Book: Healing Anxiety Naturally
Healing Anxiety Naturally
Categories: Wellness, Happiness, Natural Medicine
Author: Harold H. Bloomfield, MD
I can’t say enough good things about this book. The copy given to me by a friend is an older version called Healing Anxiety With Herbs (Harold H. Boomfield, M.D.). As I read through it, I kept saying to myself: but that’s a strategy for happiness (or wellness) – it has nothing to do with herbs … great strategy though. So, I like the new title much more. It aptly reflects the core truth of this book: if you live naturally, optimistically, pay attention to your own needs and biorhythms, eat right and get enough sleep and exercise you will soon be not only healthy, but happy.

Happiness comes from sticking at things that often seem mundane, prosaic, boring, unglamorous ~ Alexander McCall Smith
Giving thanks may make you happier
Did you know there’s science to being happy? Watch Harvard researcher Nancy Etcoff’s TED talk on The surprising science of happiness.
A study administered by two scientists whose work focuses specifically on how gratitude affects happiness – psychologists, Dr. Robert A. Emmons of the University of California and Dr. Michael E. McCullough of the University of Miami – proved that expressions of gratitude (you thanking someone else, or G-d, or yourself) increased people’s own happiness and enhanced their lives in various ways.
