Publisher's Synopsis
Cases of chronic illness are on the rise - from heart disease, diabetes and lupus to fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis or cancer. Increasing numbers of the population are obese. Even more disturbingly, many of these patients fail to take their prescription medicine or make necessary lifestyle changes. As a nation, we are sick - and getting sicker. Janette, who suffered with chronic illness for six years, knows how difficult necessary lifestyle changes can be. So instead of prescribing a specific treatment, diet or exercise routine, EVERYDAY HEALING provides daily action steps to help you eliminate old habits and establish new paths to health. It offers practical guidance on overcoming healing problems - from organising your kitchen in order to cook healthier meals and boosting your confidence that you can heal, to having a tough conversation with an unsupportive spouse. Readers of EVERYDAY HEALING will find: · Personal stories and medical studies that demonstrate the power of each daily action step. · Tips to effectively research and evaluate new treatment options. · Tools to manage tough emotions and create a fabulous support team. · Organising principles and time-management skills to create a routine for healthy eating, sleeping and exercise.
