Description

True Wellness is a step-by-step guide to optimal health, blending the best of Western and Eastern medical traditions.

The authors have realized the conventional way of managing disease is unsustainable. They recognize that even as the high-tech accomplishments of Western medicine increase, the overall health of the nation continues to decline. In their own practices, however, they have discovered a path to optimal health, even in complicated Western health-care systems.

The secret is combining the strengths of both Western and Eastern medicine to achieve the unique health goals of each patient.

With this book you will:

  • Discover the strengths and benefits of both Eastern and Western medicine
  • Use journaling topics, questions, worksheets, checklists, and practical advice to prepare for and begin new, healthy behaviors
  • Learn to create a multidisciplinary care team for a strong alliance between your Western health-care providers and Eastern practitioners

True Wellness encourages individual responsibility and prepares you to take the first step on your healing journey. By combining ancient wisdom, cutting-edge scientific discoveries, and practical advice, this book will lead you through a transformation to true well-being in body, mind, and spirit.
