Dr. Nader Attalla presents a unique, "whole-person approach” to overall well-being and explores the spiritual, alongside the biological, psychological, and social factors that define and impact our daily lives and functioning. His book highlights the value and significant benefits of spiritual understanding as a road map to our innate capacity for happiness, success, health, love, inner peace, and creativity.

These same principles have been taught in numerous patient seminars and groups run by Dr. Attalla and his Soul Team, with the hope of reaching and helping others.
