The winter holiday season is the most stressful time of the year, and the time men are most likely to have trouble with colds/flus, anxiety/depression/addictions, digestive problems, & chronic pain.  Before you get too busy, take this powerful, practical 4-week series on herbalism & nutritional strategies that will help you prevent stress problems and deal with symptoms early on before they get you down. 

 

INSTRUCTOR:  Max Floyd has spent 7 years passionately studying health, nutrition and herbalism from Ayurvedic, Traditional Chinese, Traditional Western/European, Traditional American, & Western scientific perspectives. As a teenager he suffered with many health challenges and (unable to find any help using mainstream approaches) he finally learned how to overcome them using natural methods. He now shares his perspective as someone who has restored his health and vitality using practical herbalism and nutrition.
