How Not to Be My Patient: A Physician's Secrets for Staying Healthy and Surviving Any Diagnosis

by Sandra Wendel


COVID changed everything. 
Mayo Clinic's Dr. Edward Creagan addresses critical changes in the healthcare delivery system and survivorship in this REVISED third edition of his award-winning book for empowered patients.

“This book is for everyone who decides to take charge of their own health and their own destiny.” Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN

The facts are clear. If you want to be healthy for life—

  • Learn to talk so your doctor will listen.
  • Get insights on how to navigate patient portals and telemedicine visits.
  • Understand your diagnosis—and realize that you can survive bad news.
  • Follow Dr. Ed’s 8 simple commandments for living well—and you’ll live long enough to cash in your 401(k).
  • Separate hype from hope, especially with perplexing medical headlines and confusing internet information.
  • Get insight into what your doctor wasn’t taught in medical school.
  • Combine the best of traditional and complementary treatments.

Dr. Edward Creagan treated very sick patients for more than 40 winters at the renowned Mayo Clinic. This book is not just about lifestyle choices, although these are important aspects of Dr. Creagan’s healthy living plan. It is about using your precious minutes in the exam room (the average doctor visit is about 16 minutes), forging the right kind of relationship with your care providers (because that world is changing quickly), and understanding and using the healthcare system—instead of having the system use (and often abuse) you.

Edward T. Creagan, MD, FAAHPM, is Professor Emeritus of Medical Oncology at the Mayo Clinic Medical School, Emeritus Professor of Humanism in Medicine, and Emeritus Consultant in Palliative Medicine. He is board certified in internal medicine, medical oncology, and hospice medicine and palliative care.

“Dr. Ed” is the author of over 400 scientific papers and has made more than 1,000 presentations throughout the world on health, hope, cancer survivorship, caregiving, burnout, and the healing power of pets.

Farewell: Vital End-of-Life Questions with Candid Answers from a Leading Palliative and Hospice Physician, also available on Amazon.

Somatic Trauma Healing

by Ascending Vibrations


Always wanted to know how to help your body, mind, & spirit with simple somatic techniques but don’t know where to start? Keep reading.

Have you suffered trauma in the past? Have you been wanting to relieve unusual symptoms but can’t seem to get to the bottom of it? Stored trauma can often lead to physical pain and the psychological anguish that comes along with it. Trauma can be defined as anything that results in us being stuck in a physical, emotional, or behavioral pattern.

 

Want to say goodbye to all of the overwhelming & complex info out there & discover what easily works for you? You see, using somatic healing to your benefit doesn't have to be difficult, even if you feel like you've already tried everything. You don’t need to spend thousands on therapy sessions either.

In fact, it's easier than you think.

 

Cross your hands over your chest, so you are making a butterfly shape with your fingers pointing up. Then, link your two thumbs together. Use your hands to tap alternately on your chest's left and right sides. This forms a connection between the left and right sides of your brain.

 

Take note of your surroundings and anything going on. This should help calm you, give you a feeling of peace, & help you process whatever current issue causing you stress might be.

 

A study in 2020 focused on how social pain, i.e., isolating yourself or negative experiences of interaction, can result in physical pain. Something like trauma, often seen as a mental aspect, can manifest itself in physical reactions such as headaches, muscle tension, fatigue, and stomach trouble.

 

Here’s just a tiny fraction of what you’ll discover:

  • What must be cleared within you to avert chronic illness
  • The real reason you may be suffering from auto-immune disorders
  • Why your posture, facial expressions, & body language may be in rapid decline
  • The cause of digestion issues, hormonal problems, or sexual dysfunction you won’t believe
  • An arsenal of powerful somatic hacks to unleash easily at home
  • The attention diversion trick to calm the crashing waves of past trauma
  • The “horn” trick to easily bring your mind & body into harmony
  • The amazingly easy way to positively impact your blood pressure, heart rate & arteries
  • The mood & sleep enhancer you can do from literally anywhere
  • The forgotten element that could be causing your fear of relationships & sense of shame
  • The secret to evaporate your fight, flight, freeze, or fawn responses
  • The body-to-brain method for guru-level calmness
  • How an item from your freezer can snap you out of fight or flight
  • Which attachment trauma style you could be exhibiting that is wreaking havoc in your relationships
  • The real reason parts of your body have become shuddery & jerky
  • The natural, nervous system recalibration way out of pain
  • How moving your eyes can reprogram old trauma into positivity
  • The amazingly effective energy-shaking techniques to open chakras & release baggage
  • The benefits to how an artistic flare could connect to your subconscious
  • Recognizing overlooked personality types & how to heal from encounters with them
  • Why talk therapy may not be getting to the true crux of your trauma
  • The tell-tale signs that your somatic practice is paying off
  • A done-for-you Somatic Daily Ritual for Empowered Healing
  • A *Bonus* energy healing guided meditation download

& much more.

Imagine how you'll feel once you're able to easily use the magic of somatic therapy to reach your full potential. How will your body, mind, & soul feel once you release what no longer serves you & step into your true self?

the name in bodybuilding. Here is his classic bestselling autobiography, which explains how the “Austrian Oak” came to the sport of bodybuilding and aspired to be the star he has become.

Those guys were huge and brutal….The weight lifters shone with sweat; they were powerful looking, Herculean. And there it was before me—my life, the answer I'd been seeking. It clicked. It was something I suddenly just seemed to reach out and find, as if I'd been crossing a suspended bridge and finally stepped off onto solid ground.

Arnold shares his fitness and training secrets—demonstrating with a comprehensive step-by-step program and dietary hints how to use bodybuilding for better health. His program includes a special four-day regimen of specific exercises to develop individual muscle groups—each exercise illustrated with photos of Arnold in action.

Running Back in Time: Discovering the Formula to Beat the Aging Process and Get Younger

by Dr. Zeev Gilkis


Dream big. Set ambitious goals. Attain unusual achievements.

At the age of 68, while still recovering from his second knee injury, Dr. Zeev Gilkis decided to give himself an unusual present for his 70th birthday.

He dreamed of running a full marathon, and completing the seventh decade of his life seemed to him the ideal timing to do so.

Perhaps this ambitious goal wouldn’t have been so unusual, had he been a very physically active person in his younger years. But Zeev is a cancer survivor who began his "career" in sports relatively late, in his mid-60s.

As two years is a long time, he set a milestone for his 69th birthday: to go mid-way - running a half marathon.

Along with his plans and dreams, he kept a diary where he recorded the ups and downs, practical tips, and original thoughts that crossed his mind in this long, challenging journey.

Join Zeev in this adventure and discover that age doesn't matter. You too can achieve anything you truly dream of.

In his first two books: Unlock Bliss, A Memoir of Getting Happier and The Secret of Life, A Memoir of Getting Younger, Dr. Zeev Gilkis shares with listeners the story of his struggle with cancer, some important and original thoughts, and insights into life and happiness, such as that “Age doesn’t matter!” among many others.

In a very simple writing style, he describes some of the key processes in the brain, the role of the immune system and how to care for it, the story of how he got into sports in his 60s, and much more good stuff.

From Refrigerator Chaos to Keto: Lost Recipes, Abandoned Diets, and Forgotten Foods

by Laurie De Camillis

 

  • ​Do you hate opening your fridge?
  • Do you struggle with your weight?
  • Do you have a love/hate relationship with food?


Through the Painter’s Eye proudly presents Laurie De Camillis’ Keto Diet journey uncovering the secrets she learned to clean her fridge, lose weight, and love food again! Through her drawings, reflections, anecdotes, and research, you will learn the keys to her success!

Do you have a situation in your fridge like Laurie did?


My fridge, stuffed with food, abandoned diets and unfulfilled aspirations of gourmet meals, mirrored my love/hate relationship with food. Inside were promises of delicious recipes unmade, food long past their due dates, and remnants of one yo-yo diet after another, my food history. The oozing, rotting food and wasted money sickened me. Because I couldn’t bear to open the door, I survived on take-out fast food. Before I knew it, 50 pounds became my best friend, which I could not say goodbye to for the love of God. Knowing it was healthier to eat at home made no difference; I couldn’t face my fridge.

This started Laurie on a journey to lose weight and regain her health. In Laurie’s research, she discovered many interesting things about how and why we become addicted to food, why we get fatter on certain kinds of diets and healthier ways of eating to maintain good health and weight

You are Intentionally Manipulated, Without Your Consent, Into Addiction!
You are 
NOT at Fault!

Come join Laurie on her Keto journey as she explains how to clean your refrigerator, no matter how revolting it is, how food addictions develop, how the Keto Diet works, how to avoid food shopping temptations, and how to prepare and store Keto food.

Includes bonus meal planning and recipes to start your Keto journey.

X Back: Five Step Process to Get Him Back (Relationship and Dating Advice for Women Book 28)

by Gregg Michaelsen


X Back: The Five Step Process to Get Him Back

Right now, you’re entire world is falling down around you. Your ex has broken up and nothing feels right. You feel desperate to get him back, but so far, everything you’ve tried hasn’t worked.
You’ve texted him tear-filled messages begging him to come back. You’ve promised to do better if he’ll only come back.

But he’s ignoring you. If he texts back, it’s short and non-committal, which just frustrates you even more.
You’ve come to the right place. I have the book for you written by The Top Dating Coach!

X Back: The Five Step Process to Get Him Back

Inside is everything you need to get your ex back. The 5 steps will take a few weeks for you to do, and that’s a good thing and I’ll tell you why.

Right now, your ex has negative feelings towards you. He's not even missing you. He’s off dealing with his own emotions.
Every text he receives from you reminds him of those negative feelings and keeps them alive. He can't miss you because you’re still there for him.

Read this book and follow the five steps! By the time you complete step three, he will be in a better place to receive your texts.

In Step One

  • You will learn to rein in your emotions.
  • You’ll learn how to implement the No Contact Rule, my way!
  • You’ll learn what things you’re doing to ruin your chances of getting him back and how to stop all the negative behaviors that you might be exhibiting.
  • You’ll gain some tips on managing your anxiety and setting boundaries.

In Step Two

  • You will assess the relationship and breakup, take an honest look at what really happened, remove him from his pedestal and understand what he’s thinking right now.
  • You’ll discover that he lied to you about why you broke up and what those lies really mean.
  • You’ll learn the difference between missing him and missing someone.
  • You will also identify your role in the breakup and uncover how you can fix that.

In Step Three

  • You will work on rebuilding your confidence. It doesn’t matter what the reason for the breakup was; the result is a drop in your confidence. For your ex to want to be with you again, you need to rebuild that confidence.
  • You’ll learn what it means to be an independent woman and how to become one.
  • Why you need to make positive changes in your life and how to put them into practice, the importance of self-care and how to implement a self-care routine, and how to create a vision for your life and write your own story.
  • You’ll also learn how to stop living in the past and how to end the days of being a victim.

In Step Four, You’ll Have Fun!

  • You’ll do what we call toying with his psyche.
  • You’ll start reminding him in small intermittent ways about the good times of your relationship.
  • You’ll learn about what I call the Slip In/Slip Out method and how to casually hang out.
  • You’ll determine when it’s time to contact him and how all the things you’ll be learning to do are going to turn the breakup upside down.
  • He will question why he broke up and worry that he’s losing you!

In the Final Step

You’ll formulate your plan to meet your ex. You’ll assess whether you’re ready for this step and you’ll learn how to get him to ask for the meeting. You’ll also learn about how he is likely to act during this meeting and why. You will go into this meeting as a casual observer: kind, peaceful and calm, and he won’t know what to do!

Before the five steps, however, are the dealbreakers. Pay close attention to these because these are all reasons why you should not consider a reconciliation with your ex.

Let's Get Him Back!

The Vessel of Truth (Chakra Themed Poetry Series Book 3)

by Maria Kitsios


The Vessel of Truth

May the poetry in this book serve as a reminder to vocalize your truth openly and compassionately.
Communicate clearly with the world around you.
Use kind words when dealing with others.
Always have the courage to speak up for yourself.
Embrace the sound of silence and stillness in every day existence.
Bring art forth and embody the Divine in moments of creative expression.
Be the vessel of Truth.

Embrace the silence within to answer the necessary questions:

  • Who am I?
  • What is the meaning of life?
  • Why am I here?

Let the answers which arise manifest as your legacy to this world.

The Vessel of Truth is the third of the seven poetry books series. It is composed of poems with topics related to the throat chakra. The throat chakra is the fifth chakra. It is associated with our expression, communication, voice, and truth.

The Chakra System

  • 2 Sacral
  • 3 Solar plexus
  • 4 Heart
  • 5 Throat
  • 6 Third eye
  • 7 Crown

Each chakra has a different color, element, sound, mantra, function, location, major organ, and association. The flow or blockage/imbalance of subtle energy in each chakra determines the health or disease of the individual body.

Throat Chakra information:

Sanskrit name: Vishuddha
Color: Light blue, turquoise

Isaac's Storm: A Man, a Time, and the Deadliest Hurricane in History

by Erik Larson


At the dawn of the twentieth century, a great confidence suffused America. Isaac Cline was one of the era's new men, a scientist who believed he knew all there was to know about the motion of clouds and the behavior of storms. The idea that a hurricane could damage the city of Galveston, Texas, where he was based, was to him preposterous, "an absurd delusion." It was 1900, a year when America felt bigger and stronger than ever before. Nothing in nature could hobble the gleaming city of Galveston, then a magical place that seemed destined to become the New York of the Gulf.

That August, a strange, prolonged heat wave gripped the nation and killed scores of people in New York and Chicago. Odd things seemed to happen everywhere: A plague of crickets engulfed Waco. The Bering Glacier began to shrink. Rain fell on Galveston with greater intensity than anyone could remember. Far away, in Africa, immense thunderstorms blossomed over the city of Dakar, and great currents of wind converged. A wave of atmospheric turbulence slipped from the coast of western Africa. Most such waves faded quickly. This one did not.

In Cuba, America's overconfidence was made all too obvious by the Weather Bureau's obsession with controlling hurricane forecasts, even though Cuba's indigenous weathermen had pioneered hurricane science. As the bureau's forecasters assured the nation that all was calm in the Caribbean, Cuba's own weathermen fretted about ominous signs in the sky. A curious stillness gripped Antigua. Only a few unlucky sea captains discovered that the storm had achieved an intensity no man alive had ever experienced.

In Galveston, reassured by Cline's belief that no hurricane could seriously damage the city, there was celebration. Children played in the rising water. Hundreds of people gathered at the beach to marvel at the fantastically tall waves and gorgeous pink sky, until the surf began ripping the city's beloved beachfront apart. Within the next few hours Galveston would endure a hurricane that to this day remains the nation's deadliest natural disaster. In Galveston alone at least 6,000 people, possibly as many as 10,000, would lose their lives, a number far greater than the combined death toll of the Johnstown Flood and 1906 San Francisco Earthquake.

And Isaac Cline would experience his own unbearable loss.

Meticulously researched and vividly written, 
Isaac's Storm is based on Cline's own letters, telegrams, and reports, the testimony of scores of survivors, and our latest understanding of the hows and whys of great storms. Ultimately, however, it is the story of what can happen when human arrogance meets nature's last great uncontrollable force. As such, Isaac's Storm carries a warning for our time.
