Silver Nautilus Book Award Winner for Health & Healing
An antacid or an aspirin may soothe your pain, but it doesn’t cure the cause of your symptoms. Headaches, indigestion, fatigue, allergies, anxiety, eczema, high blood pressure, and other conditions are clues to a deeper imbalance in your body, and learning to read those clues is a key step in maintaining optimal health. Herbalist Maria Noël Groves shows you how to read your body’s signals and support your own wellness with herbal remedies and other natural treatments. You’ll learn how each of your major body systems — respiratory, digestive, immune, nervous, memory, reproductive, circulatory, and more — optimally functions, and you’ll discover how to use natural remedies to nourish and repair problem areas, restore lost vitality, support your body as a whole, and prevent future problems. Groves includes in-depth instructions, with step-by-step photographs, for making your own herbal remedies, as well as expert guidance on buying and effectively using commercial preparations.

My Favorite Book of All Timeâ¡â¡â¡
This is my favorite book of all time. It’s the best, most thorough and fascinating book I’ve ever read on herbs and natural healing. It just goes way above and beyond what one would expect.If you’re experiencing any health issues, chronic pain, chronic illness, inflammation, chronic fatigue, low energy, gut problems, and other symtoms and diagnoses, this is absolutely the book for you.If you’re a caretaker, if you feel burned out and stressed, if you’re interested in helping other people and caring for your loved ones, if you care at all about maintaining good mental, emotional and physical health for years to come, THIS IS THE BOOK.There are great herbal tea recipes for specific health issues, clear, concise descriptions, and safety warnings on all types of herbs.This book covers such a huge variety of health problems, including mental and physical issues, that I can’t imagine someone not being able to relate to it.I’m totally blown away and impressed by all this thorough, carefully researched information. The beautiful pictures are helpful, showing a variety of herbs, and each page is full of helpful info, tips, advice and instructions. It feels like this book was written specifically for me and my purpose in life, to heal myself, and to help others through their life struggles.I particularly love the sections on adaptogenic herbs. I feel like everyone and anyone could greatly benefit from these naturally calming and relaxing remedies. Adaptogens are herbs that help you deal with stress by calming your nervous system and allowing you to handle problems with a cooler head and less anxiety. Every single system in the body is explained with the specific herbs and blends that assist them effectively. I feel excitement every time I open it, because I know I’m about to learn something new and absolutely relevant. I look through, read, and highlight the pages every single day. Then I share my newfound knowledge.”Body into Balance” is the perfect source for people to begin their journey of self-discovery, self-help, herbal teas, and DIY herbal remedies.If everyone could read this book, I honestly think the world could be much healthier, more aware, and more empathetic than it is now. The book covers every possible health topic and offers realistic solutions for people of all ages and situations.Maria Noel Groves did an incredible job writing this book and I commend her for her ability to connect with and help heal so many people everywhere. I personally wish to thank her for her obvious compassion, knowledge, experience, and willingness to support others. Like i said- Best health book ever.

THIS BOOK IS AMAZING
I bought two herb books and this was the BEST. I’m so fascinated with all the different types of herbs. This is a super actionable book, beautiful art and photos, easy to digest – you can start your herb journey immediately, the charts are amazing and it even has recipes.

Beginner friendly
This book is amazing!!!! Iâm new to the holistic lifestyle and was looking for something that was beginner friendly and effective. The beginning of the book is a nice introductory on how herbs work and gets you to feel not so overwhelmed by the idea of it all. I like how she built my confidence and made me comfortable with the idea, as I thought this was going to be a difficult journey that required deep intense study before using anything, when in fact by the time I was finished with this book I was very comfortable with trying out numerous remedies. Each chapter she explains a body function and how it works in a basic easy to understand way. Then she gets into the different beneficial herbs for common ailments and symptoms. Each herb comes with a detailed explanation on what itâs for and the best way to use it as well as side effects or precautions that should be taken. This book has definitely encouraged me to go deeper into my holistic journey and canât wait to learn more

There is SO MUCH useful information packed into this beautifully designed book! Highly recommend for a deeper dive into the benefits of herbal & plant allies. My only complaint, as a botanical skincare formulator, is if you are making her body cream (p.318) which includes water, a preservative must be added.
