Dr Kelly Brogan, New York Times bestselling author and holistic
psychiatrist, proposes an alternative to medicating mental,
emotional and physical pain away. '[Will] change how you approach
your health and mental wellbeing.' Sarah Gottfried, author of The
Hormone Cure. For years, we've been telling ourselves that our
difficult feelings - sadness, rage, shame, intensity, worry - are
somehow 'not okay'. All too often, we've relied on the promise of
pharmaceuticals to tamp them down. The fact is that these feelings
are a vital part of our experience. They are real. And those of us
who feel them most strongly are the canaries in the coal mine -
sensitive to things that are seriously wrong in the world today. In
a book that's both provocative and promising, holistic psychiatrist
Kelly Brogan MD shows us that we don't have to medicate our mental,
emotional and physical pain away - that the best way out is
through. Then she charts a new path to get real, get well and get
free. The journey includes: * Coming to a new appreciation of the
meaning behind symptoms * Exploring the 5 reversible physical
drivers of so-called mental illness * Starting a process of radical
physical healing with inclusive details of Dr Brogan's
history-making 30-day protocol * Taking a deeper dive into the
spiritual awakening and expansion that comes when you reclaim your
real self from conventional medicine Our experiences, Dr Brogan
argues, aren't problems or pathologies; they reflect what we need
to accept, acknowledge and transform in order to truly become who
we are. Own Your Self is a journey of healing and coming home to
ourselves. 'Kelly Brogan engages us in a courageous conversation
about the epidemic of mental health issues in our society. Her work
is an important part of the understanding that will set us free.'

to Love
'Farber [is] a lucid and courageous witness to the power-play
behind the first "scamdemic," . . . [Her] work is journalism at its
best—solid, lucid, and humane, attacking wrongs that few dare
touch, and thereby helping right them.' —Mark Crispin Miller,
bestselling author and professor of media studies at NYU On April
23, 1984, in a packed press conference room in Washington, DC, the
secretary of health and human services declared, 'The probable
cause of AIDS has been found.' By the next day, 'probable' had
fallen away, and the novel retrovirus later named HIV became
forever lodged in global consciousness as 'the AIDS virus.' Celia
Farber, then an intrepid young reporter
for SPIN magazine, was the only journalist to question
the official narrative and dig into the science of AIDS. She
reported on the 'evidence' that was being continually cited and
repeated by health officials and the press, the deadliness of AZT,
and Dr. Fauci’s trials on children, infants, and pregnant
mothers. Throughout, Faber’s reportage was largely ignored. She
was maligned, maliciously attacked, and ultimately cancelled. Now,
forty years after her original reporting, Farber’s Serious
Adverse Events: An Uncensored History of AIDS is reissued
with a new foreword by Mark Crispin Miller, shining much-needed
light on her groundbreaking work once again. More relevant than
ever, this book serves as an essential foundation to understanding
its catastrophic sequel: COVID-19. Serious Adverse
Events makes clear that the tactics employed at the height of
HIV/AIDS—the fearmongering, cancel culture, and “woke”
takeover of science, medicine, and journalism—persist today. The
response to COVID-19 isn’t new: it is a well-trod and dangerous
path in the social landscape. 'Groundbreaking work.'—Bob
Guccione, Jr., founder of SPIN magazine
Written for laypeople and professionals, this is an easy-to-read
guide to maintaining healthy bones and taking charge of health
care. It addresses the challenge of finding a competent centre that
will discuss bone density results and offer preventative advice.
"The Addict" opens a window on the very private world of
prescription drug addiction, revealing the harrowing story of a
young woman whose life has been taken over by a need she can't
extinguish.
Lucy's first appointment with Dr. Michael Stein on a sunny
April day began a yearlong series of encounters that took her back
to the origins of her addiction and unraveled a life driven by
compulsion and the constant pursuit of the next pill. "The Addict"
follows Lucy from the start of her treatment, through relapse, to
her eventual long-term recovery, including her breakup with a
destructive boyfriend whose own drug addiction surpassed hers. It
is an unforgettable tale of a young woman living on the edge but
determined to take control of her life--and a deeply personal
account of a doctor on the front lines of an epidemic.
