Overview

"The Complete Guide to Holistic Health: Unlocking the Secrets of Biopsychosocial Wellness for Lasting Well-being is purposed towards readers' self-help and self-supervision, with practical knowledge and applicable tools that all people can work with to promote wellness, and to repair, develop, and maintain their multifaceted well-being. In this book you'll find enduring lessons, accessible explanations, and reliable instructions from 14 degreed and certified doctors, massage and physical therapists, and fitness trainers whose evolved and ever-evolving strategies for wellness have enlightened them as holistic thinkers beyond the pale of reductive specialization. Each of the writers' chapters emphasizes biopsychosocial perspectives-the comprehensive integrations of physical, mental, and social influences-that view the larger medical, anatomical, spiritual, and practical pictures from which complete health is drawn. Biopsychosocial holism seeks to complement specialization by recognizing-and then converging-added pieces to the puzzle of wellness or added colors to the full spectrum of health. Resulting in innovations created synergistically, our writers' holism takes on new dimensionality, a deeper and broader understanding of what makes humans tick best. As with all ethically concerned healers, this book's authors recommend that readers seek specialist help whenever a situation warrants special attention beyond what they, the readers, can do on their own. This self-help book offers verified preventive, curative, and maintenance guidelines that will save readers time, money, and needless physical and psychological aggravations and that will provide the proper building blocks to structure their future wellness and health program, whatever a reader's current state of wellness may be. This book's accessible outlook, with best-practice lessons from the West and the East, and informed by wellness holists writing about their holistic practices, is further unified by the ""Recurring Subject Index"" at its end."
