Psychoneuroimmunology and NLP by Nancy Blake As practitioners or clients of complementary therapies, we are constantly made aware of the split between ‘science-based’ allopathic medicine, which mostly looks at symptoms of ‘diseases’, single causes and single ‘cures’, and our practice, which attempts to understand the whole individual in the context of the entire environment, external and internal. Article Summaries Nourishing Women through Menopause and Beyond - The Wise Woman Way by Susun S Weed The Wise Woman tradition of healing is not new, and is based on nourishing and tonifying women through the menopause rather than aiming to fix them, balance them, affect their hormones or sedate their symptoms. It views the menopause as a positive rather than a negative event.
