– Chris Holder, Naturopathic Doctor

You already possess all the power and potential you need to move beyond your past, live fully in the present, and create a future of your own design…

Now discover the KEY to unlocking it with speed and ease!

You may have little or no control over many of the things that happen in your life. But you have utterly UNLIMITED control over your PERCEPTION of, and RELATIONSHIP to, them. Accepting this truth, and learning how to work with it, may be the most priceless gift you ever give yourself.

Follow The Medicine: Awakening Self-Empowerment is not just another book on “positive thinking” – instead, it shows you how to take full control of your life by training your mind to see the positive in ANY situation.

It’s all about seeing Life as happening FOR you, rather than TO you, and knowing there’s a life-enhancing take-away in everything that happens – once you know where and how to find it! And that’s exactly what Scarlet Ravin teaches you to do, in a style that is uniquely her own.

Scarlet is an Intuitive Guide, entrepreneur, and author whose greatest wish is that each of us can awaken to the power we already hold inside – the power to ALTER life by changing how we SEE life. The power to produce lasting change in ANY area of our life, according to the dreams and desires we hold dear.

So if you’re hungry for more – more love, more joy, more freedom, money, fulfillment … if you’d rather be LIVING your dreams than slowly, painfully giving up on them, if you’d like to fully love yourself and know how unlimited you are, if you’d like to banish fear and anger from your heart, become the creator of your own destiny, and have the time of your life for the REST of your life…

…then grab yourself a copy of Follow The Medicine: Awakening Self-Empowerment today, and read it from cover to cover. SEVERAL times! (And while you’re at it, get a few extra copies as gifts for those people in your life who are also struggling to find, and follow, their own path to personal power.)

Heal Your Mind: Your Prescription for Wholeness through Medicine, Affirmations, and Intuition

Many of us grapple with how to stay happy, calm, and focused in a world that seems to get more complex by the minute. How do we keep our wits about us, our mood stable, and our memory intact when our brains and bodies are bombarded with information and influences from every side? This one-of-a-kind resource combines cutting-edge science with compassion and wisdom to offer answers we can really use.

Heal Your Mind continues the three-pronged healing approach that Dr. Mona Lisa Schulz and Louise Hay pioneered together in All Is Well: Heal Your Body with Medicine, Affirmations, and Intuition. Here, it’s applied to aspects of the mind ranging from depression, anxiety, and addiction to memory, learning, and even mystical states. You’ll learn what’s going on in your brain and body when:

·         You feel sad, angry, or panicked

·         An addictive substance or behavior has hold of you

·         You have trouble focusing, reading, or remembering

·         A past trauma is clouding your mind in the present

·         An emotional state is a clue to a physical ailment

·         And more

And in each chapter, you’ll get a “virtual healing experience” through case studies in the All Is Well Clinic, where Dr. Mona Lisa uses medical intuition to pinpoint issues in a wide range of prototypical client histories and she and Louise offer solutions and affirmations to help restore well-being.

Today, the “pill-for-every-ill” approach is so prevalent that we may think our minds and bodies need an endless array of expensive, ever-changing pharmaceutical interventions. In truth, medicines are just one approach to healing the mind; nutritional supplements give us another important way to support mind-body health; and affirmations, as well as various forms of therapy, can restore us to balance by changing the way we think. Heal Your Mind puts all these tools at your disposal to help you choose your own path toward wholeness.

            “To my room,” he said, “to play with my new socks.”

Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End

In Being Mortal, best-selling author Atul Gawande tackles the hardest challenge of his profession: How medicine can not only improve life but also the process of its ending.

Medicine has triumphed in modern times, transforming birth, injury, and infectious disease from harrowing to manageable. But in the inevitable condition of aging and death, the goals of medicine seem too frequently to run counter to the interest of the human spirit. Nursing homes, preoccupied with safety, pin patients into railed beds and wheelchairs. Hospitals isolate the dying, checking for vital signs long after the goals of cure have become moot. Doctors, committed to extending life, continue to carry out devastating procedures that in the end extend suffering.

Gawande, a practicing surgeon, addresses his profession’s ultimate limitation, arguing that quality of life is the desired goal for patients and families. Gawande offers examples of freer, more socially fulfilling models for assisting the infirm and dependent elderly, and he explores the varieties of hospice care to demonstrate that a person’s last weeks or months may be rich and dignified.

Full of eye-opening research and riveting storytelling, Being Mortal asserts that medicine can comfort and enhance our experience even to the end, providing not only a good life but also a good end.

All is Well: Heal Your Body with Medicine, Affirmation and Intuition

Structured around seven emotional centers, which mirror our chakra system, Louise and Mona Lisa examine the connections between these centers and the body. Drawing on years of research, they explore probable mental causes for the physical manifestation of illness associated with each center, and then lay out how to address these health concerns. Combining two complementary systems, Louise discusses new thought patterns and offers new affirmations to counteract specific emotional weaknesses, and Mona Lisa, who has worked for many years as a medical intuitive and physician, helps readers listen to their own bodies intuition and prescribes medical solutions that are based in Western science. They provide real-world examples of people who faced illness and outline the specific emotional and physical prescriptions that helped them heal.
