Summary: ugh, I can't wait for a yard sale to give mine away
Review: This book only feeds a new-age, mumbo jumbo societal hunger. I find the text really patronizing and frankly, dangerous. To draw a direct link between symptoms and feelings is a tenuous and even more stress inducing proposition. I have been down the road of mind/body health and I think there are better people who write on this subject with a more balanced take.

This is the first review I've ever written for Amazon. I write it because I feel so strongly that Northrup's advice causes more stress than anything else. Find yourself a great acupuncturist and a great doctor and you'll go a long way towards being healthy. This comes from a reader whose been down this path and back again for the past 15 years.

Summary: Educational and Inspiring Book
Review: A friend recommended this book to me. She had told me what the chapters consisted of, etc. So, I was very excited to read it. And it lived up to all of my expectations. This book changed my perspectives on several issues. Northrup gives several "miracle" stories of her patients and tons of medical facts, research, etc. I would not recommend this book to the narrow-minded. But, if you do purchase it, I would recommend taking your time to read it, it is a lot of info to take in. But, it is valuable information for anyone to know (whether you are male or female.)
