Although this book has a variety of health tips, they're primarily of a variety that you could find in the healthy lifestyle section of various magazines (e.g. Ladies Home Journal). Might be informative for those with almost no wellness or self-care knowledge, but for the most part the info is VERY basic ("Health 101"). This book is not for those seeking profound answers. However, it IS clearly intended to benefit those promoting chiropractic care. While I like my chiropractor, and think chiropractors have more wellness training than M.D.s, they don't have all the answers any more than M.D.s do. Moreover, for anyone looking for chiropractic wellness advice, there are better books out there than this (based solely on my reading of books offered in my chiropractor's waiting area - sorry I can't remember any of the titles offhand). I am widely read in health and wellness books, and found this one to be very disappointing.

This is the best book, by far, that I have ever read about how each of us can help solve America's health care crisis, while enjoying the benefits of optimal health.

A very easy read. Packed full of practical information and research. A must-have for anyone with an interest in health and wellness. Higly recommended.

When I first opened this book, I thought it was just going to be another "cookie-cutter" health and fitness "how to" book. Boy, was I wrong! This book is filled with things I never even thought about! I've always heard the saying, "you are what you eat" but I never heard "you are what you THINK!" The bottom line is, if you want to have a healthy body, you have to have healthy thoughts and emotions. Just as it's important to avoid toxic chemicals, it's important to avoid toxic thoughts. Easier said then done, but I'm practicing what I learned in Discover Wellness and I already see some impressive improvements.

Discover Wellness is a book that is chock full of extraordinary information related to how YOU can take control of your health and have a better life.
The authors are articulate and right on with their suggestions!
A must read......

Fantastic book and long overdue! The paradym is shifting away from the drug & surgery model which doesn't work anyway. This book shows the way down an alternative path with my (your) health and wellness as the payoff!
Read it!

This book gives plenty of ideas to utilize in every day life. Please pick this up and start using today!

An excellent book,I even ordered one for my granddaughter. The book covers a multitude of questions and a lot of things I never thought to ask. It is well written in easy to understand language. I highly recommend it to any one who is health conscious and wants to stay healthy.

This book clearly explains what wellness and how to achieve it. Yes, it may seem like an ad for chiropractors, but not many people know how chiropractic is beneficial outside of neck and back pain. It also is a one stop resource for healthy eating habits, exercise habits, and a good way to restore you mental vitality. THIS IS WHAT WELLNESS IS ABOUT.

I first noticed this book when it jumped onto the Amazon chart at #4 on Feb 22. On that day all 21 five star reviews were written on Feb 21, and there was an obvious "buy attack" arranged by either the publisher or the authors, or both so that the book would hit the Amazon bestseller list. This book has nothing more in it than a couple of magazine articles would cover. In fact, it may not even have been writen by the authors, but purchased by them, because Center Path Publishing "sells" finished books for the medical profession. Tell them what topic you want to cover, pay for it, and presto, you'll be a published author. Every day since this book came out the numbers have gotten larger, and it will inevitably go nowhere. Should we be cynical about this junk? You bet. The authors should be ashamed of themselves for playing us for fools. Hope being published was worth it.

Written by Dr. Bob Hoffman and Dr. Jason A. Deitch, Discover Wellness: How Staying Healthy Can Make You Rich is a guide to not only improving one's health and quality of life, but also foster pocketbook savings in the process. Chapters are filled with simple, time-tested methods for fostering improved health, from consciously applying better posture to promote spinal health to simple stretches ideal for engendering flexibility to guidelines for proper nutrition and exercise, the value of eating organic foods, and much more. Discover Wellness is simply a no-nonsense guide to help more people become less sick through inexpensive and easy-to-follow guidelines, and while not a substitute for a doctor's care, is decidedly invaluable for its practical preventative measures. Highly recommended.
