Book excerpt: This book will reestablish how you look at health, happiness, and fulfillment. Raymond Rickards draws on his decades of experience as a chiropractor seeing thousands of patients with a variety of ailments to share insights and strategies to help you move toward vibrant health. In straightforward language—and without any additional sales pitch—he provides a blueprint that will help you: • free yourself from the rut of sickness and disease; • find a more uplifting approach to health and well-being; • develop habits that will help you attain optimum health. The author also shares his personal story of growing up in Los Angeles, where he was indoctrinated with mainstream medical thinking and religious dogma. While it was not easy to find the courage to explore diverse ways of thinking, it changed his life, paving the way for him to have more vigor and health at age sixty-nine than most thirty-year-old men. Get practical, proven ways to bolster your health and move toward a vibrant life with the lessons and insights in Awaken the Doctor from Within.
