These Links and Resources are opportunities for learning and growth. Check them out!
I am pleased to offer you these links and resources which provide different perspectives on the concept of holistic medicine. I am reminded of the Native American concept of “medicine” which refers at the very least to our being in right relationship with the earth and with each other. Natural wellness must be connected to healthy families, and a sense of living on the earth as a part of the great web of all life. I think you will get a feel for some of these different perspectives in the resources here, with information on topics from medicinal herbs to energy healing.
