Anthony Minghella talks to The Times

We were thrilled to read this article by Anthony Minghella in The Times Online. Perhaps our favourite part was this: "Part of Dr Xiaolan's method is to treat the person in a holistic way, recognising that the mind and the heart play some part in health and that maintenance can prevent more serious problems. She talked about lifestyle changes, about how to be kinder to myself. I found myself telling her more than I have ever shared with a Western doctor, and I found myself making a great and lasting friend." Thank you, Anthony!

A new title for the UK!

Xiaolan's book is now available in the UK. We're proud to be working with Virago Press, and we have a new title for a new market. Read more about Traditional Chinese Medicine for Women on Virago's website.

Rave review from the Winnipeg Free Press

Christopher Butler is a doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Winnipeg, and so we were thrilled to read his extremely positive and thoughtful review in the Winnipeg Free Press. It's hard to pick a favourite quote, but here's one: "For any woman looking to deepen her understanding of self, this book could be considered essential. For any man in the process of developing compassion for a woman experiencing her uniqueness, this could help to enlighten the mystery."

Shared Vision shares our vision

In his review of Reflections, George Fetherling discusses the roles that both Eastern and Western medicine have to play in healthy living. Read his article on the Shared Vision website.
