Beauty and Fashion
When it comes to beauty and fashion, helpful books abound. Books such as James Wong’s book entitled ‘Grow Your Own Drugs Easy Recipes for Natural Remedies and Beauty Treats’. James Wong has a MSc in Ethnobotany from the University of Kent so he knows his subject. Basically, the book covers all the various natural remedies that you can grow and distill in your own garden to use as complementary therapies and to produce many natural beauty products. It is certainly an interesting book and pops a lot of questions into your mind – read it to find out what I mean!

Complementary Medicine
James Wong’s book naturally drifts over into the sector on complementary medicine and, I would reiterate – this book is certainly worthy of more than a cursory glance. Another interesting and useful book on complementary medicine is Louisa L. Hay’s book ‘You Can Heal Your Life’, a book that has been a bestseller for a number of years. Apart from the interesting and useful information contained within the pages of her book, you will find exquisite illustrations by Joan Perrin Falquet on each page. Apart from highly recommending this book, I would suggest you read this book in conjunction with Rhonda Byrne’s ‘The Secret’ – each book complements the other and offers very closely similar messages. » Read more: Health, Family & Lifestyle Books

Health and Wellness Articles Better Than Printed Books

But more and more of the health and wellness information that gets published on the Internet is reviewed and verified by medical professionals. Sites such as Web MD and Enhanced Healing have lots of top quality articles written andor reviewed by doctors. These sites grow every day, too.

The amount of health information that is to be found everywhere is mind-blowing, just staggering. As a result, it can be daunting to try to find it all for yourself in printed books. Going to the book stores, browsing through the indices, trying to figure out what sounds more authentic than something else…

All these tasks are highly time-consuming and can be difficult. Even more, it’s easy to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on health and wellness books and magazines. These then collect dust or grow into piles because the information you want is scattered between them all, and many of them have repeat information anyway. » Read more: Health and Wellness Articles Better Than Printed Books
