Book Description
Grief comes in many forms, not just the death. It comes from being separated from loved ones, loosing a job, a home, a relationship, an education, a childhood. We know that the aftermath of this pandemic is going to be massive as people struggle with mental health and disease that hasn't been detected or worse, caused by the stress of their situation turning into dis-ease. I was surprised listening to The Chief Medical Officer and Head Nurse during lockdown that there was little or no mention of the immune system, like they don't know that we have one....but we do and now is the time to build it. We don't know if this virus will ever go away or keep mutating or when the next one will come, so maybe we have to learn how to live with them? If we live in sanitise isolation for too long, will our immune systems just pack up? Or will doctors of the future will check our vitamins and minerals and guide us to better health, so the NHS can become a health management system, not a disease management system? I am not an expert on anything but I have listened to thousands of hours of those who are, so I have put together the best bits of my journey to share with you but everybody's is different. Take the bits that suit you, your lifestyle.Map your own path. There is no right or wrong. Listen to your body, listen to your gut, listen to your heart....it will tell you. This journal is no substitute for medical advice, just another perspective to help healing if you wish to include anything. Please always consult your doctor for anything that worries you. I had a poster on my bedroom wall in my teenage years. A full moon shining over the sea. It simply said The important thing is this Not what you are But what you can become My desperation has been my inspiration and I hope that you might find something here to inspire and help you.

Wild Health
Author: Cindy Engel
Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
ISBN: 9780618340682
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
As Dr. Engel emphasizes in this "enticing, well-referenced, [and] entertaining book" (Science), we can learn a lot about human health by studying animal behavior in the wild. Indeed, some of the natural, holistic, and alternative human medicine being practiced today arose through the observation of wild animals. In this groundbreaking work, Dr. Engel points out fascinating parallels between animal and human medicine. She offers intriguing examples of how animals prevent and cure sickness and poisonings, heal open wounds, balance their diets, and regulate fertility. For instance, *chimpanzees carefully eat bitter-tasting plant "medicines" that counter intestinal parasites *elephants roam miles to find the clay they ingest to counter dietary toxins *broken-legged chicks have been known to eat analgesic foods that alleviate pain. By observing wild health we may discover (or rediscover) ways to benefit our own health. As Craig Stotlz of the Washington Post noted, this "highly readable assessment . . . triggers more outside-the-double-helix thoughts about human health than anything I've read recently."

Natural Causes
Author: Barbara Ehrenreich
Publisher: Twelve
ISBN: 1455535885
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
From the celebrated author of Nickel and Dimed, Barbara Ehrenreich explores how we are killing ourselves to live longer, not better. A razor-sharp polemic which offers an entirely new understanding of our bodies, ourselves, and our place in the universe, Natural Causes describes how we over-prepare and worry way too much about what is inevitable. One by one, Ehrenreich topples the shibboleths that guide our attempts to live a long, healthy life -- from the importance of preventive medical screenings to the concepts of wellness and mindfulness, from dietary fads to fitness culture. But Natural Causes goes deeper -- into the fundamental unreliability of our bodies and even our "mind-bodies," to use the fashionable term. Starting with the mysterious and seldom-acknowledged tendency of our own immune cells to promote deadly cancers, Ehrenreich looks into the cellular basis of aging, and shows how little control we actually have over it. We tend to believe we have agency over our bodies, our minds, and even over the manner of our deaths. But the latest science shows that the microscopic subunits of our bodies make their own "decisions," and not always in our favor. We may buy expensive anti-aging products or cosmetic surgery, get preventive screenings and eat more kale, or throw ourselves into meditation and spirituality. But all these things offer only the illusion of control. How to live well, even joyously, while accepting our mortality -- that is the vitally important philosophical challenge of this book. Drawing on varied sources, from personal experience and sociological trends to pop culture and current scientific literature, Natural Causes examines the ways in which we obsess over death, our bodies, and our health. Both funny and caustic, Ehrenreich then tackles the seemingly unsolvable problem of how we might better prepare ourselves for the end -- while still reveling in the lives that remain to us.

Why Wellness Sells
Author: Colleen Derkatch
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 1421445298
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
How and why the idea of wellness holds such rhetorical—and harmful—power. In Why Wellness Sells, Colleen Derkatch examines why the concept of wellness holds such rhetorical power in contemporary culture. Public interest in wellness is driven by two opposing philosophies of health that cycle into and amplify each other: restoration, where people use natural health products to restore themselves to prior states of wellness; and enhancement, where people strive for maximum wellness by optimizing their body's systems and functions. Why Wellness Sells tracks the tension between these two ideas of wellness across a variety of sources, including interviews, popular and social media, advertising, and online activism. Derkatch examines how wellness manifests across multiple domains, where being "well" means different things, ranging from a state of pre-illness to an empowered act of good consumer-citizenship, from physical or moral purification to sustenance and care, and from harm reduction to optimization. Along the way, Derkatch demonstrates that the idea of wellness may promise access to the good life, but it serves primarily as a strategy for coping with a devastating and overwhelming present. Drawing on scholarship in the rhetoric of health and medicine, the health and medical humanities, and related fields, Derkatch offers a nuanced account of how language, belief, behavior, experience, and persuasion collide to produce and promote wellness, one of the most compelling—and harmful—concepts that govern contemporary Western life. She explains that wellness has become so pervasive in the United States and Canada because it is an ever-moving, and thus unachievable, goal. The concept of wellness entrenches an individualist model of health as a personal responsibility, when collectivist approaches would more readily serve the health and well-being of whole populations.
