Book Description
After nearly twenty-five years as a cop - riding high on the excitement, danger and stress of his work, feeling invincible - Craig Semple realised he could no longer outrun the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. The sudden and devastating collapse of his mental health led to his medical retirement from the police force, the end of his marriage and, eventually, his attempted suicide. But in adversity, it is also possible to find opportunity: Craig's diagnosis of a severe depressive disorder ultimately forced him to seek help, reassess and commit to making his mental health a lifetime priority. Having a game plan was key to Craig successfully reclaiming control, finding hope and stepping into a positive future. It is still difficult for many people to acknowledge that they are struggling to cope, particularly in jobs with a culture of toughness, where resilience is a given: first responders, the military, miners, construction workers. Craig was one of those people, and this down-to-earth, accessible and honest book distils everything he learned during his own mental health journey. Drawing on his own experiences - along with his skills in leadership, effective communication, emotional intelligence and conflict resolution - Craig provides a path for those finding it difficult to make that first step towards recovery from stress and trauma. Written from the perspective of a man who refused to stay down, Getting Back Up Again shines a light on strategies for navigating, surviving and growing through life's challenges.

Pages : 102
Book Description
Introduction from the Author In If Knocked Down, Get Back Up Again, I share how God took me from where I was in the past to where I am today, and how he can and will do the same for you. It is about the importance of developing and maintaining a personal relationship with the Lord and partnering with him throughout our lifelong journeys. He will lead us down the pathway of victory and help us overcome obstacles and beat the odds, so that no suffering will be in vain. • What challenges are you facing? • Do you feel like you’re missing God’s plan for your life? • How can we triumph through unavoidable suffering? Even though life isn’t always easy, there’s definitely a light at the end of the tunnel, and all things can work together for good. Jesus is the hope of glory, so there is always hope. He wants to take from the deepest valley to the highest mountaintop, because we are all destined for greatness, and God has a beautiful plan and purpose for each one of us. I also share how God has miraculously touched and blessed my life and has done for me what no doctor could do. God is a god of grace, mercy, and unconditional love, who does not care what Christian denomination you follow. He longs for a close personal relationship with each one of us. My heart’s greatest desire is that no suffering will be in vain and that everything the enemy means for harm will be used for good. Since we live in a fallen world, suffering is inevitable, but it does not have to defeat us. If we partner with the Lord, follow his lead, and move forward, all things can and will work together for good.

Many doctors tell their patients how to manage diabetes, but why should they simply manage it when they can be rid of it once and for all? In The Diabetes Cure, Alexa Fleckenstein presents a groundbreaking plan to do just that by targeting the real cause of diabetes: inflammation.

And ending the struggle with blood sugar is just the start, as this 5-step plan also teaches readers how to shed 5, 10, or even 50 pounds along the way. Complete with success stories featuring people who followed the plan and not only lost weight (up to 50 pounds) but were also no longer diagnosed as diabetic, The Diabetes Cure teaches readers what’s really causing their diabetes, shows them how to banish cravings once and for all, and provides the tools to help them take back control of their lives.
