Lowering High Blood Pressure
(ENGLISH TRANSLATION OUT OF PRINT)
The Three Type Holistic Approach
by Dr. Thomas Breittkreuz & Annette Bopp
Conventional treatments for high blood pressure often fail. Around half of patients who are prescribed medicines stop taking them, often because their doctor hasn’t taken a holistic view of the patient’s needs or life situation. Other patients feel there is no alternative to a life-long course of pills.
This book offers another way. The authors provide a tailored and holistic programme for anyone who suffers from high blood pressure, empowering them to discover which of the three core types of hypertension they suffer from: stress type, abdominal type or chaos type. They then outline tailor-made therapeutic programmes to care for body and soul, including nutrition, exercise and Anthroposophic therapies to suit each type.
The book includes real-life case studies, which also demonstrate the huge difference that this holistic approach can make.
In the Sun Born Over and Over
Over the years of Park Attwood’s life as an Anthroposophic Clinic, the patients who came, often found sustenance in texts by Rudolf Steiner and other writers during their stay at the clinic. They were sometimes introduced to these texts or found them for themselves in the bookcases at the Clinic. During their time at Park Attwood, reading often provided spiritual food and nurture.
Over the years these verses, meditations, prayers were collected by patients to benefit others that would stay at Park Attwood and in need of similar succor.
Eventually three of the therapy team, who by then had moved and worked elsewhere in other Anthroposophic organisations, decided to create a book of the collected texts and so a poetry book called ‘In the Sun Born Over and Over’ was born. This book spans one hundred and thirty-six pages of beautiful, meaningful poems, blessings and meditations.
When Park Attwood closed, the poetry book continued to be very popular in and around Anthroposophic communities and beyond and still is. PAFAM has continued to offer it to anyone who shows an interest in its content, taking it with us on our workshops, courses and community meetings.
The book is often bought as a gift for a friend after the original purchaser has worked and benefited from the words of wisdom held in their own copy. The intrinsic value and benefit of this book grows over time and it is suitable for anyone, each person working with it, as appropriate to them personally.
