Dr. Linda Hawes Clever knows this from her own experience. She was inspired to write The Fatigue Prescription because of her own hard-won wisdom. Dr. Clever’s life experience emboldened her to help others avoid fatigue and the hardships that accompany it. “Physician, heal thyself” and she did.

Readers who take Dr. Clever’s good prescription and excellent advice will find they are healthier, calmer, and happier, and have a new lease on life.
