Autorenporträt

Sylvie Heyman published her first book: Make it a HABIT! Creating Health and Happiness for your body, Mind, and Spirit at the age of 79 in March 2017. The book was an extension of the author's experiences in the healthcare field, and covers a span of 50 years as a Registered Nurse, Chiropractor, Acupuncturist, and Health Coach. At the beginning of the "habit" book, the author describes her origins and her reasons for pursuing careers in the healing arts. This led to writing her memoirs about her family's escape during World War II and how her past molded her life.
