Book description
My Life and Work with Alfred Vogel is the third instalment of
Jan de Vries's memoirs covering his life and career as a renowned
alternative health practitioner. This volume focuses on his long and
fruitful working relationship with Alfred Vogel, which prospered right
up until Vogel's death in 1996. Jan de Vries was the only person to
whom Vogel taught his unique healing methods and philosophies, and as
a result of their close professional links they also became great
friends, sharing a mutual respect and trust over a period of 40 years.
In this revealing and informative memoir, de Vries details the
methods employed by Vogel and the profound influence that the Swiss
naturopath had on him and his career. De Vries reflects upon the
controversial, often almost impossible, situations that he shared with
Vogel as they travelled throughout the world to promote their methods
and practices.
De Vries also provides invaluable practical advice for daily living
and stresses how, by employing old folklore methods and taking on
board aspects of dietary management, long-term health and happiness
can be achieved by all.
Jan de Vries has written extensively on alternative health issues and
is the author of the bestselling alternative medicine series By
Appointment Only, Well Woman, Nature's Gift and Jan de Vries Healthcare.
He has also published the first two volumes of his memoirs,
A Step at
a Time
and
Fifty Years Fighting
