Pennington Plan: Dr. Andrea's Mind/body Spirit Approach For Achieving Optimal Health And Well-being

Rating:
Summary: INSPIRING and easy to read!
Review: I am so happy to read a book by a medical doctor that respects that we are not just physical bodies that require drugs or medication to be well! This book has inspired me and helped me put together what I've suspected for years - that my health is tied to my emotions and how my mind works.

I recommend this book highly - it's more grounded than stricly spiritual books but much more helpful and practical than the typical medical books. No medical jargon or confusing terminology here! I am giving this as a gift to my mom who has diabetes, too.

I have been to so many 'healers' and never gotten all of the answers to my health questions, then I stumbled on this book and it's like a bright light has been turned on inside of me! I can understand how powerful I really am and how I can take control of my health and wellbeing.

Dr. Pennington's description of how stress is tied to weight gain and digestive problems (a patient story in the book) very closely mirrors my situation. I began using the techniques that she described in the book and I've enjoyed the first weekend NOT laying in bed in pain. I can definitely say that I'm a believer in her plan.

This is a must-read! I hope to visit her wellness Institute some day as well.
