This book was very informative of how animals are slaughtered. I became a vegetarian after reading this and I do feel alot better, emotionally and physically.
 Great book! September 14, 2009

I read this book from the library and liked it so much I bought it too. As soon as I started reading it, it made a difference in my life. The next day I joined the gym and have been going ever since. That was 4 months ago. It just motivated me to make some changes in my life and so easily too. I changed my diet too. It really is a great book that doesn't push you to do anything. I've been trying to make changes before but had a hard time. Somehow this just got me going. I bought the book because it has recipies and alternative foods for meat eaters. I can't recommend this book enough. Do what I did, get it from the library first and then buy it! You can't lose anything that way! :)
 A few good points buried under proselytizing July 4, 2009

Freston's support of a vegan diet would have been stronger with less criticism of the meat and dairy industries. Those arguments drag what was supposed to be a move based on nutrition and personal spirituality into the political and environmental arena. The points are valid, but out of place.
I also dislike that the menu suggestions and recipes repeatedly break the gluten-free rule and sometimes the sugar-free rule. If wheat flour (gluten) and peanut butter (sugar in most varieties) are part of the ingredients of a recipe, then it is not a valid diet option. And yet, a caffeine-free diet soda is, despite the damaging chemicals it contains.
For someone who is only interested in the cleanse diet, open the book to the suggested shopping list, make a few notes, and put it back on the shelf. Then try the Internet for vegan recipes that can be altered to eliminate sugar and gluten.
This book changed my life in a QUANTUM way!!! May 6, 2009

I have always been someone who tries to take care of myself in the mental, physical, and emotional way, but I have never really recognized the true connection of the 3 until Kathy Freston's book, Quantum Wellness. Kathy talks of so many tiny things that we take for granted, since we tend to live in our routines without taking account for things, and reminds us to live consciously---in SUCH a kind and easy way. She recommends "leaning" into things and not take on too much, just what you can now, to make yourself and the world a better place. I am in week 1 of her cleanse and I have truly never FELT BETTER in my entire life. It's just too easy and too great and I am SO thankful to Kathy and this book! A must read.

Quantum Wellness: A Practical and Spiritual Guide to Health and Happiness by Kathy Freston is a book that offers the reader eight Pillers of Wellness: Meditation, Exercise, Visualization, Spiritual practice which according to the author is compassion for others who are suffering. Some of the other Pillers are Self-work, Services and Fun activities. The book systematically addresses what it means to be healthy in mind, body and spirit and how the three are inextricably entwined.
