A NEW LIMITED EDITION OF MY FIRST BOOK 'THE LINK'

My first book The Link was first published in 1974, unbelievably almost 50 years ago, and it remained in print until fairly recently. However, public interest in it has never waned and a new generation is interested in my story. 

I have published a new edition for everyone who has found that even battered old copies on eBay are no longer available - or for those who would simply like an updated 21st century copy! 

We have produced a special high-quality limited hardback edition of only 250 copies, each of which I will sign and number. Printed on 115 gsm paper, complete with a marker ribbon, it contains over 40 illustrations many of which are previously unpublished. Half of these are in colour - the original copies of The Link had only black and white photographs some of which, although of their time, were poor quality. 

I’m indebted to Abby Freeley (a follower of my Facebook page) who gave her time to completely transcribe the book so that we could start afresh with a newly typeset text which now looks much more up to date. 

A high quality book is costly to produce and although it would have been cheaper to have printed it in China, we’ve kept the whole project in this country. It is priced at £25 plus postage and packaging. Please note that you may be charged extra by your country's Customs Department depending on where you are based.

We will be sending the books out week beginning 13th December 2021

Matthew Manning's 'The Path to Health', 1982, set high standards: It was Matthew’s very first healing meditation and featured the hauntingly beautiful music of Robert Godfrey, classically trained keyboard player with 'The Enid'. It's also believed to be the first time music was used to back a vocal relaxation track. In 2018, Anita Ridley, in another first, sought to enhance its mood and setting, adding her own brand of sublime, soul searing violin to the original recording.

'The Path to Health' has been digitally remastered by Garrod Tucker.

'Just Relax', became Matthew's most popular recording of the 1980s, selling over 200,000 copies in its original format. Combining Matthew's voice and the sounds of nature and set on a spring morning, so many have enjoyed its simplicity. Lasting just thirteen minutes, it makes for perfect listening at the beginning of a brand new day. His favourite recording of that decade was 'The Miracle of Love', 1987, again working with the inimitable Robert Godfrey. It features simply inspirational orchestral music: a spontaneous recording, nothing added nor removed.

In 2018, the multi talented Anita Ridley added her own very special brand of magic to Matthew's spoken word recordings: 'The Path to Health' and 'The Miracle of Love' to spellbinding effect. The viewer sets out on an expansive journey, during which stunning images and effects are woven: Matthew's meditations are taken to new spiritual heights! You can see images unravel of magical gardens, sultry seascapes and take a ride through the universe whilst sampling the special energy for which Matthew has become so well known.

Whether you are a healer or seeking self help, you are sure to benefit from the enhancements to these recordings.

Includes two bonus videos: Matthew Manning's Healing Circles, filmed and produced by Finn Wheater, featuring a track from 'In Unity' by Tim Wheater. 'The Healing Intent Workshop', produced by Anita Ridley, featuring a track from 'Heartlands' by Tim Wheater.
