Summary

Medicinal Trees explores the fascinating world where biology and medicine intersect, revealing the therapeutic potential hidden within tree species. This book connects traditional ethnobotanical knowledge with modern pharmacology, highlighting how trees have served as sources of healing compounds throughout history. For instance, trees produce alkaloids, terpenoids, and flavonoids, each possessing distinct medicinal properties that could lead to innovative drug discovery. The book argues that trees represent a vast, largely untapped reservoir of medicinal compounds, underscoring the importance of forest conservation and sustainable harvesting.

 
The approach taken in Medicinal Trees is to first lay a foundation with plant chemistry and ethnobotany. It then progresses to detail specific examples with twenty well-documented medicinal tree species. Each profile includes botanical characteristics, geographical distribution, traditional uses, chemical composition, pharmacological properties, and clinical studies.

 
The book wraps up with a look at ethical and conservation issues surrounding medicinal trees, with insight on biodiversity protection.

    Life can hurt, but complete healing is possible. 
We have all been wounded. The pain can hit deep and settle into our bodies and souls. In reaction to our pain, beliefs and patterns emerge that hinder the way we see ourselves, relate to others, and move through life. Pain slows us down and drains our mental and emotional energy. 
Pain holds us back.  
Modern society provides many opportunities to numb, hide or escape symptoms of pain without addressing the root cause. However, until the source of our pain is identified and remedied, it will stay alive in us, manifesting as physical and emotional pain, toxic thoughts, anxiety, depression, and more. 
Everyone is unique in his or her response to life’s hurts, but as explained in Healing from the Heart:We can recognize our pain and respond in a way that puts us on the path to healing—and keeps us there.Healing happens in layers; each chapter guides us through these layers simply and concisely.Soul Connection questions provide valuable tools to connect us to our own heart at a deeper level while Spirit Connection exercises offer the opportunity to release the pain in prayer.Practical applications empower us to heal from the heart level (the soul), which not only relieves pain but provides the freedom needed to live the abundant life for which we are designed! 
The principles and processes found throughout Dana’s authentic telling of her own journey from pain to wellness have helped hundreds experience the life-changing power of inner healing. Furthermore, Healing from the Heart features a refreshing combination of story, instruction and journaling prompts that lead to the peace and revitalization for which we’ve been searching.  
Healing from the Heart is ideal for group study as well as individual discovery.

    Offers 40 concrete, practical tools and activities that will supercharge learners' ambition, organisation, persistence and determination. Where some education books focus on how individual teachers might sequence and deliver pieces of information in the clearest, most helpful and supportive way, engaging as many learners as possible, this one is different. This book looks at how you can help learners manage their workload and take control of their own knowledge and skills. It explores the characteristics, qualities and habits of successful students and shares forty replicable tools and tactics that all students can use immediately, both in and out of the classroom – activities that will help them to set goals, work more efficiently, organise their resources, revise more effectively and solve problems. This book is a perfect introduction to the VESPA approach, as well as being a practical addition to previous resources. The VESPA Handbook will help teachers develop the five key characteristics and behaviours that students need to be successful: vision, effort, systems, practice and attitude. When it comes to achieving academic success, these characteristics are crucial. Suitable for teachers, tutors and parents who want to boost academic outcomes in 14–18-year-olds and equip them with powerful tools and techniques in preparation for further education and employment.
