Over the last 200 years, Western medicine has achieved many remarkable breakthroughs in the treatment of human disease. However, in the pursuit of scientific knowledge, and as a result of increasing reliance on pharmaceutical drugs, many of the traditional wisdoms concerning simple healing remedies tended to be neglected. Under the clinical scientific eye, the human body was seen as a mechanism in need of repair, as though it were an organism functioning separately from the mind, emotions and spirit. The symptoms of disease became the focus of medicine, and the intrinsic wholeness of the patient was overlooked. In more recent times, there has been a growing willingness among medical practitioners to acknowledge the value of complementary healing arts in the treatment of physical and psychological conditions and, more importantly, in the maintenance of health. Most of these disciplines share a common holistic principle - that the well-being of the body, mind and spirit is interlinked and inseparable. In this book you will find quick and simple ways to maintain your mind, body and spirit in good health. | The Beginner's Guide To Mind Body And Spirit by Suzanne Coldwell, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
