Foreword by Izabella Wentz, New York Times bestselling author of Hashimoto’s Protocol A revolutionary, wellness-centered functional approach to managing hormonal imbalance by the first physician in the United States to be certified by both the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the American Board of Integrative Medicine. Every woman deserves to feel her best. Do you suffer from headaches, irregular periods, or fatigue? You’re not alone. Four out of five women will face life-altering hormonal imbalances, debilitating conditions that wreak havoc on their physical and mental health—yet most of these issues go unacknowledged, undiagnosed, and untreated.

The Hormone Balance Bible is the culmination of Dr. Tassone’s decades of research and clinical work with tens of thousands of patients. Here, Dr. Tassone guides women to understanding their hormonal profile and gives them the tools to feel better in as little as one week. After taking Dr. Tassone’s Integrative Hormone Mapping Quiz—an easy-to-understand diagnostic tool with an astonishing level of accuracy—readers will identify their Hormone Archetype (Nun, Wisewoman, Queen, etc.) and benefit from his six-step SHINES Protocol: Spiritual Practice, Hormones, Infoceuticals, Nutrition, Exercise, and Supplements, the world’s first fully integrative, truly holistic treatment plan for hormonal imbalance. A proven roadmap to wellness, The Hormone Balance Bible provides readers with sustainable practices that can easily be incorporated into daily life.

Many of us live at a pace that is impossible to keep. Unrelenting busyness might feel necessary, but it can lead to chronic stress and burnout that hinders our love for God and others. Instead of adding more to our long to-do list, counselors Eliza Huie and Esther Smith guide readers in how to think biblically about their whole life. They give Christians a framework for biblical self-care that will help them live for Christ by stewarding the spiritual, emotional, relational, and physical aspects of life. The Whole Life: 52 Weeks of Biblical Self-Care outlines a balanced life of stewardship, offering practical strategies for Christians to grow in honoring God and caring for others. The authors focus on six key areas: faith, health, purpose, community, work, and rest. Each chapter addresses a specific topic and guides readers in thinking biblically about their whole life. Breaking down the misconceptions that self-care is not biblical, The Whole Life reveals that caring for yourself doesn’t mean you are being selfish or lazy. Instead, it’s a way of stewarding every part of your life for God’s glory and the good of others. Contrary to what our culture might lead us to believe, exhaustion and burnout are not unavoidable pitfalls of a faithful Christian life. Instead, they are warning signs that we need to turn to God for daily help. This book will reorient readers to the core value of resting their heart, mind, and strength in Christ.
