This is a powerful yet accessible guide to how you can self-treat or extend your acupuncture treatments at home between sessions.

Nan Lu's books provide a nice introduction into the basic theories of Chinese medicine, including how food energetics affect your health. This book is a nice guide if you want a better understanding of the philosophies of Chinese medicine and are looking for ideas on how to create a healthy lifestyle according to those philosophies.    

This book's theoretical background is similar to Nan Lu's Weight Loss book above, but he also talks more specifically about meridians and energetics that affect women. He provides dietary recommendations, simple exercises, and other lifestyle recommendations in a friendly manner. A nice resource to have even if you're not a breast cancer patient or survivor!  

This is a great cookbook that compiles nutritional wisdom from different cultures. There is so much knowledge integrated into food traditions, and this book shows you how to utilize that information in your kitchen. Some of the recipes may take more time and prep, but the results are worth it. We so often forget to slow down and take time and pleasure in preparing our food! If you have kids or are expecting, this is a wonderful source for learning how to give yourself and your family a great nutritional foundation! Feeling calmer, more balanced and more focused are just a few results that both kids and adults enjoy from eating thoughtfully and well.      

This book is a treat for the eyes and will change your perception of your physical body. Beautiful and often surprising shapes, patterns and lines are revealed through different imaging technology.  I use this book to help patients visualize healing processes in their bodies during and after treatment, and I enjoy flipping through it whenever I have a free moment.
