The book is a combined memoir and medical saga of one large family's multi-year battle with cancer, with a victory and a tragedy. Although it describes the unusual circumstance of a family in which a physician father and a son were stricken by advanced-stage, early-onset cancers, the book primarily focuses on the inspiring story of the son, who--at age 29--was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer and fought valiantly for 3 years before succumbing at 32. The son's diagnosis reflected an alarming development--the global rise of cancer in younger people. The book is framed to be helpful to cancer sufferers and their families and offers wide information about the science behind cancer and its treatment--past, present, and possible future. It also chronicles the harsh experience of undergoing treatment, faced with extraordinary courage. The book deals with family, love, loss, science, and spirituality.

An accessible guide to time-honored Indigenous wisdom, healing recipes, and wellness rituals for modern life from an experienced curandera.

In Earth Medicines, Felicia Cocotzin Ruiz, a curandera (or traditional healer) who is a Xicana with Tewa ancestry, combines Indigenous wisdom from many traditions with the power of the four elements. This modern guide is designed to support readers on their path to wellness with lifestyle practices and recipes perfected by Ruiz in her twenty-five years of training and working as a curandera. Ruiz teaches readers to be their own healers by discovering their own ancestral practices and cultivating a personal connection to the elements.

These healing recipes and rituals draw on the power of Water, Air, Earth, and Fire--a reminder that the natural elements are the origins of everything and can heal not only our bodies, but the mind and spirit as well.

In chapters organized by each element, readers will first find recipes and advice for:

Promoting inner harmony through Hydrotherapy for Headache Relief, Mayan Tea to Calm the Mind, or Ginger Fire Honey Chews

Nurturing beauty inside and out with Tepezcohuite Honey Mask, Salt of the Earth Deodorant, or Sweetwater Herbal Mouth Rinse

Taking care of the spirit by creating an ancestral altar, making loose incense, or performing a Mayan Bajo Steaming Ritual

In The Physician Within You, Dr. Gladys Taylor McGarey shares the guiding philosophy of her 50-year medical practice. The real-life stories of her patients dramatically illustrates the potential of Dr. McGarey's humane and wise approach to medical care and gives you an exhilarating glimpse of the future of medicine. This book tells the real stories of real people, their living experiences as they have enriched my life and as I have influenced theirs. This book is for all people, physicians and patients alike. There is no physician who, at one time or another, will not be a patient and each of us has within us that divine spark which we have chosen to call the physician within. There have been times when I have worked with a patient who had a bleeding peptic ulcer. The surgeon and I would remove the offending part of the stomach and bring about a cure but if that is all that we did, there would not be true healing. We needed to get to the basis of why they got sick in the first place and if we did not, the problem would be back perhaps at an even deeper and more severe level. We could have cured the disease but not had a healing of the patient - not without bringing forth the physician within.Dr. Gladys McGarey.

Could the diet of our ancestors prevent, treat, and reverse most cases of overweight, coronary heart disease (CHD), cancer, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, Alzheimer's disease, dementia, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and autoimmune disease, including multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis, as well as most other chronic, degenerative diseases? And is this a diet plan that is simple, effective, and allows one to eat to their heart's content? The simple answers are yes, and yes!

This book presents a vast body of published and original research that results in profound conclusions: Overweight, obesity, and most all chronic diseases can be prevented simply by the elimination of processed foods and vegetable oils from the diet. And while the science and evidence presented are immense, the tenets of the authors' advice are deceptively simple. We can prevent and reverse most chronic diseases by eliminating the major processed food components - including refined flour, sugars, and most vegetable oils. Simultaneously, excess weight drops effortlessly, and energy increases, while fatigue, brain fog, and a myriad of other mysterious symptoms generally disappear. The effects of aging are obviously delayed. Most people are shocked at their results, including the authors.

And what is the single most important component of an ancestral diet? The answer is as simple as the elimination of vegetable oils - oils that are extremely high in omega-6 fats - which are highly pro-oxidative, pro-inflammatory, toxic, and nutrient deficient. Come witness for yourself... the evidence is beyond compelling... it even meets the Bradford Hill criteria of 'proof, ' as the authors have clearly demonstrated.

Most dentists are familiar with the words CoDiscovery and CoDiagnosis, yet few are familiar with the origin of the words and their true intended purpose. CoDiscovery and CoDiagnosis are key steps in a three-stage participative patient development process Bob Barkley called Three Phase Adult Education. The purpose of Three Phase Adult Education is to take a person who is generally unaware of the extent and complexity of their situation, strategically elevate their understanding, connect that understanding to what's most important to them, and facilitate the taking of appropriate action. It's a predictable process when a dentist and care team learn how to understand each person on a level that they are able to function as empathetic, principal-centered leaders.

This book explores the origin of Three Phase Adult Education and explains how and why it works so well. Additionally, it provides numerous examples of how the concepts are applied, as well as how it positively influenced the lives and practice trajectories of many of greatest leaders in dentistry.

As every reader knows, the profession of dentistry is rapidly changing. Increased efficiencies, technology, practice consolidation and corporatization are making dentistry look more and more like a well-paid, highly skilled trade instead of a true healthcare profession. CoDiscovery helps you understand these trends (and therefore your choices) and by so doing, creates the opportunity to develop a preferred future.

The concept of Photosynthesis (building-up something using the Energy

of light) is presently applied only to the plants kingdom. However the

unraveling of the intrinsic property of melanin to split and re-form the

water molecule breaks the paradigm. During a study about the three main

causes of blindness initiated in 1990 in Aguascalientes, Mexico; Dr. Solis

Herrera found the previously unknown capacity of melanin molecule to

absorb photonic energy, dissipating it in a unique manner: splitting the water

molecule. The very first step of life in plants and humans is practically the

same: the dissociation of the water molecule.

First went the power. Then came the water, and for five days, the country's oldest hospital was under siege. The never-before-told story of the heroic doctors, nurses, and patients who fought to survive Hurricane Katrina at Charity Hospital in New Orleans.This book traces a remarkable five-day transformation of an infirm institution, caught in a sea of death and indifference, into an island of care and tenderness. The hour-by-hour recreation of this hospital's final days is one of the most grievous and heroic stories in American history. Jim Carrier, who moved to New Orleans 28 days before Katrina (and lost his home), recreates with emotional and poignant detail the rich, sad and uplifting saga of Charity Hospital.

The Superclass idea is the latest step in the evolution of ideas of Dr Rajan Sankaran. Starting with his concept of disease as a pattern of perception, he went on to originate the Sensation Method which focussed on the core experience of the individual and classified the patterns of such experience into Plant, Mineral and Animal kingdoms as well as into Miasms. He then discovered the WISE processes which are tools for directly accessing the person's core pattern. Within the Plant kingdom, Dr Sankaran started discovering the specific sensation of each family then of each order and of each subclass. There are 6 subclasses of dicotyledons. He observed that the central theme of each subclass of the dicotyledons had things in common with a certain animal group and a certain mineral group. This discovery led to the concept of Superclasses. Each of the 6 Superclasses has a specific dynamic response which connects remedies from the 3 kingdoms. Identifying the Superclass in each individual enables the practitioner to narrow the search for the remedy. The Superclass idea adds a new dimension to the understanding of remedies and people. This understanding has a far reaching and universal applicability and could become an important milestone in the development of homeopathy as well as in the understanding of humans.
