Susan L. Roberts, MDiv, OTRL, is an occupational therapist, nutritionist, and sustainable health coach in New York City. She lives in Queens, New York.
"When we are feeling lost, we need a compass to know which
direction will take us home. Susan Roberts has given us just that
in Sustainable Health. As a well-seasoned occupational
therapist, she has merged her considerable experience in treating
the physical form with her long-time dedication to the practice of
qigong in order to help us 'navigate a path to a more vibrant and
happier life.' In this book, you will discover the simple and
practical wisdom that emerges from understanding the deep
relationships between the five forces of nature. This ecological
wisdom has been passed down through the ages in every culture
concerned with nurturing growth and is the foundation of Chinese
medicine. Rather than living from one emergency to the next, Susan
provides practical exercises that offer us an opportunity to orient
ourselves within a bigger field of ecology that unifies body, mind,
and spirit, enabling us to truly personalize our journey towards
sustainable health."

Understanding the Five Types of ADHD Can Help You Improve Your
Child's Self-Esteem and Attention*
"Roberts has ingeniously interwoven ideas, beliefs, and practices
from physics, traditional Chinese medicine, neurophysiology,
immunology, epigenetic, and evolutionary biology to create a
Healing Compass: a tool to help people develop and sustain a
holistic healthy life. Fascinating, fun, therapeutic activities
help readers adjust and balance their daily habits, beliefs, bodily
processes, movement, emotions, and sensory and mental
processing. Sustainable Health is applicable to all human
beings!"
*Pat Precin, PhD, PsyaD, OTR/L, LP, NCPsyA, FAOTA, Assistant

"Featuring an impressively informative and accessibly organized
text, Sustainable Health is an especially recommended addition
