David Hoffmann Bücher

Gegen Stress ist ein Kraut gewachsen - Das hat sich in der Praxis des erfahrenen Ganzheitsmediziners David Hoffmann zeigt. Gerade bei stressbedingten Krankheiten und Beschwerden helfen Heolpflanzen oft besser als "harte" Medikamente, mit denen zwar kurzfristig rasch die Symptome beseitigt, die Krankheiten aber nicht wirklich kuriert weren können. Der Körper verlangt nach sanften, natürlichen Heilmethoden, um auf die Dauer wirklich zu gesunden. Hier können Kräuter helfen, können entspannen, Linderung und allmählich Heilung bringen. Wie sie dies tun und wie man sie richtig anwendet, darüber informiert ausführlich dieses übersichtlich gegliederte und mit einem alphabetischen Verzeichnis der Krankheiten versehene Buch.
