“Urges arise, not only from what one eats, but from what one thinks and eats! Also from what one digests mentally and spiritually!” Thus spoke Edgar Cayce, on the oneness of mind, body, and spirit, and the importance of watching our food intake.

Cayce is, perhaps, the most famous American psychic. He was also known as “The Sleeping Prophet”, because his insights came while he was in a state of “sleep” or what is now termed as trance channeling.

It is said that he could see into the past and into the future and could describe events taking place in Far off places. Between 1901 and  1944, a total of 14,000 “readings” or documented records of his telephatic clairvoyant statements were gathered. They covered such topics as ancient civilizations (including Atlantis), dreams and their meanings, psychic experiences, reincarnation, nutrition, relationships, among others.

It was his medical readings, however, which astounded many, especially doctors. Many of Cayce’s recommended cures are now considered valid medical treatments and have earned Cayce the distinction of being called the father of holistic medicine.

He rose to Fame decades before the New Age came about and today he remains a major influence on its teachings.
In 1932, Edgar Cayce founded The Association for Research and Enlightenment, Inc. (ARE.), which is based in Virginia, USA to preserve his readings. A.R.E. is a non-sectarian, non-dogmatic global network of individuals who conduct educational activities and fellowships in 25 countries.
