Review Quotes:
"Cynthia Li has written a second book on healing from within that is just as profound and intimate as her first, Brave New Medicine. A medical doctor, a patient with a debilitating and mysterious autoimmune disease, and a mother, she beautifully and convincingly captures the new realm of medicine--of flow, harmony, stillness--in which she found healing. Any page I turned to offered me a gem of insight and instruction. I'll turn to it again and again."
