This book addresses issues pertaining to health that are not typically included in general health promotion texts, such as immune enhancement, nutritional supplements, financial health, work, building healthy relationships, healing environments, alternative therapies, partnering with your health care provided, and surviving caregiving.

In addition to presenting solid theory, a unique feature of this book is that the chapters were written by holistic nurses who share wisdom and insights based on experience in developing and implementing holistic care. Many of these nurses have been the trailblazers in the specialty of holistic nursing and developed models that others now follow.
