Download or read book Shake It Off Naturally written by David Berceli and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains an easy to follow stress reduction exercise technique whose central aspect is the activation of a mild shaking response of the nervous system. It explores this most fundamental human experience of 'shaking' during highly excited experiences or events. This book explains how this natural shaking response is potentially capable of both relaxing physical tension patterns in the body as well as reducing psycho-emotional stress and tension. The technique explained in this book has demonstrated itself to be useful for people who are experiencing simple daily stress, long-term chronic tension, or even recovering from traumatic events. This shaking response, which has been traced back through traditional cultures to present day medical science, is the body's own natural neuro-physiological reaction to reduce stress. The combined writings of 24 authors representing 12 countries and 3 languages take the reader through the theoretical understanding of this shaking mechanism from neurological and physiological perspectives to its application with self, family, community and organizations as well as, active duty and veteran military personnel, first responders, refugee populations, and natural disaster survivors.The easy to follow pictures and explanations of these exercises guides the reader comfortably through this self-help, stress reduction process.

Download or read book Panic Free written by Tom Bunn and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “HURRY, BUY THE BOOK AND TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE.” — Marla Friedman, PsyD, PC, board chairman, Badge of Life What if you could stop panic by tapping into a different part of your brain? Through natural stimulation of your vagus nerve, you can end panic and anxiety, and this book can show you how. After years of working to help sufferers of panic and anxiety, licensed therapist (and pilot) Tom Bunn discovered a highly effective solution that utilizes a part of the brain not affected by the stress hormones that bombard a person experiencing panic. This “unconscious procedural memory” can be programmed to control panic by preventing the release of stress hormones and activating the parasympathetic nervous system. This process, outlined in Panic Free, sounds complicated but is not, requiring just ten days and no drugs or doctors. Bunn includes specific instructions for dealing with common panic triggers, such as airplane travel, bridges, MRIs, and tunnels. Because panic is profoundly life-limiting, the program Bunn offers can be a real life-changer.

Download or read book Notes on Suicide written by Simon Critchley and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is not a suicide note. Ten days after Edouard Leve handed in the manuscript of Suicide to his publisher in 2007, he hanged himself in his apartment. He was 42. Two years after Jean Amery's On Suicide was published in 1976, the author took an overdose of sleeping pills. He was 65. In 1960, some eighteen years after Albert Camus had raised and - so he thought - resolved the question of suicide in The Myth of Sisyphus, he was killed in a car accident. He is alleged to have said that dying in a car crash is the most absurd of all deaths. The absurdity of his death is compounded by the fact he had an unused train ticket in his pocket. He was 46. Let me say at the outset, at the risk of disappointing the reader, that I have no plans to kill myself ... just yet. Nor do I wish to join the chorus of those who proclaim loudly against suicide and claim that the act of taking one's own life is irresponsible and selfish, even shameful and cowardly, that people must stay alive whatever the cost. Suicide, in my view, is neither a legal nor moral offence, and should not be seen as such. My intention here is to simply try to understand the phenomenon, the act itself, what precedes it and what follows. I'd like to consider suicide from the point of view of those who have made the leap, or have come close to it-we might even find that the capacity to take that leap is what picks us out as humans. I want to look at suicide closely, carefully, and perhaps a little coldly, without immediately leaping to judgements or asserting moral principles like the right to life or death. We have to look suicide in the face, long and hard, and see what features, what profile, what inherited character traits and wrinkles emerge. Perhaps what we see when we look closely is our own distorted reflection staring back at us.

Download or read book Reset Your Child s Brain written by Victoria L. Dunckley, MD and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2015-06-23 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing numbers of parents grapple with children who are acting out without obvious reason. Revved up and irritable, many of these children are diagnosed with ADHD, bipolar illness, autism, or other disorders but don’t respond well to treatment. They are then medicated, often with poor results and unwanted side effects. Based on emerging scientific research and extensive clinical experience, integrative child psychiatrist Dr. Victoria Dunckley has pioneered a four-week program to treat the frequent underlying cause, Electronic Screen Syndrome (ESS). Dr. Dunckley has found that everyday use of interactive screen devices — such as computers, video games, smartphones, and tablets — can easily overstimulate a child’s nervous system, triggering a variety of stubborn symptoms. In contrast, she’s discovered that a strict, extended electronic fast single-handedly improves mood, focus, sleep, and behavior, regardless of the child’s diagnosis. It also reduces the need for medication and renders other treatments more effective. Offered now in this book, this simple intervention can produce a life-changing shift in brain function and help your child get back on track — all without cost or medication. While no one in today’s connected world can completely shun electronic stimuli, Dr. Dunckley provides hope for parents who feel that their child has been misdiagnosed or inappropriately medicated, by presenting an alternative explanation for their child’s difficulties and a concrete plan for treating them.

Download or read book Prostate Cancer Unmasked written by Ray M. Schilling, M.d. and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-20 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The FDA approved the PSA test in 1986 as a "monitor for treatment response and disease recurrence". Later in 1994 the FDA approved the PSA test as a screening tool for prostate cancer. But the question remained: what was the best treatment tool? I am reviewing 9 different treatment approaches in this book. They are all currently in use by different physicians. But they do not necessarily serve the patient best. Brachytherapy does not quite do it. It improves the cancer for a period of time, and after a few years it returns with a vengeance. The radical prostatectomy and the robotic prostatectomy have helped a significant amount of patients. But long-term studies show that there can be a recurrence rate of as much as 25 to 30%. In addition there are significant side effects like a killed sex life and involuntary dribbling of urine, if the bladder outlet was injured during the surgery. Quite often urologists recommend "active surveillance". This approach to prostate cancer means that a 71 to 75 year old prostate cancer sufferer is kept in suspense by the urologist. An initial rectal biopsy is done with a histology assessment where a Gleason score is analyzed. If this score is 6 or less, the cancer is presumed to be less aggressive and active surveillance is done. Another biopsy is done 1 year later and this could go on until the patient dies of a heart attack or a stroke. I think that prostate cancer should be treated early before metastases develop and the cancer gets out of control. There are other methods that actually can get rid of the prostate cancer, for instance cryoablation therapy following a mapping biopsy. In this latter method 60 biopsies are placed like a grid through the entire prostate gland to identify the exact location where prostate cancer has developed. This is done through the perineum (between the scrotum and the anal opening). Prostate cancer can often be multifocal: there may be two or three areas where prostate cancer is located. One month after the mapping procedure probes are introduced in the same way, through the perineum and the identified cancer lesions are treated with cryotherapy twice. I am explaining this in chapter 15 in more detail. According to Dr. Onik, an interventional radiologist in Ft. Lauderdale, active surveillance is something that should be abandoned. Instead the following treatment approach should be adopted. 1. A rising PSA or single PSA above 30 should trigger a referral for a mapping biopsy through the perineal approach under a general anesthetic. The treating physician can sterilize the area and perform biopsies in a sterile fashion, which prevents infection. This is a huge advantage above the standard transrectal approach, which can lead to infections like prostatitis and blood poisoning. 2. Based on the result of the mapping biopsy targeted ablation cryotherapy is performed one month later eradicating all the cancer foci determined through the mapping biopsy. 3. Follow-up PSA levels are obtained every three months for 2 years. If the PSA is less than 3.0, the patient is considered cured. If there is a rising PSA level point 1 and 2 above are repeated until a cure is achieved. Dr. Gary Onik published a 10-year follow-up study that had a 100% survival rate and a 94% cure rate in 70 men with prostate cancer. The reason for such good results is that attention is paid to detail, to the exact location of the cancer and that all cancer is completely eradicated. In my opinion this is the new blueprint of a common sense approach to prostate cancer. Read more details about this in chapter 15. Apart from the above mentioned treatment methods I reviewed external beam radiotherapy, laser ablation therapy and high-intensity focused ultrasound treatment. I noticed that the long-term cure rates over 10 years differ considerably from one treatment modality to the next. All of this is reviewed in detail in this book.

Download or read book Biochemistry for Sport and Exercise Metabolism written by Donald MacLaren and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-12-12 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do our muscles produce energy for exercise and what are the underlying biochemical principles involved? These are questions that students need to be able to answer when studying for a number of sport related degrees. This can prove to be a difficult task for those with a relatively limited scientific background. Biochemistry for Sport and Exercise Metabolism addresses this problem by placing the primary emphasis on sport, and describing the relevant biochemistry within this context. The book opens with some basic information on the subject, including an overview of energy metabolism, some key aspects of skeletal muscle structure and function, and some simple biochemical concepts. It continues by looking at the three macromolecules which provide energy and structure to skeletal muscle - carbohydrates, lipids, and protein. The last section moves beyond biochemistry to examine key aspects of metabolism - the regulation of energy production and storage. Beginning with a chapter on basic principles of regulation of metabolism it continues by exploring how metabolism is influenced during high-intensity, prolonged, and intermittent exercise by intensity, duration, and nutrition. Key Features: A clearly written, well presented introduction to the biochemistry of muscle metabolism. Focuses on sport to describe the relevant biochemistry within this context. In full colour throughout, it includes numerous illustrations, together with learning objectives and key points to reinforce learning. Biochemistry for Sport and Exercise Metabolism will prove invaluable to students across a range of sport-related courses, who need to get to grips with how exercise mode, intensity, duration, training status and nutritional status can all affect the regulation of energy producing pathways and, more important, apply this understanding to develop training and nutrition programmes to maximise athletic performance.
