With her new manual Western herbs for Eastern Meridians and Five Element Theory, Evenly Mulders has given the busy Kinesiologist (and other health practitioners) an effective, user friendly, new tool for their clinics. In particular, Professional Kinesiology Practitioners (PKP) graduates will enjoy the way in which she has organized her knowledge of herbs within the PKP protocol and Chinese Five Element Theory. However, within that context, Evelyn is teaching western (local) herbs, which support our western society and nourish the people of western lands and culture.
I enjoyed the inclusion of a “herbal attitude” portion which gives clients the metaphysical message to support them in their spiritual journey. To make it easy for practitioners, Evenly has outlined the herbs in a chart with their Mental/ Emotional/ Physical relevance. This means that while the client is receiving physical benefit from the use of the herb, a herbal ‘message’ also offers their spirit an additional perspective for energy balancing. Non-PKP practitioners are not forgotten, the manual is non-commercial product-related and the biochemical uses are quickly referenced. The manual outlines the part of the herb that holds the balancing quality and so alleviates any confusion over which part of the herb to use. Clients themselves will receive immense benefit from owning this book. With increasing government restrictions on the availability of supplement, the rising prices and side-effect risk of pharmaceuticals, knowledge about the safe use of local herbs to support family and close friends becomes empowering.
