De-stress, sleep better, re-energise, beat mood swings, boost libido.
Stressed, overtired and over it? Transform your life with these natural ways to boost your health and wellbeing.
New research shows one in two Australians suffers from depression or anxiety. Gingko, ginseng, kava, St John's Wort, and other herbs are now the hip supplements consumers are demanding from their doctors and pharmacists. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, Australians spent $2 billion on these therapies last year. And new research shows they actually work!
Mim Beim knows this well. For 15 years she has run a busy naturopathy practice while writing about alternative therapies for magazines and newspapers around Australia. This book outlines the causes of anxiety and depression and, more importantly, details the herbs, supplements and other potions that can help.
Whereas other natural therapy books take a broad approach, this book focuses specifically on the remedies that can boost the mood - emotions, anxiety and nerves - and mind - concentration, libido and brainpower. It explains what anxiety, low libido and depression actually are (and how to know what you are suffering!) plus explains the physical illnesses linked to mind and mood disorders - such as insomnia, eczema, loss of libido, headaches and weight gain.
Best of all the book explains how to use natural remedies such as vitamins, Bach flowers and physical therapies such as deep tissue massage and yoga to overcome them.
This is the definitive book for people who want to boost their mood and mind without taking anti-depressants and/or mind-altering drugs such as Prozac. It will help people boost their libido, beat mood swings, overcome pre-menstrual tension, concentrate better and feel more energetic.
If you've ever wondered how to improve your health and wellbeing without drugs, this book has all the answers.
