Body Wisdom

At a time when interest in Chinese medicine is increasing, this is a lay-person's guide to understanding the workings of the body, detecting imbalances and self healing, based on the premise that each organ is associated with the stability of a particular emotion.


Simply structured, the book takes on major organ at a time, explaining how it works, symptoms of both balance and imbalance and possible causes, and healing strategies. These strategies are organised into biochemical (nutrition), emotional (flower remedies) electrical (acupressure) and physical (essential oils and exercise). There is also an explanation of TCM and the different healing approaches.
