" It is fantastic and gives me so many ideas - this is just what should be incorporated into the NHS for patients and also for staff" Alison Grimston, holistic GP " The book is very inspiring. I like the fact the chapters are easy to read and use, as well as thought provoking. It is also good that you really address the reader so it feels very personal and as though someone cares." Georgia Constance, nurse, UK " I found the information presented to be clear and reader friendly while at the same time setting out "tasks" which embark the reader on a path of self discovery. Well done." Valentina Bellicova, Vancouver, Ca Price: £9.99
