This was ok, she has a variation on the popular theme that's making the headlines today. Eat better, exercise better, think better, and you will heal yourself eventually. If the subject interests you, it's worth reading. I got some good ideas from her, but I don't think I would do her complete program.

Vicky Vlachonis is an osteopath and musculoskeletal specialist that works with a lot of celebrities and dancers. Her holistic approach to pain management is what has made her famous among these celebrity circles and she believes that chronic pain can be managed through better habits.

The big focus on pain is, of course, on sleep. Of course, most habits in this book do feel intuitive, but I needed reminding. From creating sleeping rituals that help your body to fall into better sleep to understanding the trigger points on your body to help relieve pain to food choices that can improve digestion. These tips make you think about where your pain stems from and help you find better ways to repair it.

Intuitive, perhaps, but a year of broken sleep makes me so thankful for this book and finally getting restorative sleep. If you have broken sleep or suffer from chronic pain, this is a book worth checking out.

Toxins! Toxins everywhere!

The book encourages is only ideal for a single person with no partner or children, who had extra money for hard-to-find food, and extra time to put towards a full 8 hours of sleep, an extra hour in the morning for stretching, and meditation, as well as a job that allowed for a small nap in the afternoon.

Agree with her holistic view of treating our bodies. Nutrition, yoga, meditation and exercise being important tools for increased health.

A really interesting book, but I've been exposed to this type of thought with physical psychology, this also looks at pain and problem areas and uses relaxation, self-care and positive thought to help with emotional issues to combat chronic pain. Anyone suffering chronic pain who especially doesn't want to go about swallowing loads of drugs, then giving this a try is well worth it. Even if you find it a bit airy fairy, the reality is, none of her recommendations can hurt you, so go for it!
