The secret is combining the strengths of both Western and Eastern medicine to achieve the unique health goals of each patient. How to do just that is what this book is about. 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, these tools will lead you through a transformation to true well-being in body, mind, and spirit.
