The Comprehensive Guide to Herbal Remedies – A Traditional Holistic Approach to Ailments and Wellness
~Laurel Bennett
As my husband likes to call it, hippie healing, holistic approaches are making a bigger appearance in common households looking to divert away from big pharma and excessive chemicals. Being raised around a sister who has whole-heartedly believed in holistic everything, I've always been exposed to herbal remedies and alternative cleaning solutions using natural ingredients.
The Comprehensive Guide to Herbal Remedies is a wonderful resource that provides readers with in-depth information regardless of whether they are a beginner or experienced herbal practitioner. From the very beginning, readers are introduced to an overview of what holistic wellness involves and how to utilize the information provided in the book. Each chapter covers various ailments or wellness concerns with recipes on how to create and use each. The conclusion of the book is a great resource on what type of herbal garden to grow at home, including a wide variety of herbs that can be used in the recipes included in the book.
The one thing, in my opinion, that would have rounded out this book and made it more than just a resource for referencing, but a complete go-to-guide, would have been an introduction before the chapters on ailments/wellness of commonly used herbs in the book. But, overall this is a great resource for referencing along with a comprehensive book on herbs to guide you through some of the most common ailments – treatment and prevention.
As always, all opinions and reviews are of my own volition. I have not been promised any compensation, current or future, by the author or publisher for a fair and honest review.
