In my view, the best way to heal your body and mind is through self learning. Thankfully we live in an age where access to information that can lead us to a healthy state is just few clicks away and in most cases extremely cheap as well. During my search for ways to heal my body I read a number of books covering a broad spectrum of healing protocols using nutrition. I also saw a huge array of health related documentaries and you tube videos from a number of health experts. These resources kept me engaged and motivated (Sometimes it does get a bit lonely on a health centred diet) and i recommend them highly (just for that simple reason). Here is a short list of resources that have personally helped me move along on the road to recovery.
If you have a resource (s) that has helped you in your journey towards health, please share with us using the contact us page.
