As a person who has just survived a serious scare related to a clinical drug test, I say hurrah for this writer who encourages us to acknowledge our human tendencies to anxiety, depression and stress and to seek the most effective methods available -- which just happen to be the ones over which we have the most control -- internal heart/breath centered mechanisms that can be easily learned. In addition, he espouses acupuncture, which can provide such amazing regulation for our unbalanced bodies! Read it and learn.
