Practical Iridology: Using the Eye as a Guide to Health Risks and Wellbeing

How to use the iris of the eye as a diagnostic medical tool

The human iris provides a unique window into our bodies, offering clues to our past, present, and future health.

Its related science—iridology—allows us to assess our wellbeing and provides pathways to follow to ensure we remain physically and emotionally fit.

Iridologist and herbalist Peter Jackson-Main demonstrates just how easy it is for readers to make use of this diagnostic tool.

With just a small flashlight and a mirror, you can begin to compare your eyes with the dozens shown in this book, learning about your constitution and how you can avoid potential health problems

In this revised and expanded edition, Practical Iridology also explains what the colours and markings of your eyes reveal; details dietary and exercise routines for different iris types; provides a visual glossary of the different iris signs; and offers guidance in preparing remedies.

Peter Jackson Main began his enquiry into natural healing soon after leaving Cambridge University in the mid-70s, prompted by his own health issues.

Before finding the The College of Herbs and Natural Healing and training in Herbal Medicine and Iridology, Peter had already found and trained in Reflexology, Massage and Aromatherapy, Polarity Therapy and other modalities of energy healing. He later completed a Master of Sciences.

Peter has worked extensively within the herbal and naturopathic community to promote the self-determination of the profession and navigate the legislative environment surrounding the use of natural medicines.

He was a co-founder in 1995, and long-serving chairman of the Association of Master Herbalists, and has also represented herbal and natural medicine on key government consultations and working groups. Peter is currently Chair of the General Naturopathic Council and is a Fellow of the Guild of Naturopathic Iridologists.

He is currently Senior Lecturer and Course Director for Herbal Medicine, Academic Director and Head of Research at the College of Naturopathic Medicine (CNM).

Peter is also a working musician with a back-catalogue of self-penned recordings, as well as a specialist interest in Arabian music, playing percussion in an Arab Takht ensemble.
