If you want to skyrocket your health without wasting money on drugs that can more harm than good, then keep reading…

Herbal medicine has been used for thousands of years and it is has been re-gaining popularity recently but it’s still a long way behind allopathic medicine. But, what do our ancient traditions teach us, are they all the same and how do we know why or what works? There is limited research and evidence yet we know many of the remedies, at the very least, help with prevention.

Nowadays, pharmaceutical drugs are the go-to for every little symptom from a headaches and coughs to depression and anxiety.

Not only is over-use beginning to be a problem, but these pills can come with significant side effects, especially in the long run… and they hardly ever address the underlying condition of your symptoms.

That’s why we need to consider alternative treatments for our health.

Herbal medicine works holistically. It is a way of life as much as a set of remedies. It strengthens your body, boosts your immune system, and restores your overall health. We have much to re-learn from our indigenous and ancient traditions and their wisdom. By the end of this book, you will have an understanding of the energetic basis of vitalist and holistic medicine as well as the more common allopathic herbalist approach.

In Herbal Remedies for Health and Healing For Beginners, there are over 70 herbs detailed that can help over 20 common conditions and most have some scientific basis and research-backing of their benefits. The approach is both allopathic and holistic herbalism.

In Herbal Remedies for Health and Healing For Beginners, we lay the foundations of holistic and vitalist herbalism and outline the main teachings from our traditions - all of them support energetics - the foundations of why herbs and plants actually work.

This is not a book that hides the benefits of allopathic medicine—there are many. It is an honest consideration of the value of herbs and plants for healing and it will help you begin your journey—if you choose to take it.

Even better? You can find it in nature for free!

Learn the basics of herbalism and where it comes from and empower yourself to treat your own ailments with great success.

Wonderful herbalism resource!

Just in time for my new hobby of growing herbs! Herbal medicine really does wonders if done right, this book does a super job in sharing information of the research and practical ways to herbalism success! It touches on how to apply these natural remedies effectively and explains the benefits of traditional medicine. I like the part where it lets you know various types of these remedies so you know what medicine works depending on the ailment! The narration is well done with a good pace, making the information easy to absorb. Nature is your friend, learn how it looks out for your well-being! Highly recommended!

Favorited!

Woooow, this book is comprehensive! When I started shifting my lifestyle about 15 years ago to include "Clean Eating" and chemical-free household and personal products, I knew it was just the beginning. My home is full of homemade whipped body butter ingredients, essential oils and my mother and looked at some local herbal/ homeopathy classes! I literally was just remarking on wanting to learn foraging because I have a deep-seeded fear of being stranded in the wilderness and not knowing what's safe to eat. What I like about this book is that it breaks down the differences between ancient medicines and today "technological" advances that really only treat the symptoms and keep you sick versus focusing on prevention or natural healing. This book is going to be a permanent resource for me as it also discusses specific ailments. One in particular that interests me is the chapter on dementia as I come from a long line of fabulous ladies that have been stricken by it. I'm excited to go over this book with my mom and whip up some recipes for overall wellness. If I'm completely honest, I need to take a peek at the print version so I can take notes and thumb through specific sections... Gingko Biloba, here I come!

Great information!

I have always been curious about remedies that have been passed down through the generations of Indigenous and Chinese as I have heard amazing stories. Recently, I have been watching a TV show that shows people using natural medicines in the wilderness. As I was watching, I thought to myself....how do they know this stuff??? Well, on my own hunt for natural medicines for common issues, this book was a great starting place! It lists out multiple plants and uses and will be great for a beginner like me. I highly recommend it!
