Five Smooth Stones:

Our Power to Heal Without Medicine Through the Science of Prayer

Longing for healing of a problem—physical, emotional, or financial? Weary of medicines, treatments, and therapy? Seeking a deeper understanding of reality? Want to help heal the world?

If you've had your fill of gurus and self-help fluff, and still hunger for the main course, this book is for you! Discover your own answers, and find practical spiritual methods that actually work, without ever compromising a healthy skepticism.

Spiritual Healer Janis Hunt Johnson offers a revolutionary perspective on scientific prayer, which, rather than requiring a leap of faith, is based on understanding the unchanging laws of the universe. She insists that there is no conflict between science and spirituality.

Starting with the biblical story of David and Goliath, she presents five universal laws from a spiritual and scientific perspective. She offers a practical method that heals any problem through prayer alone. Like David, if we turn to God as a first resort, even when we feel utterly overwhelmed by difficulties that loom over us like a giant Goliath, five smooth stones is all we need to win the battle. You can prove it for yourself!

What People Are Saying

"In a time when it seems like anyone will write a book at the drop of a hat, it's refreshing to see an author write so profoundly about what she lives and practices." —Joel Fotinos, mind/body/spirit editorial director/VP at St. Martin's Press, and author of The Prayer Chest, Think & Grow Rich Every Day, and other best-sellers.

"Every page holds gems of pure joy and inspiration. Janis has a gift for words that clarifies and enlightens even the most complex subject. If you are a Truth seeker, this book is a gift from heaven itself!" —Beca Lewis, spiritual guide, and author of The Daily Shift, Living in Grace, and more.

"A powerful must-read book.... Janis lovingly shares her quest for new insights on an ancient, ever-perplexing subject: What is spiritual healing and how is it done? No matter your choice or lack of religious/spiritual beliefs, this adventuresome effort will truly challenge and illuminate your heart and soul, life and beliefs." —John Holmstrom, Hollywood documentary filmmaker, and author of When Prayers Are Answered.

"My new favorite book is Five Smooth Stones by Janis Hunt Johnson. I began reading it when my dad passed away and soon realized that this was no ordinary book. I've now added Five Smooth Stones to my short list of powerful spiritual reads to go back to over and over again. Provocative and life-changing." —Suzanne Mathis McQueen, women's health advocate, ceremonialist, and author of Four Seasons in Four Weeks.

"Janis Hunt Johnson reveals her very personal and unique way of deciphering portions of the human experience, using her passion for etymology as the key to unlock—among other things—the extraordinary healing powers hidden in all of us.

"Using a clever and straightforward writing style, Janis takes us through an insightful tour of her 'method' while doing an unbelievable job of effectively conveying what would seem like inexplicable concepts through solid analogies and unambiguous language—quite a refreshing departure from the vague approach that usually maims these sorts of books.

"Yet, even with Janis’ masterful writing, the depth and complexity of the material contained makes Five Smooth Stones one of those layered experiences that require multiple readings in order to maximize the benefits gained. Is this a bad thing? Quite the contrary; this is what makes this book so valuable to me. The message keeps unraveling the more I revisit each chapter, repaying my investments of time with concepts that factually enrich my life. To me, these are the kinds of books to keep close at hand for a lifetime.

"Suffice it to say that I keep my copy of Five Smooth Stones in my car." —Andrea Luminati, Marketing Communications Strategist, Urbino, Italy
