Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
When you hurt, you want answers. What caused the pain, and what can you do to recover? For people struggling with persistent or recurrent pain, however, those answers are difficult or impossible to obtain. Even so, it is possible to live a life with less pain-to heal and be well. In Healing Power of You, Dr. Keith Poorbaugh shares insights from his personal and clinical experience to help explain the cause of musculoskeletal pain. He then offers a rationale based upon recent scientific evidence demonstrating the danger of choosing a medical fix rather than the path toward wellness and healing. Every well human moves to heal, and you can rediscover the true nature of tissue healing to foster natural pain relief from musculoskeletal conditions. Take the opportunity to explore current knowledge on the mystery of healing from pain. Science is always changing, but one thing remains true and constant: the musculoskeletal system is designed to heal. Designed for those suffering from chronic pain, this guide presents a solution-based approach to pain relief that encourages healing and lifestyle changes for improved wellness.

Together
Author: Vivek H. Murthy, M.D.
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 006291331X
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
The New York Times Bestseller from Surgeon General, Vivek H. Murthy, MD. “We have a massive, deadly epidemic hidden in plain sight: loneliness. It is as harmful to health as smoking and far more common. And as his gripping stories of the science and suffering make clear, we can do something about it. Together is fascinating, moving, and essential reading.”—Atul Gawande, author of Being Mortal “Together made me rethink much of what I believe about physical health, public policy, and the human condition. By revealing America’s epidemic of loneliness—and then offering an array of remedies for the condition—Murthy has done a great service, and made Together the most important book you’ll read this year.”—Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestselling author of When and Drive The book we need NOW to avoid a social recession, Murthy’s prescient message is about the importance of human connection, the hidden impact of loneliness on our health, and the social power of community. Humans are social creatures: In this simple and obvious fact lies both the problem and the solution to the current crisis of loneliness. In his groundbreaking book, the 19th surgeon general of the United States Dr. Vivek Murthy makes a case for loneliness as a public health concern: a root cause and contributor to many of the epidemics sweeping the world today from alcohol and drug addiction to violence to depression and anxiety. Loneliness, he argues, is affecting not only our health, but also how our children experience school, how we perform in the workplace, and the sense of division and polarization in our society. But, at the center of our loneliness is our innate desire to connect. We have evolved to participate in community, to forge lasting bonds with others, to help one another, and to share life experiences. We are, simply, better together. The lessons in Together have immediate relevance and application. These four key strategies will help us not only to weather this crisis, but also to heal our social world far into the future. Spend time each day with those you love. Devote at least 15 minutes each day to connecting with those you most care about. Focus on each other. Forget about multitasking and give the other person the gift of your full attention, making eye contact, if possible, and genuinely listening. Embrace solitude. The first step toward building stronger connections with others is to build a stronger connection with oneself. Meditation, prayer, art, music, and time spent outdoors can all be sources of solitary comfort and joy. Help and be helped. Service is a form of human connection that reminds us of our value and purpose in life. Checking on a neighbor, seeking advice, even just offering a smile to a stranger six feet away, all can make us stronger. During Murthy’s research for Together, he found that there were few issues that elicited as much enthusiastic interest from both very conservative and very liberal members of Congress, from young and old people, or from urban and rural residents alike. Loneliness was something so many people have known themselves or have seen in the people around them. In the book, Murthy also shares his own deeply personal experiences with the subject—from struggling with loneliness in school, to the devastating loss of his uncle who succumbed to his own loneliness, as well as the important example of community and connection that his parents modeled. Simply, it’s a universal condition that affects all of us directly or through the people we love—now more than ever.

Recognize and Heal Yourself through the Power of the Spirit
Author: Gabriele
Publisher: Gabriele Publishing House
ISBN: 3964460303
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
The human being is an energy field of the Spirit. A weakening of this energy field through negative thinking and living leads to illness. The right way of living and positive thinking, on the other hand, allows us to be healthy and remain spiritually active. Find access to your soul, and get to know the consciousness centers, the switching point of the spiritual-divine life force, the link between soul and body. Experience self-healing via the power of the Spirit with various illnesses as well as the effects of different types of fragrances, colors and sounds. Who among us has no need for physical, mental or spiritual healing? This book provides an unimaginable help for the reader. Whether it’s spiritual healing for depression, fatigue or apathy, or relief for tension and physical pain… Or, perhaps, we simply need a bit of “spiritual therapy,” guidance for a stronger physical and mental health, in God. The answer to problems of physical and mental health lies in God, within us, each person. A person’s world of thoughts revolves mainly around his own concerns. Thus, he thinks about what he could treat himself with externally: what food, what herb or medicine might keep his body flexible, fresh and healthy. This way of thinking already contributes to the reduction of the spiritual ether powers that could give him all he needs for his physical and mental health and healing. God, the eternally existing ether power in soul and person, could be his provider and healer, a true spiritual therapy for soul and body. Through negative, that is, impure, thoughts and human conceptions, the will to do good in us slackens. This reduces the divine will power and, as a result, the soul does not find its way to God. But with a life tuned evermore to God in us, we can activate the self-healing forces for a profound healing: mental, physical and spiritual.

Book Description
Most of us are no strangers to health problems, illness, or pain, but what if there's a solution to restore our well-being that doesn't involve drugs, surgery, or other medical procedures? Well, there is, and you'll find it within your own body. That's right! Your body has a built-in capacity to heal itself-a remarkable system of self-repair that works day in and day out-and improving its ability to heal is within your control. Yet most people don't fully grasp the body's incredible power to heal itself, largely because traditional medicine has led us to believe that health comes from the outside in and not from the inside out. Did you know, for example, that approximately 50 percent of all illnesses, when left alone, will eventually heal themselves? If you choose to take care of your body every day, it will reward you a thousand times over-improving your odds against everything from heart disease, cancer, and diabetes; to arthritis, allergies, colds, late-winter flu, and more. Remember, you have the power to be and stay healthy because healing truly comes from within. The Power of Self-Healing will help you accomplish all this and more!

The Healing Power of Combining Hands on Healing with Angelic Energy and Aromatherapy

Book Description
“they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. ” — Mark 16:18, KJV ....“anointed many sick people with oil and healed them”, — Mark 6:13, KJV Hopefully this book will be a humble reminder to all of those involved in healing work, which combines two healing techniques that are as powerful today as they were in the Biblical times. Anointing with essential oil was commonly practiced throughout the Scriptures for many different purposes. The New Testament mentions it specifically in connection with praying for the sick. Today’s Aromatherapy is practiced in many different settings and variations but a common denominator among all aroma therapists is the sense of reverence towards the miracle of nature in the form of essential oils. They know that fragrance can affect the mood, calm, relax and release emotions. Today’s energy work also comes in a variety of methods, but what all of them have in common is the unconditional love and the spiritual meaning of healing.
