Better Than Medicine -- A Merry Heart by Brownlow, Leroy. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780915720071.

Cheerful Hearts Are Better Than Medicine Centuries ago, Solomon said: A merry heart does good like medicine, but a broken spirit dries the bones. -PROVERBS 17:22 Since then, psychologists and therapists alike have ackhowledged what God has been telling us all along: the presence of joy in our hearts and a cheerful disposition have a powerful influence on our physical health. If we want to be healthy, we must first be happy. Medicines are of great benefit in treating physical ills; but when the underlying reason is emotional turmoil, drugs can only relieve symptoms, not cure the cause. In such a case, our basic need is inner peace. This book - the outgrowth of thirty years of spiritual and psychological counseling - will give you the tools and the confidence to begin the journey to a peaceful, cheerful heart.
