Why do I have this problem? Where did it come from? And, how do I fix it? Basing his answers on twenty-two years of clinical practice using natural healing methods, Dr. Scott Monk, addresses these questions in his third book, Balanced. At first glance, there seems to be an endless number of ways the body falls into illness, disrepair and disease. In truth, there are only a handful. And just one is responsible for a vast majority of doctor visits, prescribed medications and causes of death. Dr. Monk explains that a combination of acquired and accumulated stresses within what he calls, our Core 4 – Genetics, Lifestyle, Chemistry and Emotions – has stoked the fire of the fight-or-flight response, destabilizing the body’s means of vitality and healing. From the troublesome to the terrifying, nearly all ailments and illnesses begin, and sometimes never end, because of an imbalance in the body’s essential survival chemistry. Everyone has felt its effects; while many have been caught for years in its grip, desperately looking for ways to be set free. There is very good news. The cause is well-known and well-described, the effects are common and predictable, and so a precise path to recovery – The Balanced Body Plan – can be followed to restore health. It is time to discover how your diet is making you anxious, how your exercise is harming your hormones, how foods you “love” are inflaming your tissues, and how your lifestyle might be promoting autoimmune disease. In other words, it is time to learn how the body really works and how to treat it properly. It is time to get Balanced.
