Download or read book Doctored written by Polly A. Magena and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a true account about a woman surviving life-long abuse, eventually leading to the kidnap of her two small children by their father. They never came home. Her former partner launched a terrible campaign of revenge, isolating her with no family support and a damaged reputation. Alone and traumatized, Polly turned to her doctor for help but he exploited her vulnerability, sexually abusing her secretly over a two year period. Later she was almost blacklisted following the quick expulsion from two doctors' patient lists for surviving Dr X's misconduct. Hospital social workers supported custody to her ex, knowing of his domestic abuse, with dire consequences. Fighting back, Polly attended the medical court but they cleared him to return to work. After the cover-up, she lost her career and her home as well as her children as the toxic fall-out almost destroyed her life. Using her spirituality and love for her children and nature, she escaped the place of abuse to become an adventurer, writer and poet. Despite her ex partner's cruel tactics to destroy the relationship with her children, she survived, kept her faith, started singing and finally reclaimed the once lost role of mother. Today, Polly is a proud grandmother of several beautiful children: the buds in the rose garden over the wall.
Download or read book The Hungry Brain written by Stephan J. Guyenet, Ph.D. and published by Flatiron Books. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year From an obesity and neuroscience researcher with a knack for engaging, humorous storytelling, The Hungry Brain uses cutting-edge science to answer the questions: why do we overeat, and what can we do about it? No one wants to overeat. And certainly no one wants to overeat for years, become overweight, and end up with a high risk of diabetes or heart disease--yet two thirds of Americans do precisely that. Even though we know better, we often eat too much. Why does our behavior betray our own intentions to be lean and healthy? The problem, argues obesity and neuroscience researcher Stephan J. Guyenet, is not necessarily a lack of willpower or an incorrect understanding of what to eat. Rather, our appetites and food choices are led astray by ancient, instinctive brain circuits that play by the rules of a survival game that no longer exists. And these circuits don’t care about how you look in a bathing suit next summer. To make the case, The Hungry Brain takes readers on an eye-opening journey through cutting-edge neuroscience that has never before been available to a general audience. The Hungry Brain delivers profound insights into why the brain undermines our weight goals and transforms these insights into practical guidelines for eating well and staying slim. Along the way, it explores how the human brain works, revealing how this mysterious organ makes us who we are.

Download or read book Asleep to Dream in Seattle written by Hal J. Kelly and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demoralized by twenty-six loveless years in matrimony and bitter retrospect on drudgeries of the past, Craig Burton makes a sudden and dramatic decision to alter his life. Forever mysteriously drawn to the vast wilderness west of the Mississippi River and impelled by a strange longing, he plunges recklessly westward to satisfy these inner urges. Mesmerized by the exploits of Lewis an Clark, Jedediah Smith, William H. Ashley, John C. Fremont and others, this resolute and head strong man leaves the complacency of Rexburg, Ohio to follow the Oregon and Mormon Trails far from his family. Continually ignoring sage advise, Craig staggers from one brutal encounter to another, miraculously escaping each time with the accumulating feeling that he is receiving aid from an unknown force. As he wanders and explores in his fur trapping pursuits, Craig soon realizes that many trails and localities are familiar from some where in a past life. Searching for answers, he eventually meets his Mother of the Uintah' and confirms that, yes, he had been in these places before. Meeting a wandering and poverty stricken tribe of Utes, Craig quickly develops a bond of mutual respect and feeling of brotherhood with his primitive friends. A relationship that later saves his life when he is besieged by a group of marauding Arapahoes. Later, when inexorably integrated into the tribal culture of the Kwa'da Kiowa, Craig yields to tender sexual temptations with a young Shoshone slave girl only to discover the cruel penalties for such temerity, Heart broken and finding an intense dislike for himself festering within, he forms a strange but mutually beneficial alliance with an equally irresponsible, young prairie wolf. An alliance whereby each learns some facts of life from the other. Shyly returning to civilization, Craig is quickly introduced to the prejudice for appearing more savage than contemporary. Violence seems to gravitate to him in one brutal episode after another. Weary of it all and feeling unworthy of re-entering society he heads back to the one place he knows there are friends and he will feel at home, Keedskadee on the Green River in Wyoming territory. But again, in his last and only remaining haven, tragedy strikes with the loss of his two remaining side kicks and devastating news from back home. Craig Burton is crushed to his knees in abject despair. Hopelessly captivated by the grandeur and vastness of the American West and horribly alone, it is the love of a strong and caring woman who ultimately heals Craig Burtons soul and salvages a place in the wilderness for them.

The author makes no representations or warranties of any kind concerning the accuracy, usability, or usefulness of the contents. Many people think that humor and laughter are unproductive and unprofessional and that being serious is the only way to spend their personal and professional life. This is why most homes and workplaces have now become humorless, artificial, and stressful. But we don’t have to be humorless to run our lives. Having a sense of humor can lighten up difficult situations and creatively solve many personal and business problems. You must be able to think in atrocious, ridiculous, and illogical terms. Modern management consultants call this “thinking out of the box” but I call it old-fashioned creativity and humor that has existed for decades from Mark Twain to Mad Magazine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A landmark work of literary criticism Northrop Frye's Anatomy of Criticism is the magnum opus of one of the most important and influential literary theorists of the twentieth century. Breaking with the practice of close reading of individual texts, Frye seeks to describe a common basis for understanding the full range of literary forms by examining archetypes, genres, poetic language, and the relations among the text, the reader, and society. Using a dazzling array of examples, he argues that understanding "the structure of literature as a total form" also allows us to see the profoundly liberating effect literature can have.
