Mothers will discover new ways to attract balance and joy to their everyday lives and approach their family's health from the inside out in this updated guidebook. In addition to expanding on wellness techniques such as yoga, breathing exercises, meditation, creative expression, and wholesome nutrition—and coupling the information with instructive photographs—this approachable edition features new practices such as aromatherapy and complementary therapies such as homeopathy. Integrating the best of Western and Eastern thought, the handbook shows that by establishing wellness in a family, day-to-day challenges and illnesses can be met from a position of strength and serenity. Through her experience as an ICU nurse, mother of three, yoga instructor and author, ELIZABETH IRVINE believes we can create a healthier, happier way of being from the inside out and rasie families who care—about themselves, about each other, and about the world around them. With twenty-five years' experience as a health care professional, she also has deep, first-hand knowledge of complementary medicine—such as ayurveda, acupuncture, and homeopathy. In her approach to wellness, she fuses modern technology with thousands of years of natural wisdom to reach beyond the use of conventional medicine as a quick fix and reclaim the healing wisdom in our own bodies. Helping mothers to build their emotional and physical capacity and nurture their connection to the world, she empowers them to create a healthier, happier life from the inside out.
