Average
This book was "average" for a textbook. The graphs and charts are excellent, however the author is not very engaging while presenting the material.

Five Stars!
This book is by far the best guide to mind/body techniques to healing and recovery of the body and spirit. Dr. Benson's Mind/Body Clinic at Beth Israel Deaconness Hospital in Boston is widely respected and uses all the techniques made available here. Indispensible.

Really great book
I am super impressed with this book. It is packed full of great information. I'm reading it for a class and wish I had more time to thoroughly read it but what I have read so far is fantastic. I have learned a lot.

Good for heartburn
I usually don't write reviews on Amazon unless I have extreme satisfaction from my purchase. Well this is one of them. I used to get bad heartburn frequently and was taking proton-pump inhibitors, which I felt were not alleviating the problem but maybe making it worse. I bought this book and learned a bit about the digestive system and the bacteria involved in helping us digest. Knowing that ...

A good book to have, even if you're not taking the class!
I took the class that used this book last semester, and I really love this book. It's easy to read (although at times it goes into a little too much detail), doesn't sugar-coat anything, has great pictures, and has labs at the end of each chapter to help you apply the information. From proper nutrition to cancer prevention to strength training to STD prevention, this book has it all covered. I ...

The best for healing
I've purchased many copies of this book for friends who are involved with healing. It provides the yoga poses and complete yoga sequences for each needed type of healing. Presentation is clear and complete. And, even better, there is an excellent index.

Great Reference Book
I have both this book and the other(Pres. for Nutritional Healing). I have found this book to be a great resource. I recommend it to all my friends and family whom I am trying to turn on to nutrition. It is a great "starter book" for people just into diet and nutrition and want to be educated about the things they put into their bodies. It is very informative and an easy read. It is a ...

An invaluble resource
This book has TONS of information on an enormous range of foods. It lists and describes varieties, health benefits/myths/concerns, nutritional information, history, and serving suggestions for everything from apples and asparagus to flour and sweeteners. I bought pasilla peppers at farmer's market today, and looked them up to see how they compared to anaheims in terms of flavor and heat. It's ...

Fitness for Boredom
Experience with book: 30 days Pros: Well-illustrated, detailed, informative Cons: It's a fitness book I have little authority upon which to base this review, having barely read it for my 2 credit-hour course. I therefore have few negative or positive statements to make about it, except that it is a great resource for beginning a personal fitness program, or just staying educated on the ...

A Pleasure to Read
Besides addressing healing he writes about what he learned from spending a year in jail for operating a successful medical practice in Washington state and adds some comments on the socio-political terrain. His writing style absolutely flows. In my opinion he is one of the best writers I have encountered and he comes across as someone I'd like to know. Actually, he comes across as someone who ...

This is a great book with easy the read pages
This book is full of photos and highlighted spots to make learning the information quick and easy. The chapters are set up so that you can read that one without knowing the information for the chapter before, so if you wanted to read about food control without reading the background information on "what wellness is" you can. I needed the book for a class and will keep it around for years (I need ...

Nursing for Wellness in Older Adults
In my opinion, this book lack organizational skills. In addition, it has to much unnecessary information that is not important. Not a good book to study especially if you are in the demanding Nursing Program. I asked other people in my class they confirmed my opinion.

Wellness Education
I love this book! and am grateful for its reintroduction into the marketplace. With its new look and updated content I can now use the Wellness Workbook in my college health classes without fear of being labeled out of date. The Wellness Workbook was one of the original shapers of the Wellness Movement in the early 1980s, and promoted the idea that health was more than the absence of disease. ...

It about time.
Adults with Down Syndrome are often misunderstood and a lack of patience on the part of the listener adds to the frustration. This authoritative book written by physicians provides accurate information for parents, caregivers, physicians, teachers and anyone needing to better understand persons with Down Syndrome. Although I have found the information very helpful in understanding some reasons ...
