Description

The human body, if taken care of properly, will last a lifetime. We are on a health journey from the time we are born. In this journey, there are mountains to climb, there are rivers to cross, there are lush valleys and dry deserts. Important lessons can be learned from each portion of the journey. This book is guaranteed to assist health coaches as well as health seekers. It’s meaningful, practical and pragmatic, with stories of real people facing debilitating illnesses. Nine accredited health professionals from three continents, with certifications in functional medicine, health coaching, holistic pharmacology and integrative nutrition, share their best steps and keys to optimal health. Meet each author, get connected, get healthy. Your body has the ability to adapt, adjust and heal based on the environment in which it lives. When you were born, you were not given the Owner’s Manual for your body. This book reveals the backbone of holistic health practices and integrative ways of working with the body that can yield triumphant results. Western medicine has become adept at emergency intervention and we live longer. However, medications used to treat chronic diseases generally only seek to turn down the volume of what the body is trying to say. One medication leads to another and another to try to deal with the side effects of each additional medication. If we are willing to listen to our bodies and work with holistic, integrative and lifestyle practices, often we can secure remedies to offset the causes of illness and find an easier path to wellness. Let’s learn to work with our unique genetic expressions and treat our bodies with the respect and love they deserve. Inspired Health Journeys arose from our Health Coaching support group on Facebook, “Rocket Fuel for Health Coaches.” Each chapter is different from the rest, yet you will find commonalities throughout. It’s not repetitious but rather congruent, layer upon layer. With this book, you can begin to compile your own owner’s manual!
