By Judy T. Short
Judy Short had a root canal in the morning and learned that afternoon that she had flunked her mammogram. She describes it as "Quite possibly one of the worst days of my life." Everyone wants to meet Judy's Killer Bunny (K.B.)! He is the visualization aid that she used to help in her battle with breast cancer. Judy envisioned that her white blood cells were Killer Bunnies, attacking and eating the cancer cells. Then, since they were rabbits, they reproduced quickly -- which is the goal for the body's immune system, for white cells to reproduce and effectively fight off disease. Judy's visualization took physical form as you can see from the cover photo. This isn't just another woman's story about breast cancer -- it is about hoping and coping and maintaining a positive outlook and sense of humor throughout the experience. Judy shares the practical insights she learned during her mastectomy, breast reconstruction and chemotherapy. She frankly addresses the gambit of emotions from anger and fear to hope and defiance. More than 185,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer each year -- that is one in eight. This book is for them and for all cancer patients, their families and their friends.

In the summer of 1987 on my way to California I visited a friend in New York. He invited me to accompany him to Pineridge Reservation in South Dakota where he planned to go on a traditional vision quest, and this journey changed my life. I lived in Berlin, Germany at the time and had been suffering since 4 years from severe panic attacks. After participating in a wonderful healing ceremony for a little girl who had been born with panic in her soul, and could never be approached by anyone but her mother, and who now smiled radiantly at us, free of fear - after this miracle the medicine man offered to do a ceremony for me. I was surprised. Why, did I need a healing? So used was I to my suffering that I could not imagine why I should need any help. And besides, out there on the reservation there was so much going on that was new and miraculous for me that I never had a panic attack. But since I did not want to disappoint him after this generous offer I agreed, and after the ceremony he conducted I never suffered another panic attack. In addition the book contains the medicine man's story, the fascinating account of a vision quest, and the very touching story of a man who was healed from Hodgkin's Disease after his doctors had given up on him.

My main purpose in writing this book has been to share my experiences and triumphs with my fellow victims of rheumatoid arthritis. We don't have to be ashamed or embarrassed just because we have rheumatoid arthritis. The disease is not a crime or sin. It does, however, sentence us to life imprisonment. But there are ways to parole ourselves from this prison. Together we can combat this terrible disease with phenomenal results. I am living proof. Am I so different? Don't we all in the end have to learn patience and more patience, discipline and tenacity? My advice couldn't be simpler: "Think positive, think possibility and never give up." My RA is about as severe as it gets, but even with all my pain in the early years, I've managed to live a happy, full life. I'd even say "a normal life"-but who's normal? No one! My hope is that my experience will give you shortcuts for finding the normal life unique to you.

By Michael Greely M.D.
As a family doctor, I realize that a great “teacher” for me has been the struggles of my patients. As a photographer, I realize that my greatest teacher is nature. This book originates from the synthesis of these two realizations. Within the confines of an exam room or hospital bed, patients talk about their struggles with doctors and nurses. I hear two common question as patients grapple with life, “Why me?” and “How do I emotionally get through this problem of mine?” Though the names and circumstances have been altered to protect identities, I attempt to answer these questions through the inspiration of my patients and the “reflections” of our natural world. My hope for this book is that it reaches some people who have asked these questions and keep looking for some answers.

It was simply fascinating for me to research several leading doctors, nutritionists and other leading experts in their fields to find that many had cured themselves or family members of major illnesses. This was a huge challenge to locate the right material to research with no medical background. Further I could have misfired and used the wrong approach that would have not worked and made me worse instead of better. I did all of this research and rehab while suffering from a major illness, multiple sclerosis, more commonly referred to as MS. My stage of MS at the time I began rehab efforts was so severe that I was on medication where I had to give myself a shot once per week. I struggled severely to walk daily to the point I was ready to order a scooter to begin getting around, not for convenience. Walking to the mailbox or to put out the garbage required planning and being careful to avoid falling. I had several falls prior to rehab but these falls began to diminish with rehab. This book tells you I rehabbed myself using a totally natural approach and survived total disability. Today I continue with many of the same things daily to maintain myself that I used in rehab. My sequel just released in 6/2011 tells y0u how I am doing now as well as gives you some adjustments I have made based on my experiences.

STEPS ALONG THE HEALING PATH is for the person who wants to know about true self-healing, how to become his or her own self-healer. The AMA recently disclosed that one out of every eight dollars spent for medical care in this country is for "alternative" health care. It is clear that Americans are searching for the best methods available in health care. STEPS ALONG THE HEALING PATH teaches us to first look within to solve our health problems so we can gain access to the inner wisdom that is our birthright. It illustrates how many people have tapped into this inner wisdom and used it to find their own solutions to illnesses and other problems in their lives.

La practica deportiva, ya constituida como auténtico fenómeno social de nuestro siglo, responde a dos necesidades: deporte de recreación y competición y actividad deportiva como mantenimiento de la condición física. En el primer caso, la intensificación del entrenamiento comporta lesiones por sobrecarga, por gestos incorrectos, etc. En el segundo, la actividad física se utiliza como recuperadora de funciones juveniles (agilidad, resistencia) o readaptadora de enfermedades y lesiones. Este libro presenta 1020 ejercicios destinados a la recuperación de lesiones y el proceso de readaptación a efectuar para la nueva integración deportiva. Dividido en dos partes, la primera de ellas, nos descubre las lesiones, diferenciando las de las extremidades superiores, las del tronco y las de las extremidades inferiores. La segunda parte, totalmente práctica, se centra en los ejercicios de recuperación diferenciando entre: readaptación de la extremidad superior del tronco, de la extremidad inferior y de las desalineaciones vertebrales. Cada uno de los ejercicios presentados incluye: objetivos, consigna, formación y situación inicial a partir de la cual se desarrolla el ejercicio. El autor, Mario Lloret Riera, es doctor en Educación Física y Medicina; profesor de INEF de Barcelona y ex-deportista olímpico.
