Why read it?
1 author picked Ancestral Medicine as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Daniel Foor is one of my favorite teachers/authors on this topic. He really knows what he’s talking about, and, in addition, he’s a deeply thoughtful and compassionate man.

If you have a chance to take a class with Daniel, especially one based on this book, I highly recommend it!
From Lisa's list on exploring ancestral/generational trauma and healing.
