El doctor Arturo Goicoechea es un reconocido neurólogo, pionero en España en la investigación de los llamados «síntomas sin explicación médica y en neurobiología del dolor.

El autor propone, de manera directa, divulgativa y esperanzadora, la desmitificación de creencias erróneas sobre la enfermedad como herramienta terapéutica esencial, apostando decididamente por el modelo pedagógico como instrumento para enfrentarnos a los síntomas sin patología orgánica, ofreciendo los conocimientos y las herramientas para aliviar el dolor de los pacientes en la batalla de la recuperación, y brindando, además, la información necesaria sobre el origen de las dolencias en términos neuronales, con la finalidad de desaprender conductas y reprogramar las respuestas del cerebro.

LifeWave patches are adhesive applications intended for placement on targeted areas of the body, stimulating the body's inherent energy and wellness mechanisms without relying on pharmaceuticals or synthetic substances. Every patch is crafted with organic crystals that engage with body heat and light to activate particular cellular functions. Through a technique known as phototherapy, LifeWave patches stimulate specific biological responses, including enhanced energy production and better cellular repair, by gently and non-invasively applying light. LifeWave patches function in a manner akin to acupuncture, focusing on specific areas of the body to enhance overall well-being. However, rather than using needles, LifeWave patches function by reflecting particular wavelengths of light back into the body. The patches feature a combination of natural components encapsulated in an organic crystal framework. When placed on the skin, the body's infrared heat triggers the patch, which subsequently reflects specific wavelengths of light that encourage various biochemical processes. Every type of patch is crafted to elicit a unique physiological response, targeting particular health requirements. The technology operates through a non-invasive method, ensuring that nothing penetrates the skin or enters the bloodstream. Instead, it harnesses the body's energy to stimulate various processes that promote health and well-being. This approach makes LifeWave patches an attractive option for individuals seeking non-invasive, drug-free solutions to improve their well-being.

Sciatica is the feeling of pain, numbness, electric shocks, or strange sensations in the seat and running down the leg. It will afflict some five million Americans this year. In easy-to-understand terms, Loren Fishman demystifies the relationship between neurological injury and sciatica, explains the most common causes, leads readers to an exact diagnosis, and outlines the options available for lasting comfort and cure.

Psychedelic Shamanism presents the spiritual and shamanic properties of psychotropic plants and discusses how they can be used to understand the structure of human consciousness. Author Jim DeKorne offers authoritative information about the cultivation, processing, and correct dosages for various psychotropic plant substances including the belladonna alkaloids, d-lysergic acid amide, botanical analogues of LSD, mescaline, ayahuasca, DMT, and psilocybin.

Opening with vivid descriptions of the author's personal experiences with psychedelic drugs, the book describes the parallels that exist among shamanic states of consciousness, the use of psychedelic catalysts, and the hidden structure of the human psyche. DeKorne suggests that psychedelic drugs allow us to examine the shamanic dimensions of reality. This worldview, he says, is ubiquitous across space, time, and culture, with individuals separated by race, distance, and culture routinely describing the same core reality that provides powerful evidence of the dimensional nature of consciousness itself. The book guides the reader through the imaginal realm underlying our awareness, a world in which spiritual entities exist to reconnect us with ourselves, humanity, and our planet. Accurate drawings of plants, including peyote, Salvia divinorum, and San Pedro, enhance the book's usefulness.
