The Self-Healing Cookbook:  Whole Foods To Balance Body, Mind and Moods
"A friend sent me your book and I am bowled over! It's a gem....a macrobiotic book with heart.  My husband was also highly impressed (please note that I don't usually get excited about cookbooks). --Anne Scott, Author, Serving Fire"The Self-Healing Cookbook is amazing!  I worked for 6 years in a natural foods store in Florida, and saw many people who were told to make drastic changes in their eating habits, yet left their doctor's office with little information to help them ease into this new lifestyle.  I did my best to help them--then I was blessed with this book!. . ."A customer brought it in--saying she felt like a good friend was speaking to her and supporting her as she cooked.  I loved it!  We ordered it that same day, and sold out of it within a week.  We recommended it left and right for our customers.  They invariably returned to share it with a friend--with absolutely wonderful feedback.  This book is such a breath of fresh air--especially helpful for anyone feeling overwhelmed by dietary changes.  Kristina's love comes through on every page." --Taryn Berris, The Netherlands, 1998Kristina is part of a small group of rurally-based cooks (I would include Meredith McCarty and Edward Espe Brown in this company), who've been guided to bring all of us back to a deep appreciation of the art and joy of wholesome home cooking and the sharing of simple food as a unifying ritual in our lives....What I love most about this book is that Kristina dares to be human.  She understands the needs of old and young, heavy or thin, sad or angry....In her clear, loving and down-to-earth way she entices us to bring our hidden fears around food out of the pantry....she wants the reader to not only learn to cook but to passionately enjoy cooking, free of guilt, pain and blame.... Nobody, and we mean nobody, who is going through a healing crisis or shifting to a more natural lifestyle should go another day without The Self-Healing Cookbook. --The Monk, Books on Revue, Autumn, 1988Wonderful!...One of the most practical and valuable books on macrobiotic healing." --Michael Tierra, Author, The Way of Herbs--This text refers to an alternatePaperbackedition.
