Donna Eden
Donna Eden is an author, lecturer, and teacher of energy medicine. In her work, she often collaborates with her husband, David Feinstein, PhD, a former faculty member of The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
Donna and David co-wrote the bestseller [1] book, Energy Medicine. They also co-authored Six Pillars of Energy Medicine: Clinical Strengths of a Complementary Paradigm, which was published in a peered-reviewed journal, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine. [2]
Donna serves on the faculty of the Energy Medicine University[3]. She conceived and trademarked the term "Energy Kinesiology" to describe a process of using muscle testing for detecting and correcting imbalances in the body; in May 2002 she granted unrestricted rights to use the term to the Energy Kinesiology Association.[4] Donna also co-founded the nonprofit Energy Medicine Institute in Ashland, Oregon.
The Eden Energy Medicine Certification Program is based on her work.
Ideas and Theories
Eden's practice has centered on "energy healing"[5] and she has shared her ideas on energy medicine throughout the United States.[6] These fields may be considered part of alternative medicine.
She claims she has the ability to see the body's energies[7], and can use that ability to accurately determine the causes of physical and psychological problems based on the state of those energies, and to devise highly effective treatments.
