NATURAL ALTERNATIVES

Mind Boosters
Ashwagandha is a shrub cultivated in India and North America whose roots have been used for thousands of years by Ayurvedic practitioners as a folk remedy. In "Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)" Ray Sahelian, M.D. alerts us to several studies that indicate that ashwagandha has antioxidant properties and influences brain chemistry.


Healthy Alternatives
Spinal manual therapy, of which chiropractors are the primary providers, has now been shown by reputable researchers to be the most demonstrably effective healing method for the most common kinds of lower back pain. Each year brings the publication of more studies, gradually expanding the range of conditions for which chiropractic should be considered a treatment of choice. In "Chiropractic: An Alternative Healing Art Enters The Mainstream" Daniel Redwood D.C. traces the history and development of this complex legacy.

MIND-BODY-SPIRIT

Mind Body Tips
There is an accumulation of evidence that chronic hostility and chronic depression are major risk factors in heart disease. For many patients, it may be as important to learn and practice skills for managing these emotional states as it is to quit smoking, manage cholesterol, and exercise. In "Hostility, Depression and Heart Disease" David S. Sobel, M.D. outlines the statistics and suggests solutions.


Music and Wellness
In "Got Rhythm? the first of a 2-part series on recreational music-making" Barry Bittman, M.D. relates how most people view themselves as not musical. Yet when given the chance to express themselves musically without critique, it's amazing how fast people join in and make music. Why is there such a dramatic and sudden turnaround for these folks? The answer probably lies in our past where impressions of self were progressively chiseled in stone over many formidable years.
