HIV Wellness: Living Well with HIV

Combine Western and other therapies in addition to Chinese medicine to help restore balance to the mind/body/spirit.

		"People with AIDS have given me great gifts that imbue my spirit with an all-encompassing feeling of respect and awe: Over and over I am struck by the resilience and determination that you possess. I am honored to be allowed to share in your process of coping with the consequences of this difficult disease. And I want to express my thanks to those of you who are living with HIV for allowing me to come into your life, gain wisdom from your struggle, and participate in your healing process." —Doc Misha
