thinking." — Fearne Cotton "Kite gifts his patients with something they often weren't aware they had lost: that ineffable sense of 'me-ness' that a child is born with but that many of us mislay along the way." — Daily Telegraph "Gerad and his philosophical tradition of Five-Element acupuncture helps me to make sense of what it means to be alive in the 21st century on this planet... And how to get through it and enjoy this ride!" — Ed O Brien, Radiohead "I have been seeking Gerad's help for over 15 years. A lot has happened in that time personally, professionally, physically and emotionally. Through the trials and tribulations his wise words have always been a guiding light. The one thing he's always told me is that I'm okay - always have been, and always will be. We all know thoughts can be destructive and that having an ego can be a pain, but sometimes we just need a little reminder of what s real. Finally Gerad has written this book which does just that." — Melanie Chisholm (Mel C) "Gerad's aim is not quick-fix happiness, but to achieve the kind of balance where you're far more receptive to long term contentment." — Elle Magazine (UK) "At the heart of Gerad Kite's philosophy is his fervent belief that we need to get back in tune with the human body's natural cycle. Only then will we discover the true path to health and happiness." — Thexa0Daily Mail Gerad Kite is an Acupuncture Master (AcM) and psychotherapist with over 25 years clinical experience. He is a recognized leader in the field of infertility and an internationally respected practitioner and teacher of Worsley Five-Element Acupuncture. In 1993 he started the first ever NHS acupuncture service at Kings College Hospital inxa0the UKxa0while building his private practice in central London.xa0In 2006 he opened the Kite Clinic where he led a large team of practitioners performing over 10,000 treatments a year, and inxa02007 he founded the London Institute of Five-Element Acupuncture (LIFEA) where he personally trained his current team of practitioners.

Everything You Need You Have by Gerad Kite

Is it true that everything you need, you have? While reading Gerad Kite’s book you will learn how to look at things in a different perspective as well as living in the present moment. It’s not about doing more it’s about being more. Home is where you feel at peace it’s a permanent place inside yourself. This book gives you a ten-step program to find your “calm.”
“Wanting thigs to be a certain way is NOT freedom.”
“Achieving what you set out to do is NOT freedom.”
“Being the person you want to be is NOT freedom.” (Kite, 2016, page 20).

The journey the author takes the reader on beings with admitting you are lost. You will learn how to use a pendulum. What is a Pendulum? A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely. To find your true rest means getting your thoughts and actions away from chaos in the physical world and even your thoughts in your mind. One way to get back to calm is to make a list of the activities you know will bring you back to a happy state of mind. Extreme highs and lows are what you choose to do with your state of mind which is a manifestation of a mood or thought at a particular time in a particular place but they have little to do with “you.” When you take away all the labels we have been programmed to be, we are all the same, “a person.” What we all learn from Mr. Kite is the ten steps to find your natural rhythms, view your emotions from a different perspective, and finally experience a state of bliss that you can return over and over. “I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review." @ 2016 Jackie Paulson
