Acknowledgments

Thank you Trixie, Geeta, Shavika, Allison, Rubina, Steve, Paola, Marnee, Shelan, Anoma, Karen, Nita, Cheeko, Jess, Louisa and all my friends for making this book possible. Thank you Daniel of Dlight graphics for the illustrations. Thank you to my family for always being there for me. Thank you to the entire team of FIMAFRICA and all volunteers for your support and inspiration - I hope we can continue this amazing work. Thank you to all my patients for being with me on this journey and helping me learn so much from you. Thank you to all my teachers at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine for inspiring me so much on this path of healing, and to my gestalt teachers for awakening my understanding of transforming consciousness. Transforming consciousness is a new path that we all must take, I believe, in order to uncover our strengths as well as our vulnerabilities, which is where our true power begins.

Who Am I, And Why Did I Write This Book?

I am a naturopathic doctor and practice a form of psychotherapy known as gestalt therapy. I help a lot of people with emotional problems through counseling and also by improving the health of their bodies. My job is both satisfying and frustrating because, as youve probably noticed, people with physical and emotional problems have a very tough time getting better.

Some take a lot of medicines or nutritional and herbal supplements and yet never resolve their emotional issues. Others go for counseling or read positive mindset books but never heal their bodies. This book shows you how to combine holistic medicine with positive thinking, since it is necessary to heal both your mind and body together in order to recover completely.

This book combines my personal experience and proven therapies I use with my patients to bring long-term relief from sadness, emotional pain, depression, anxiety, fear, irritability, stress, dissatisfaction, fatigue, and many other emotional issues. I have personally benefitted from these techniques and so have many of my patients who are now happier and emotionally stronger.

Even though the focus of this book is your emotional wellbeing, by following my advice you can resolve numerous other ailments, including digestive issues, hormonal problems, skin issues, obesity, asthma, joint problems, and other chronic diseases, since a large focus of this book is about reducing inflammation, stress and imbalance in your body the major causes of most chronic diseases.

Here is what you will learn in this book.

Part 1 introduces different factors which affect your emotions. Youll learn how physical factors affect your emotional experiences. Ill show you how stressful experiences have a long term impact on emotional wellbeing and I give you powerful mental techniques to heal from stress and painful emotional experiences. Youll find out how to resolve turbulent emotions, change negative thoughts and beliefs, rewire your brain and develop more positive thoughts and habits to become more emotionally resilient and remain well for longer.

Part 2 teaches you how your body affects your mind. I go into detail about your brain chemicals and how organs other than your brain play a key role in emotional wellbeing. This is something which doctors usually dont discuss or treat. You learn how diet, lifestyle and environmental toxins affect your body and mind, rendering you prone to recurrent bouts of emotional instability. You will learn to create balance throughout your body and heal the root cause of your emotional ill health using herbs, diet, lifestyle changes, yoga, breathing techniques and other powerful therapies. These therapies reduce the likelihood of you relapsing into emotional un-wellness. They reinforce your mental strength, build emotional resilience and help you remain healthy. You can read Part 2 before Part 1 or interchange between the two parts because it is vital to heal your mind and your body concurrently.

Part 3 discusses how energy affects your mind and your body and why energetic healing, counseling and psychotherapy can be so important to your long term wellbeing. You will also understand how to use different homeopathic remedies, Bach flower remedies, nutritional supplements, acupuncture points and herbal remedies so that you can treat the root cause of your issues and remain healthy.

Even though I use the terms anxiety and depression liberally throughout this book, I have written it for anyone who wants to feel better. The advice in this book is useful for anyone who wants to be less stressed, heal from past stressful experiences, or just wants to feel more energized, healthy and positive. We all experience difficult situations in our lives that we need to heal from.

Unfortunately, surveys indicate that many people avoid seeking treatment or even refuse to admit that they have a problem because of the negative stigma associated with emotional problems. Some people think they will be judged as being weak or incapable of coping with life, not realizing that they have a very treatable condition that stems from very reasonable and non-shameful causes. Some people think their depressed emotions are part of their core personality and that they do not have emotional issues, so they do not seek help. Sadly, many of these people do not get help in time and let their life deteriorate further, sometimes even to the point of suicide.

It is not the goal of this book to replace medical advice. My goal is to help you treat the root cause of your emotional issues and resolve unfinished emotional experiences that contribute to your current emotional state, and to enable you to make healthier decisions for your road to wellbeing. I also hope that psychiatrists will read this book and look beyond mere medications to help people feel better. You might find that by using the techniques in this book you will require less medication. Please be responsible with your health and consult with a qualified professional before changing any of your medications or using some of the therapies described here.
