I am ever in the process of consolidating my blog, so I decided that it would be a good idea to pop some of the wonderful books I have read in one place, right here with my own ☼ rating.
I hope you find these titles as interesting or as helpful as I did. I will add to these as I read on 🙂
Absolutely brilliant read! A down to earth and upfront account on real life on the road as an international artist. Candid, comical and compelling! I’m ready for book two – bring it!

Workin’ It: Ru Pauls Guide to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Style
Learning from Ru Paul helped to keep me uplifted throughout my chemotherapy, watching all the Drag Race seasons and of course this book which covers so much from style tips to sheer positivity. Workin’ It! from world-renowned recording artist, television host, and drag queen RuPaul, provides helpful and provocative tips on fashion, beauty, style, and confidence for girls and boys, both straight and gay—and everyone in between! Pictured is an excerpt from the book and the view from the amazing Sha Wellness Clinic, which I made sure I visited as soon as I was in total remission from Hodgkins Lymphoma. “Yep, I choose joy”.

To make the journey into The Power of Now we will need to leave our analytical mind and its false created self, the ego, behind. Although the journey is challenging, Eckhart Tolle offers simple language and a question and answer format to guide us. I really like the audio version of this book, so much that I have downloaded it twice! A great insight into watching the thinker and learning how to live in the ‘now’ which is the only time that we are able to control, right now in the present moment.

Controlling Crohn’s Disease: The Natural Way
Drawn from the author Virginia Harper’s own experiences as a sufferer of Crohn’s and other illnesses, the book details her challenges and how she regained health by following a macrobiotic diet. Disease free for over 30 years and a practitioner at The SHA Wellness Clinic in Alicante, Spain (Which is amazing, I finally visited this fantastic place)!
I would recommended this book if you wish for a better understanding of Crohn’s disease as a sufferer, or a friend of retaliative of someone who is. Although a macrobiotic lifestyle may not be the answer for everyone it clearly was for Virginia.

Breaking the Vicious Cycle: Intestinal Health Through Diet
This great book details the relationships between food and intestinal disorders such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, celiac disease, cystic fibrosis of the pancreas, and other forms of chronic diarrhea. A discussion of the cycle of events occurring in the intestine of those with problems and how the Specific Carbohydrate Diet™ can break this cycle and permit the body to regain normal functioning.
Once again a SCD diet may not be for everyone, but it is certainly one of the easiest to follow (comparied to GAPS and strict Paleo IMO). I began my changes in diet after reading this book and pursued allergy testing to fine tune my own individual diet.
