Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of my life stories and beliefs and how I healed myself using thought and the art of meditation. There was a time when I was so sick that I felt hopeless and fed up. I was not finding answers to any questions I had about my Crohns Colitis. When I got the doctors final recommendation that the only cure was removing part of my intestine and replacing it with something manmade (a colostomy bag), I realized I had to take a stand. I asked myself why my body was fighting me. I asked what in my brain was telling my body to attack itself. These are the questions that seemed to have no answer because I had no one to ask. I felt alone. Twenty years have gone by now and using meditation I have learned that the answers are within me. I am in the right time of my life and everything has come together to a point where I truly understand what I have done and can share it with you. Each one of these stories shows the power of thoughts of healing. Each story leaves you to ask the important questions of yourself so that you can find your own answers. This book is about healing from the inside-out. In this book I share my stories and a simple meditation technique that you can follow on your path to empower yourself. To learn more about me you can visit my websites: www.universalsourcehealing.com or www.ihealedmycrohnscolitis.com.

This book was released on 2023-02-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you're like most parents, you likely want the best for your kids. You want them to have long, healthy lives with a robust immune system. Unfortunately, a lot of students miss out on that opportunity. In fact, more than 3000 children under the age of 18 receive cancer diagnoses each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. There are a lot of children in that number who are struggling. Thankfully, there is still hope. New methods of cancer prevention and treatment are always being researched. And the incidence of cancer in young people is gradually decreasing thanks to the efforts of cancer researchers worldwide. By educating your child about the illness and its signs and symptoms, you can aid them in their fight against cancer. Here are some pointers for educating kids about cancer: 1. Discuss cancer with your children. Inform them that cancer is an illness that can affect anyone, regardless of age. Let them know that having cancer is not a sign of weakness or a deficiency in character. 2. Inform your children about free cancer screening and detection services (SCDS). Free cancer screenings and health education are provided to children and their families as part of the SCDS initiative
