Mission and Vision
The Mission of DrMiller.com is to provide:
Information: A trusted source of knowledge, wisdom, and quality self-healing tools and products, developed by Dr. Miller through more than 30 years of innovation and practice in the art and science of Mind/Body healing.
A tiny bit of information can be incredibly important—like knowing which way to turn your wheels if you begin to skid on icy asphalt. Or knowing the combination to a safe. Or the relaxation procedure that is the direct antidote to stress. Information can save your life or make it immensely better.
Only some information is knowledge, however, and only some knowledge is wisdom. On DrMiller.com you will find information that is not only intellectually and scientifically sound, but also experientially effective. Our goal is to bring you wise guidance and the direct experience of healing and peak performance.
This information is intended to help you utilize your inner resources to maximize your health and performance, not as a substitute for needed medical, psychological or psychiatric treatment or counseling. If you are undergoing therapy, it is recommended that you consult with your health professional before using these materials.
Inspiration: The information, experiences and products on DrMiller.com give you access to your inner resources and guidance in accessing your vast inner potential to heal, create, succeed, enjoy, and perform at your optimum level on the path to your highest aspirations. Here you will find powerful techniques for healing mind, body, emotion, and spirit, which will empower and inspire the achievement of your true heart’s desire.
The natural state of every human being is joyful, curious, creative, and enthusiastic. Such qualities are a direct reflection of our inner spirit, the Life Force. The luxuriant abundance of living things on this planet attests to the power of this force. But when this inner light is dimmed, our natural creativity, ebullience, and loving nature diminish, and instead, depression, anxiety, and rage result.
To be inspired is to breathe this spirit into your body, mind, emotions and performance. This requires emptying yourself of excess tension and negativity, then gaining access to your deepest essence. "Nothing great," Emerson tells us, "was ever accomplished without enthusiasm." Whether your goal is to heal yourself or your relationships, or to find and follow your unique path in life, inspiration is crucial to your success.
Transformation: An introduction to deep healing, which is a form of transformation. By promoting healing at all levels, from the personal to the planetary, DrMiller.com offers exciting new ideas for extending compassionate healing to relationship, family, community, and humankind, as well as to yourself.
When the caterpillar grows fatter by eating more, that’s not transformation, it’s merely translation. But when, within it’s cocoon, it metamorphoses to a butterfly, transformation has occurred. Being promoted from the mailroom to the stock room is not transformation—although it’s a promotion. To become a vice president or a best selling author, this is transformation.
To have a little less pain or a little less anxiety is good, but a true healing involves transformation, going beyond pain-free to vital and healthy—beyond anxious to safe, strong, enthusiastic, and joyful. On DrMiller.com you will find Software for the Mind® that is not only effective for helping you relieve symptoms, but also in producing Deep Healing, Self-esteem and life transformation.
The Vision of DrMiller.com
In these stormy times, when our technology, our global systems, and our insecurity appear to be spinning out of control, each of us faces the enormous challenge of finding meaning, strength and hope in our lives. The products of our own ingenuity have turned against us, on both the personal and the social level. As we attempt to navigate through these turbulent waters, we find ourselves confronting urgent questions that demand workable solutions:
- How can I heal my body, mind, spirit and emotions and enrich the quality of my life?
- What is my purpose in life? How can I create a vision for my life that reflects it and maximize my performance to achieve it?
- Can I harness the energy of stress and redirect it to create health, sanity and enthusiasm?
- How can I develop healthy Self-esteem and create joyful, loving, productive relationships with family, friends, and co-workers?
- How can I contribute to the healing of my family, community and planet?
Through more than three decades of addressing such challenges with his patients, clients, students and audiences, Dr. Miller has come to believe strongly that there are positive answers to questions such as these. He has developed powerful strategies and tools that enable people to find those answers for themselves. Each of Dr. Miller’s presentations, whether a CD, .MP3 or video program, a book or a live seminar, reflects his remarkable visionary approach to health and human potential, and his commitment to helping you find your path to a healthy, fulfilling life.
The leading edge of his vision is represented by LIGHT (the Leadership Institute for Global Healing and Transformation). Just as an individual can find inner wisdom and inspiration to create deep healing and peak performance, so can a family, community or corporation. His ultimate vision involves the wise and compassionate use of information technology, such as the Internet, to create healing at the global level, a healing that includes all of humanity and its environment.
What is Healing?
- To heal is to become whole; the word healing comes from an old English word that is also the root of whole, hale, hearty, and holy. Healing of a system, be it a person, a relationship, a way of relating to the world, a family, or community, involves the system coming into wholeness, with each component part occupying its appropriate place, in appropriate relationship to the other parts and the whole.
- The wisdom of healing is intrinsic to the human being. Its essence is awareness and balance.
- Health is an expression of the whole person, and to heal is therefore to make whole.
- Healing does not just mean that the physical function returns to normal. Such an arbitrary definition of health is impossible once we begin thinking in terms of the whole person, who is composed of mind, emotions, and spirit, as well as a body.
What is Deep Healing?
Deep Healing is a powerful concept for understanding your health and performance. It looks beyond symptoms of illness or dysfunction to the source of the imbalance that causes them.
Deep Healing invites you to look deeper than the superficial symptoms and behaviors that cause you discomfort and to discover the inner behaviors—thoughts, emotions, and habits—that block your health and peak performance and produce dysfunction and disease. It aims towards the creation of high-level wellness and peak performance.
Deep Healing is a set of enjoyable mind-tools for creating or restoring the health and balance to mind, body, emotion and spirit—and to your environment and relationships, too.
Deep Healing means contacting and using your inner wisdom and your inner spiritual resources to intentionally guide your mind to produce healing at all levels. It then leads you to harmonize internal and external aspects of your life.
Deep Healing, at the microscopic level, refers to optimal performance of the individual cells of the body, the elimination of stress, disease, and dysfunction. It appears at the emotional level as inner feelings of happiness, fulfillment, satisfaction, vitality, strength, and freedom. In the external world it appears as peak performance, freedom, and personal and professional success.
Deep Healing has, in addition to this inner and outer dimension, an individual and a community dimension. On the individual level, there’s the health of a person’s body, mind, emotions, habits, and performance. At the community level, there is the healing of relationships—friends and family, workplace, community, nation, and finally the planet as a whole.
Deep Healing is about transformation. It is about thinking in a transformative way about your body, mind, spirit and emotion, about your life, your habits, and your relationships, about the world around you. This "out of the box" thinking frees you from being constrained to a two dimensional world. You discover how to let go of habit and attachment and to expand in the direction your spirit really wants to expand. For you, that might be healing relationships, serving your community, or humanity as a whole. Or perhaps it is getting rid of your backache, your cigarettes, or improving your relationship with your spouse or child.
The brain, your most highly evolved organ, is the key to Deep Healing. Through it you can relax away the toxic influences of excessive physical and emotional activity (fatigue, fear, depression, anger, or muscle tension), and restore balance and energy. Your brain is a gland, a chemical factory. Your mind, through its innermost thoughts, beliefs and images, directly controls the brain. Your brain then secretes the chemicals that create your emotions, body, behavior and the experiences you have in every moment—health or illness, happiness or misery, success or failure.
True health necessarily involves the coordination and congruence of all aspects of your being, including all communications and relationships with others and with the world around you. It embraces every aspect of your life, including diet, exercise, work, play, and relationships. DrMiller.com will provide you with continuously updated tools, techniques, and perspectives to guide you to Deep Healing.

How to Heal Yourself
Self-Healing is achieved through understanding, experience, and the skillful application of specific processes and techniques such as—deep relaxation, imagery, emotional accessing and rescripting.
Deep relaxation promotes rapid healing, works in combination with every treatment modality, prevents recurrences and permits to permanent healing.
Physical tension and mental/emotional stress produce disordered (incoherent) neural impulses in the nerves and circulating stress chemicals in the body that cause:
- Inflammation, (tendonitis, arthritis, GI problems)
- Muscle pain and dysfunction, (backache and headache, muscle tension, elevated blood pressure, colonic disorders)
- Emotional imbalance , (anxiety, irritability, anger, depression, unhappiness)
- Mental dysfunction, (low creativity, insomnia, procrastination, attention deficit)
- Behavioral disorders, (drinking, smoking, eating)
Most imbalances and disorders, be they illnesses, dysfunctions, symptoms, or diseases, are either caused, or made worse, by physical tension and mental/emotional stress. Relaxation allows the mind to increase the speed and depth of the healing.
- Guided Imagery is also used. Healing imagery is held in the mind, while in this receptive Healing State, allowing you to "reprogram" your mind and brain to restore internal coherence and balance, and thus to help heal at the level of body, emotion, mind and behavior.
- Rescripting involves mentally rehearsing desired behaviors of mind and body, much as athletes or actors mentally rehearse their performances. These new behaviors may have to do with how the internal organs of your body operate, how you talk to yourself, your personal habits, how you interact with others, etc. Diet, exercise, rest, prayer, meditation, and other modalities of rebalancing the system may be needed, but all these require us to change our mental behavior in order to apply them. Thus, the mind-body aspect is always primary in healing.
The Six Steps of Self-Healing
Education—Obtain as much accurate information as possible about health and healing. Learn as well about your constitution and about your condition, its symptoms, etiology, and therapy, including the role of stress, diet, emotions and exercise. Learn about the different options for treating your condition.
Relaxing Deeply—Relaxation is essential for rapid healing because it is the direct antidote to stress. In addition, relaxation empties your mind of distractions, and thus allows you to self-program new, more desirable, healing behaviors—both at the visible, (macroscopic) level, and the microscopic behavior of the cells of your body. Deep relaxation is also the key to programming mind and body for peak performance in any endeavor—sports, profession, or personal life (yes, even sexual).
Entering "The Healing State"—in which the mind is open to rescripting, and the body is accepting of healthy images and emotions. Dr. Miller’s CDs and .MP3 downloads teach you to do this through simple, logical, straightforward, and highly enjoyable guided imagery experiences. The experience and your ability to use the Healing State becomes progressively more powerful with a few minutes a day of pleasurable practice.
Forming Powerful, Transformative, Healing Images—Intentional mental imagery through Selective Awareness—Software For The Mind—allows you to make a commitment to healing, directly influence the behavior of the cells of your body (e.g., the immune system), initiate and sustain health-producing behaviors, (exercising, diet, non-abuse of alcohol or drugs, quitting smoking), and produce a health-sustaining self-image. This inner image serves to change the behavior at every level of system.
Rehearsing These Images Daily—Reprogramming the mind is actually retraining the mind. Just as you might practice musical scales or typing in order to improve, the regular practice of imagery trains the brain, nervous system, and immune system to easily carry out the desired changes.
Reinforcing Positive Changes—Reward your mind for responding to your entreaties, so that the new behaviors persist.
Glossary of Terms
If you would discourse with me, first define your terms—Aristotle.
Dr. Miller’s work was revolutionary in the ‘60s and ‘70s, and continues to be revolutionary. Some of the ideas are simple and straightforward and easy to understand, whereas others require some deeper thought.
DrMiller.com offers not merely a simple way to treat symptoms, but a body of truly profound knowledge and wisdom that invites us to discover nothing less than a new paradigm, a new way of thinking that leads to deep healing, personal empowerment, peak performance, and global transformation.
For the sake of brevity, a very economical writing style is used, and if a sentence or paragraph seems difficult to understand, try re-reading it a couple of times. With the definition of most words and terms in general usage, such as the meaning of the word "physical, "muscle" or "infection," the normal definition applies and there should be no difficulty. In other cases, however, Dr. Miller has taken common words (such as "love" and "healing") that are often misunderstood and misused, and defined them more precisely. Sometimes phrases composed of familiar words are used, yet the meaning intended may not be the first one that comes to your mind—as in "deep healing", "peak performance", "spiritual growth".
Dr. Miller values a rational and logical approach, and what he writes and speaks about is based on sound knowledge and wisdom, drawn from many years of experience, research, and careful thought. Thus, if what you read sounds trivial, contradictory or illogical, we ask that you take time to re-read and check definitions. Only in this way will you be able to comprehend the power, immediacy and elegance of Dr. Miller’s principles, theories and practice.
