Reviews

This book is uniquely necessary as it thoroughly addresses health through a multimodal lens not often considered by educators, practitioners, clinicians, researchers, and students. ... Professionals across various disciplines could benefit from strategies and interventions surrounding cultural humility, social justice, mindfulness and stress reduction, self-care, nutrition strategies, wellness, and mental health approaches. (Rachel S Simmons, Doody's Book Reviews, April 9, 2021)
