Sailing on Broken Pieces is told from the triple perspective of a
sibling, caregiver and emergency room doctor who treats people with
mental illness in the emergency room and copes with the same
concerns at home. It is told through vignettes from the emergency
room intertwined with common symptoms of mental illness. The goal
of Sailing on Broken Pieces is to eliminate the stigma of mental
illness. Oscar winning Best Actress, Jennifer Lawrence said: "It's
just so bizarre how in this world if you have asthma, you take
asthma medication. If you have diabetes, you take diabetes
medication. But as soon as you have to take medicine for your mind,
it's such a stigma behind it." Sailing on Broken Pieces is unique
from this triple perspective of ER doctor, sibling and caregiver of
a person with mental illness. One in 3 Americans (65 Million) is a
family caregiver for persons with mental illness. Sailing on Broken
Pieces provides strategies and insights on how to cope while
providing support for their family member.
Many people suffer from feelings of stress and anxiety in their
everyday lives. For people with Asperger Syndrome (AS), this stress
can be particularly difficult to manage. On a daily basis people
with AS must fit into a world that seems totally foreign to them
and this can increase feelings of alienation and anxiety, making
life's challenges especially hard to cope with. The first book on
anxiety written specifically for adults with Asperger Syndrome,
this book offers practical advice on how individuals with AS can
manage their anxiety more effectively. As a person with AS who has
struggled with feelings of anxiety and learnt how to overcome them,
Nick Dubin shares his own tried and tested solutions along with
up-to-date research on stress management for individuals with AS,
including a chapter on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Dubin
explores the key problem areas that can lead to anxiety for people
with AS such as lack of social skills, difficulties establishing
romantic relationships and uncertainty about employment. Asperger
Syndrome and Anxiety provides real solutions to a common problem
and is essential reading for anyone with AS who has trouble
managing stress. The book will also be of interest to family
members, teachers and other professionals working with individuals
with AS.

Listen within. You are the expert in you. Chronic vertigo,
dizziness, and tinnitus are invisible disruptions to a person's
life that can be unresponsive to traditional treatments, leaving
sufferers feeling hopeless. Yet healing is possible using
neuroplasticity, the brain and body's capacity to change itself.
So, why is nobody teaching us how to do it? Vestibular audiologist
and neuroplasticity therapist Joey Remenyi explains why holistic
neuroplasticity is often overlooked; why nobody else can prescribe
it for you; and why ignoring, denying, distracting, and avoiding
symptoms may not work. Joey gives hope to the hopeless with her
pioneering self-study approach to healing chronic symptoms that
outlines how we can rebuild a new normal with methodical steps.
Using client case studies and her own personal experience, Joey
guides the reader to gently feel their way through
healing--physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Including home exercise ideas and a heart-centered approach to the
science, Rock Steady is the handbook for anyone with chronic
unwanted sensations or sounds in their body.
From the cofounders of The Well Daily, a playfully-illustrated,
informative, and easy-to-use meditation guidebook-including an
eight-week plan for busy novices-that helps even the busiest
would-be meditator incorporate this practice into their lifestyle
and enjoy its many physical and emotional benefits. We've all heard
the reports about meditation: that it helps us relieve stress and
anxiety, improve our moods, lose weight, and sleep better. We know
that it can make us healthier, nicer, a kinder parent, a better
coworker, a more thoughtful spouse. But there's a catch-you
actually have to do it. Written for the many, many people whose
schedule or skepticism has kept them from trying meditation, Just
Sit is an approachable and visually engaging beginner's guide.
Assuaging fears, answering questions, and providing real-world
information to demystify the process, Sukey and Elizabeth Novogratz
provide a hands-on look at what meditation really is, what is does,
and how to do it. The authors make clear that meditation doesn't
have to be complicated or follow a specific protocol. The most
important part, to "just sit," can lead to a lifelong practice,
tailored to anyone's lifestyle. A perfect blend of information and
instruction, Just Sit covers everything you wanted to know but were
too afraid to ask. Sukey and Elizabeth address meditation myths and
realities, offer advice on how to combat awkwardness, extoll the
physical and emotional benefits of meditation, show readers how to
find those precious minutes to meditate every day, and more. They
also include an eight-week plan to get help readers kick start-and
stay with-their own daily practice. Time to ditch the excuses. With
this warm, encouraging, sassy guide, everyone will want to show
up-and sit down-every day.
