The Immune Power Personality: 7 Traits You Can Develop to St

I've always loved this book and have read it a few times. What's cool about this book is that it is so understandable and useful to the everyday person while including ample reference to research supporting the "traits" and the "preventive" strategies suggested. It's also intriguing enough to hold the attention of the average mental health professional. If you have any interest in learning more about the "mind-body" connection and how you can use it to your advantage, check out this book!

A Boon to Health and Well-Being

This was a great find. It is a fascinating book about the science of mind-body connection, but also a very practical helpful book with exercises and advice that cut much deeper than most of the mind-body books I've read. The scientists discussed are all intriguing characters. Real science, real info on how to enhance your emotional life and immune system at the same time. I can already tell it is helping me with many issues and health problems associated with my immune system. The 7 Traits for immunity are all right on--I was most intrigued by the work on confiding, assertiveness, and self-complexity. A terrific read.

great "pop" review of medical studies to improve your health

This is actually a great book. Recent medical discoveries are depicted in lay terms, easy to read and, yes, even groovy. For example, one medical study showed that a 20-minute journal writing exercise, done daily, helped people's immune systems. And Mr. Dreher instructs you how to do it all at home. Following the exercises will help your health, I should think, and certainly your mental help. Fun, but serious; good for inner healing.
