Herpes Books

In a constant search to help decrease the number of herpes out breaks I had every year, I purchased this book. It had a lot useful information, however, some of it was a little too much for me. Many of the products discussed had to be ordered directly from the author. I was able to find some of them in my local health food store. I still use the concepts and ideas presented in the book. Through a combination of these ideas and many lifestyle changes, I am happy to say that I have been outbreak free for several months!

This is a book most especially for those who want an alternative to western medicine and an approach that will be truly holistic, addressing emotional and social issues surrounding HSV 1 & 2, as well as medical ones. It is warm and caring and full of wisdom. I’m grateful to Christopher Scipio for helping me understand this virus and learning how to deal with it without shame and as part of being a human being despite misplaced social stigma.

If you are looking for an alternative to staying on damaging Herpes drugs for the rest of your life, along with a means to enhancing your attacked immune system and coming to true terms with a lifelong STD, this book is a must read. As stated in this book, you have 3 options if you have Herpes: stay on drugs (which does not help your immune system or build your resistance to outbreaks, and has other costly side effects over time), do nothing (which is unethical), or treat your Herpes holistically, which is just as effective if not more so than drugs in controlling outbreaks, and also provides lasting health benefits. Please, read this book before staying on drugs or purchasing all the so-called natural remedies littering the Internet (and sponsored by your favorite pharmaceutical company). Read it for education alone. Read it even if you don’t have Herpes but are sexually active.

This is a great book for anyone who is suffering from herpes. It gives you a natural approach to gaining control of your outbreaks while helping you deal with the emotional side of herpes. This book truely made a difference in my life and I highly recommend it to anyone who is suffering emotionally from herpes and anyone who wants to try a natural approach to dealing with herpes.

Christopher’s book was a life saver. It is informative, it responded to my doubts and fears, it answered my questions. It showed me a way to live with herpes holistically. It taught me to think positively about something that was making me very negative.

I have given the book to several family members and friends who have herpes and they have loved it too. I highly recommend this book.

It was nice to read about someone else’s story, but truthfully, the book is repetitive and doesn’t provide that much new information. The same few things are repeated over and over again. Although I understand that repetition can provide emphasis, this was simply redundant. I got it the first three times… Beside that, the book seems more like a pitch to purchase his remedies than anything else since each source in the book refers back to something he is selling. I was hoping for a “deeper” experience from this book but didn’t get it.

Not having read another book on herpes, I cannot compare this book to any other book. However, I can compare my health before and after reading “Making Peace With Herpes” and working with Christopher, and I will never need drug therapy, and I have not had any more outbreaks.

Everything I do now is for the better of my health, herpes, body, and soul, because I am living and eating and loving consciously. Christopher advocates through his book, and through his life, living and treating herpes holistically. As he says “There is an ocean of love and mercy around us at all times, ready, willing and able to assist in our healing. To receive your healing you can tune into this life-force anytime”.

You will learn how to accept that you have herpes (cold sores are herpes too) and change your life to make the virus inactive.

Christopher inspires by relating personal stories and writings such as “Nine Years in The Wilderness”, “Nine Stages of Dealing With a Herpes Diagnosis” (EXCELLENT), “He or She Just Ain’t That Into You” (a personal favorite, you will see why).

Christopher further educates by including his herpes diet (it works and also made my winter allergies much less severe), recommended supplements, lifestyle and state of consciousness tips, a guided daily visualization for herpes, how to handle an outbreak, and much information on his natural remedies and how and why he makes them.

I recommend this book if you are ready to live the life you envision!

I bought this book because I was looking for other answers than those provided by medical sites. It definitely provides information on statistics and forms of transmission as well as ways of protecting others. But more importantly it offers a spiritual/emotional approach to dealing with the often devastating news as well as the lifetime “companion”. The author’s personal experience is something we can all relate to and it is comforting to know that one is not alone. Actually knowing that we are a majority is in a way empowering.

There are no quick fixes for this and our emotional and psychological health is extremely important when dealing with this virus. Christopher Scipio makes a good point to touch on this throughout the book.

I am one of those people who does not buy into the big drug companies and quick fixes, so am drawn to holistic medicine.
