Increasing numbers of general practitioners are discovering the benefits of working with Positive Health. It helps to talk with patients in a different way, with a focus on possibilities rather than on the impossibilities related to a particular health problem. Better for the patient and for the general practitioner. But how do we apply Positive Health? This handbook provides useful tools!
The book is full of tips, tells the story of how the concept was first developed and gives practical examples. It explains the underlying scientific basis of Positive Health - with a clear emphasis on what is meaningful to patients. And, above all, this book invites you to start working with Positive Health on various levels - in your consulting room, your practice and in the local community.
A German translation of the book will follow soon.
