Book Recommendations
Welcome to Book Recommendations by Angel.
There have been many books that have changed my perspective in my life and offered a new path to understanding my self deeper in areas of my menstrual cycle, my emotional body, gut health, anatomy, spirituality, relationships and more.
I have had many conversations with women in sessions who have not understood their cycle and how it affects them on a deeper than physical level and have been in this place as well. I have had many conversations with my clients who have had no idea about chakras, their muscles or why they may be holding chronic pain and tension in areas of their body.
My goal is to help you love your body again, to align yourself with your heart and spirit, to find peace and harmony within…
So, here I offer some book recommendations that have opened many new doors for me and have taught me things I wish I had learned years ago.

Medical Medium: Secrets Behind Chronic and Mystery Illness and How to Finally Heal
I got into this one because I had candida overgrowth. It truly helped. I can say I have healed my gut with his Celery Juice detox in a a significant way and still am on that journey. This one is a bible for me. Gut Health is key to optimal health and function of the body.
This book reveals the true causes of chronic symptoms, conditions, and diseases that medical communities continue to misunderstand or struggle to understand at all. It explores the solutions for dozens of the illnesses that plague us, including Lyme disease, fibromyalgia, adrenal fatigue, ME/CFS, hormonal imbalances, Hashimoto's disease, MS, RA, depression, neurological conditions, chronic inflammation, autoimmune disease, blood sugar imbalances, colitis and other digestive disorders, and more.
These are some of my bibles, I refer to often and dive deep into when necessary. I find that my chronic hip tightness is lessened with a combination of yoga, movement, a clean diet, and mucho aqua.
There are so many paths to healing the body, massage is a great key to surrendering into the body itself and raising awareness to what is happening deep within you.
The connection to the hip flexors to the diaphragm to a rounded shoulder posture and shortness of breath is an all rounded journey.
It takes time to heal trauma, and reverse held tension. Our emotions are deeply connected and the more we can sit with ourselves, discover our humanness and accept that we are in a constant cycle, the quicker we can be at peace with ourselves, and through that others around us.
Love, Angel
