This covers Phil’s story of the onset of symptoms, the despair and pain that followed, the frustrations with the doctors’ ineffective chemical approaches, and finally finding success through diet, lifestyle and emotional balancing. There are laughs and a wealth of practical advice on subjects seldom touched upon such as ketosis, cold thermogenesis, circadian rhythms and delving into the real root causes – our myriad ways of not loving ourselves or our circumstances, which eventually manifests in disease as the body follows suit. It’s a tale of discovery, failures, successes, awakenings and ultimate surrender. It’s like no other story of recovery that you have ever read. Forewords by well known neurosurgeon Dr. Jack Kruse and naturopath Gabrielle Heyes. Cover artwork by Karen Halewood.
From Amazon.com and .co.uk reviews:
"I read the book thinking it was just about diet. It is so much more than that. I'm battling with type 2 diabetes and chemical addiction. This book has inspired me to tackle both as both are linked to physical and emotional problems. It's not simply a cure for arthritis, it's an antidote to the modern world. Thank you." JC.
"…this book is one that should be read by all people who suffer from autoimmune diseases – no, make that ‘all diseases’, because the contents are healing as well as extraordinarily entertaining. Highly Recommended." – Grady Harp (Hall of Fame, Top 100 reviewer, Vine Voice).
“Phil went through every up and down imaginable when faced with a debilitating disease and you will nod and smile in recognition. I love this book! It gave me courage to face fear and victim mentality and change toxic habits running through my life. Thanks Phil!” – Martin Nuttall.
“…not only is the title completely sincere but a clear case is made that deep healing and beyond can take place if we learn to listen to what our suffering is trying to tell us. Although this book is mainly targeted towards those who suffer from arthritis, I would say the simple guidelines and concepts of healing put forth are fundamental to most or perhaps all illnesses and even useful to those in good health who are looking for a boost… Ultimately, this book goes even deeper than self-healing and for me, Phil's account of his own spiritual awakening is the true beating-heart here and was revelatory enough for me to get on skype with Phil and leech some of his wisdom! With Phil's help, my issues with chronic fatigue and anxiety are improving and I recommend getting a hold of him while he's still accessible and on the cusp of book fame!" – Gen T.
“Phil's book, just like the author, is a dynamic and multifaceted gem. This book is so incredibly heartfelt and well articulated… This book is written in a very accessible and entertaining manner, while at the same time being so personable and brutally honest. The essential truths about the nature of suffering, healing, and life that Phil presents are so genuine and powerfully portrayed.” – Jessica.
“…because he also adds so much of his own personal history so that you know that he has tried everything he recommends, this is what makes it so fascinating to read and something you can definitely trust.” – A.C. Johnson.
“I can say this with confidence, having implemented several of Phil's recommended protocols and having seen results right from the first few days of putting them into practice. The added bonus with this book is that actually it is engaging, funny and reads like a captivating novel.” – Miss F. A. Campbell.
"You won't die if you don't read this book but if you do read it, you'll certainly laugh a few times, learn new and exciting things, experience real surprise, and come away amazed by Phil's before and after photos. Laughter, learning, surprise and amazement… I can't think of a better way to spice up these next moments in your life (and, possibly, years of moments after that). Buy this book." – Cheryl Abram, author of Firing God.
