I wrote the book, Extraordinary Healthcare, using a word processor, thinking that the way to write books is with a word processor. In my case, since I use a Macintosh, I used Apple's Pages word processor. One of the reasons I chose Pages was because it could not only output the PDF file for the print version, but it can also output EPUB files. I could have one file, and only need to maintain one file, to serve two purposes, the print book and an e-book. Little did I know what trouble I was getting into, or that there was a better way to write altogether.

Today is a Special Day!
My new book goes in for publication.
I've been writing it for over two years, so it's wonderful to finally get it finished.

Here's an introduction to the book from the back cover.

This is an excerpt from my forthcoming book... 

Healing happens on many levels. One of the levels is the mental level. When you don't use your mind properly, you create chaos within yourself which makes healing much more difficult, because mental chaos creates physiological chaos. The way your mind functions is directly related to your self image, which includes the ideals about yourself, the beliefs about yourself, and the way you treat others. The four noble principles address your mental set up and how it influences your self image and your interactions with others.

I was talking recently with the Assistant District Attorney for a nearby county. She said, "In this one county we have a case load of about 150 criminally charged cases per week for domestic violence. These are the ones that actually make it to court. The actual number is 40 times that amount." (About 6000 cases per week -- 24,000 per month!) And this is for just one fairly average county.

I was shocked.

Some years ago when we lived in Tennessee, a government official came to me for help with prostate cancer. His PSA test was 120 and he was not improving. We talked, and I gave him some suggestions for things he could do. He didn't tell his doctor that he was using alternatives. But when he went back to his doctor for more tests to keep up on his progress. Some weeks passed.

After awhile, he came in to see me with a story.

Doctors often give a discouraging prognosis. From their perspective, they're telling "the truth". But unfortunately, the medical perspective is severely limited, based only on what drugs and surgery can do. Doctors rarely know what the body is truly capable of through regenerative healing. A discouraging prognosis frequently prevents people from exploring other options. This video shows what's possible using only two aspects of regenerative healing. Diet and yoga.

We don't know what we're capable of until we try -- using the right methods. Sometimes we just need a different approach to create a totally different outcome. Never give up.

Toxic Chemicals in Your Home, and a Simple Solution

It's rather remarkable, and sad, that household products today are laden with toxic and potentially cancer causing chemicals. And worse, you don't know which ones are hiding the chemicals. You probably don't even understand the names of the chemicals or have any idea how toxic they are and how they affect you and your family.

Many chemicals allowed here in the U.S. are banned in other countries. Many products don't even list their ingredients. But they do have warnings:

Deaths of teenagers (aged 15 to 19), from prescription drugs increased 91% from 2000 to 2009, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). This is nearly double the previous number of fatal poisonings. According to the CDC, prescription drug abuse is to blame. Many prescription drugs make it to the black market. This accidental poisoning from prescription drugs is the leading cause of death among teenagers.

37% of all children who died in 2009, ages 1-19 are from this cause. Narcotic prescription pain killers alone kill 40 people per day.
