HEALING HAPPENS WITH YOUR HELP Is illness really just the result of external factors such as viruses, bacteria, or environmental contaminants invading the body? Or is there something more going on? Could it be that the ancient metaphysicians were on to something with the adage ''As a person thinketh, so shall he be''? Do the mind and body truly imitate and imprint each other so that what affects one has an impact on the other? Is it possible that illness is the soul's way of letting us know that something we're thinking, doing, or saying is compromising who we truly are? This fascinating book provides the answers to these questions and more; and it uncovers the hidden meanings behind illnesses such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, and headaches. It doesn't only look at symptoms, but at origins - working not from the perspective of curing, but of healing. It explores the complex relationship of emotions, attitudes, and beliefs and provides a mapping process to show you where you energetically hold these triggers in the organs, glands, muscles, and spine. Most important, this book offers insight into how you can heal yourself by simply changing your thoughts, attitudes, and patterns.

Tall green grass. Subtle melodies of songbirds. Sharp whines of muskrats. Rustles of water running through the grasses. And at low tide, a pungent reminder of the treasures hidden beneath the surface.All are vital signs of the great salt marshes' natural resources. Now championed as critical habitats for plants, animals, and people because of the environmental service and protection they provide, these ecological wonders were once considered unproductive wastelands, home solely to mosquitoes and toxic waste, and mistreated for centuries by the human population. Exploring the fascinating biodiversity of these boggy wetlands, Salt Marshes offers readers a wealth of essential information about a variety of plants, fish, and animals, the importance of these habitats, consequences of human neglect and thoughtless development, and insight into how these wetlands recover. Judith S. Weis and Carol A. Butler shed ample light on the human impact, including chapters on physical and biological alterations, pollution, and remediation and recovery programs. In addition to a national and global perspective, the authors place special emphasis on coastal wetlands in the Atlantic and Gulf regions, as well as the San Francisco Bay Area, calling attention to their historical and economic legacies. Written in clear, easy-to-read language, Salt Marshes proves that the battles for preservation and conservation must continue, because threats to salt marshes ebb and flow like the water that runs through them.

When Carol Chapman sold her home in Connecticut, she soon found herself on one of those roads less traveled...and that has made all the difference. Arriving in Texas, she bought a ranch and created The Last Refuge, a sanctuary for unwanted dogs, cats, goats, and, most of all, for horses, mules, and donkeys that were destined for the slaughterhouse. Meet Chipper, a chocolate Lab who not only participates in nursing horses back to health, but has also raised cats, lambs, and baby chicks. Learn how goats secretly yearn for the mountains of their ancestors and happily leap onto the hood of a car to illustrate that point. Follow Chapman around for a day and discover that it's hard to get out of shape when caring for horses--if lugging what has to go in one end (massive buckets of water, sixty-pound bales of hay, and fifty-pound bags of grain) doesn't keep a waistline trim, shoveling up piles of what comes out the other end will. Grab a cup of coffee, pull up a hay bale, and enjoy Chapman's unconventional collection of earthy, hilarious, but always heart-warming and timeless reminiscences.

I have felt for many years that there have perhaps never been a 75 to 100 years that have seen so much progress and change, both for good and bad. Life has always been mixed with both good times and bad times, and so it will until the Lord returns. But this type of good and bad is not what I am writing about. In the horse and buggy era and early years of the car, there were a lot of hard times: poverty, sickness, and epidemics, but by and large, the moral fiber of most people was much better than now. There are many things to blame, but the sad part of this is that I believe the Christians are the most to blame for not getting involved. The scapegoat idea: it's all in the Lord's hands, we don't have to worry or do anything. In the meantime, much has happened because of the ACLU, our court system, the pressure of the entertainment world and the Democratic party, and too many Republicans voting wrong. It is already illegal for the kids to pray in school or even take their Bible to school. They are trying to get "In God We Trust" off our money and take for God and Country out of the Pledge of Allegiance However, I feel there is a trend now of thinking seriously about God and morals and hard work, and there will have to be if this world is going to last. So I am dedicating this to my nine children, grandchildren and great grandchildren and anyone who reads it that it will help them see what a change has taken place in the 1900's and that it might help them on the road of life, plus hopefully bring some enjoyment.

Do you know why 92 percent of all diets fail? It's because they don't deal with the complexity of weight management. Losing weight is not simply a matter of cutting calories or increasing exercise. The body's management of calories involves every organ system and is influenced by such far-ranging variables as food and environmental allergies; prescription medications; environmental toxins; sexual, emotional, or physical abuse; and other highly personal factors. In fact, the secret of weight management is that it must be geared to your particular body and your special needs. Weight Success for a Lifetime is designed to help you discover how to understand your particular body, so you can lose unwanted pounds and keep them off forever. Noted weight-management expert Carol Simontacchi has designed this comprehensive weight-management program based on a 48-week curriculum, with twelve lessons in four modules. In the first module, Living Successfully with Food, she discusses such topics as what makes a healthy diet, why most diets don't work, and how to change your set point to help you lose weight more easily. She also covers how to cope with food cravings, food allergies, and binge eating. The second module, Getting the Body Back into Shape, covers such lifestyle issues as how to create a personal exercise plan, digestion, and ridding the body of toxins. The Hidden Issues of Weight Management, the third module, is devoted to medical issues, including depression, hormone dysfunction, problems related to stress, and side effects of prescription medications. The final module, Healing the Heart and the Mind, delves into how to have fun with food, dealing with abuse issues, fear of success and body image, dressing for personal beauty, and making health a lifelong journey. This all-inclusive, time-tested program is designed to help you achieve permanent weight loss forever. Book jacket.
