The body and mind cannot be separated - so why does Western medicine approach them as separate entities? What if it's this act of separation that causes us more harm? Outside of the standard western medical model, there are cultures and systems which recognize that the key to healing one ailment or another lies not in treating the symptom alone, but in getting to the root cause of dis-ease and integrating all aspects of the person; body, mind and soul. When we are treated as a whole person we can begin to heal, and ultimately become stronger and healthier than we ever were before. Treating whole people, not symptoms, is the key. In Holistic Healing, Dr. Andrea Pennington presents 12 real life stories of people from various backgrounds and cultures who have made the mind-body connection that is so essential to healing the self. You will hear from people who have learned to listen to their intuition over pressure from their family or culture. People who have learned the power of processing grief and trauma to gain back their health. Some who have rewritten their own narrative and have used self love as the medium to heal and transform their whole lives. And from others who have healed their mind to heal their body. If you are suffering with pain or illness that allopathic medicine can't treat effectively, then you are not alone and all is not lost. The authors in this book come from a variety of cultures, and have all had to let go of societal expectations in order to find their path to healing. They share their stories to show you that you can do the same. Get your copy of the book today and begin your journey to holistic healing.
