"UnTherapy" challenges the premise of self-improvement by
questioning the notion that painful experiences inevitably result
in emotional crippling. Reflective exercises enable readers to take
responsibility for how they create their own suffering so they can
reverse old patterns of self-neglect.
'Osteo-arthritis does not kill, it merely tortures. It seems often
to attack those people who have led active lives, and are otherwise
the most healthy. Perhaps this is why one sees so many sufferers
among the very old, and perhaps too, there is some mythical justice
which forces the otherwise healthy to learn fortitude and patience
through suffering.' This is a frank, and at times amusing, account
of the 20 year long suffering of the author, and her methods of
overcoming the debilitating effects of osteo-arthritis. She makes
it clear that she has not found a cure, but has found relief
through treatment and exercises, hoping that this book will provide
useful information for fellow sufferers, and will encourage others
who are not yet suffering to such a degree, to seek early
treatment. Contents Include: The Beginning - The Advance of the
Enemy - The Quack - Faith-Healing - National Health - Crisis - How

"A heartwarming and inspiring story that will change the way you
look at life." --Vikas Swarup, New York Times bestselling author of
Slumdog Millionaire "An Eat Pray Love-like memoir." --Pam Grout, #1
New York Times bestselling author of E-Squared When doctors have
all but given up, when a diagnosis eludes you, and when every test
result raises more questions than answers, how do you save
yourself? By the time Amy B. Scher was twenty-eight-years-old, she
had lived through almost a decade of misdiagnoses, excruciating
pain, brain lesions, bone marrow biopsies, blood transfusions, and
multiple hospital stays to treat her late-stage, chronic Lyme
disease. Taking forty-four pills a day and deteriorating rapidly,
she consulted with more than sixty doctors, including the top
experts in Los Angeles, the world-renowned Mayo Clinic in
Minneapolis, and a state-of-the-art hospital in Chicago. When the
best physicians in America labeled her condition incurable and
potentially terminal, it was up to Amy to blaze her own path
forward. Then, in a stroke of serendipity, she heard about an
experimental treatment only available in India--human embryonic
stem cell therapy--which had as much probability of killing her as
it did of curing her. She boarded a plane with no idea of what
awaited her: culture shock, radical medical treatment, and most
surprising of all, life-affirming love. With warmth and humor,
Amy's powerful and uplifting story of sheer determination is for
anyone who believes in--or doubts--the existence of miracles. It is
for anyone who wants desperately to believe in the power of the
human spirit when it seems that all hope is lost. For everyone who
has suffered from chronic pain, grappled with an autoimmune
condition, fought for a diagnosis, or trusted their gut and their
body when no one else did, Amy is a living example of how our
instinct to survive can propel us onward.

Addiction Unplugged: How to Be Free acknowledges that for far too
long, we have all been playing out a victim consciousness,
convincing ourselves that dependency and powerlessness are
absolutely fundamental to the human condition. Nowhere is this
belief more deeply ingrained than in the world of addiction and in
the traditional treatment and recovery programs available to the
masses. Drawing on modern-day scientific discoveries, ancient
spiritual wisdom, and real-life testimonies, John Flaherty presents
readers with the practical means to move beyond the drama of
addictive behaviors; leading the way out from victim mentality and
into a more compelling, spiritually liberating, and empowered way
of living. Warm and inspirational, this profound message comes into
your life when you need it desperately. It brings you to a new
level of conscious awareness and helps you uncover the judgments,
beliefs, and thoughts that have kept you fearful, limited, and
suppressed. Addiction Unplugged: How to Be Free is a book for the
twenty-first century. It is a radical departure from the
traditional ways of treating addictions, presenting revolutionary
new insights and groundbreaking processes which open the way to an
entirely different experience of yourself.
