Welcome to the last home holistic health reference guide you\u2019ll ever need to buy. \u201cThe Home Reference to Holistic Health & Healing\u201d by Brigitte Mars and Chrystle Fielder could have easily without exaggeration been called \u201cThe ULTIMATE Home Reference to Holistic Health & Healing\u201d. Mars and Fiedler not only put together a reference manual, but also a guide to living a healthier life. Honestly I\u2019m not sure why you\u2019re still reading, you should already be buying the book. However if you\u2019re still hanging around I might as well tell you a little more about \u201cHolistic Health & Healing\u201d.<\/p>\n

When I was first contacted about this book I assumed this was going to basically be a big dictionary, or encyclopedia, whichever reference manual better suits the subject matter. Color me surprised when \u201cHolistic Health & Healing\u201d showed up and I found that instead of a dry list based book Mars and Fielder divide the book into conditions that can affect your ability to be happy and holistic ways to treat yourself for those conditions.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ For instance the first one is stress. They start out talking about stress in general and how your body reacts to it. Next, nourish your body with nutrients including foods to eat and avoid. That\u2019s followed up with herbal stress relief which mentions things such as chamomile \u201cbeing a gentle relaxant that tones the nervous system\u201d. They discuss adrenal health which can suffer from chronic stress. Then there is aromatherapy, homeopathy, deep breathing, meditation, yoga, the Relaxation Response, \u201cThe Power of Now\u201d, gardening, walking, a slow hobby, journaling, massage, reflexology, acupressure, and 43 other tips. I assume now you see why I call it ultimate! And it\u2019s like that for easing anxiety, enhancing mood, resting easy, boosting brain power, maintaining a healthy weight, increasing energy, improving immunity, reducing chronic pain, recovering from grief and trauma, and cultivating joy and happiness.<\/p>\n

Of course I like the scads of information the authors provide. I also appreciate any holistic health guide that encourages the reader to seek professional medical attention for many symptoms. Author Brigitte Mars also wrote the book \u201cRawsome: Maximizing Health, Energy, and Culinary Delight with the Raw Food Diet\u201d, so when it comes to dietary issues \u201cHolistic Health & Healing\u201d recommends a raw foods diet. Personally, if I was going to take that kind of dietary shift, I would talk to a professional nutritionist or my doctor first. Just saying. I also want to remind readers to take care when sourcing supplements. It wasn\u2019t that long ago that we learned many herbal supplements were filled with fake ingredients.<\/a> <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Home Reference to Holistic Health & Healing\u201d by Brigitte Mars and Chrystle Fiedler is a powerful manual. Make it your first, and last holistic health book purchase today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
