I have been asked to provide some reading material for those of you that are really interested in Naturopathy. I will provide both a book list and several websites / newsletters for you to follow.
Books
"The Wisdom of Menopause" - Dr. Christiane Northrup
- This book actually has bits and pieces for everyone. An AWESOME read with loads and loads of great information. I am not a fan of her email chain - it is more about what you want to buy rather than what you want to know... I am always more interested in an education. She is also on FB, if interested.
"The Good Carb Cookbook" - Sandra Woodruff
- This book has a lot of good info on the Glycemic Index. Honestly, I haven't used many of the recipes but I typically cook asian, when given the opportunity.
"Healthy Healing" - Linda Page
- This is an AWESOME book. Dr. Page has a fresh logical approach to natural medicine. There is so much info in here, that it will take a long time before I absorb it all. She is one the first references I turn to when I have a question.
"The Encyclopedia of Healing Foods" - Michael Murray
- Almost 1000 pages thick... excellent reference.
"Folk Medicine" - DC Jarvis
- This one goes back into old time medicine and is the reason I picked up this one!
"Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health" - Rosemary Gladstar
- This is probably my favorite book so far.. it is a tiny book packed with a big punch! Lots of ideas for men, women, kids, mental ailments, skin care regiment, etc... LOVE IT!
"Water Magic" - Mary Muryn
- Some lovely recipes for aromatherapy baths
"The Healing Aromatherapy Bath" - Margo Valentine Lazzara
- Margo goes into a lot of detail on the how and why of aromatherapy and includes wonderful recipes.
"Herbal Remedies" - Andrew Chevalier
- My favorite book on herbs - I just wish it was bigger. It has lots of pictures and gives multiple uses, the safeness of the herb and a lot of good information.
"The Way of Herbs" - Michael Tierra
- A requirement for school and a good reference material.
"The Complete Guide to Herbal Medicines" - Charles W Fetrow / Juan R Avila
- I was looking for some more detail for unusual herbs, and this was the most detailed one I could find. No pretty pictures though and not a deep dive into each herb.
"The Healing Powers of Vinegar" - Cal Orey
- Vinegar has so many different uses and benefits.... it is staggering! I wouldn't know where to start for you... get it...
"Guide to Intuitive Healing" - udith Orloff MD
- I am a very bohemian woman and think way outside the box when it comes to healing. Everyone has the ability to heal themselves... this is a good start.
"Energy Medicine" - Donna Eden
- This woman is AMAZING. I can't praise her enough. I am an avid follower and believe completely in the power of energy healing. I have seen it work. She has her own website and teaches energy healing. I do subscribe to her newsletter.
"Natural Health, Natural Medicine" - Andrew Weil
- Dr Weil was one of the first Naturopaths I followed, but I have had some issues with several of the directives he has made. Overall, he is good. He has his own website, but I don't subscribe any longer to his newsletter.
