The mind is like the stomach: Anything not digested may come back and repeat on you. Much like this afternoon’s egg salad, you can still taste it, at least until it’s satisfactorily digested. Food in the stomach can only stay undigested for eight to ten hours, though, whereas the mind can hold onto unprocessed material forever. You are in no danger of re-experiencing the piping hot pepperoni pizza that you devoured in third grade, but, if that same pizza was hurled in your face by the class bully, you might still be experiencing that event tonight, tomorrow, maybe for the rest of your life.If any such traumas are repeating on you, Dr. Chris Cortman has good news. It’s treatable (curable) immediately. He has used the guided imagery technique successfully after rape, incest, abduction, fatal car accidents, natural disasters like hurricanes, and even attempted cult sacrifice. Dr. Cortman has used guided imagery to help patients say goodbye to suicided family members, abandoning fathers, smoking cessation, pornography consumption, and adult children who died by drug overdose. This book will feature the origins of guided imagery, the legendary founder of Gestalt therapy, Fritz Perls. The Guided Imagery Cure will also present case studies of all kinds and share how one guided imagery session transformed these patients’ lives and alleviated their suffering. This technique can help you too: let Dr. Cortman show you how in The Guided Imagery Cure.

Got endometriosis? You should have a baby!Painful post-birth prolapse? Well, you had a baby. Let down by doctors? Try our wellness candle!Episiotomy scar? Why not trim your labia too?It's a stitch-up. And we demand better. As Emma was being sewn up following the birth of her second child, the midwife paused, looked up and said the worst thing anyone has ever said to her: 'Your vagina's fallen out.'After receiving a vague diagnosis of 'prolapse', she spent the next two years being shunted between specialists. The solutions on offer ranged from kegels to hysterectomy and even labia trimming. Some doctors simply shrugged and said there was nothing they could do. Women around her spoke of similar experiences: mothers told that pain was the price of parenthood; trans women blamed for 'wanting a vagina in the first place'; Black women disbelieved and dismissed; intersex people lied to by their doctors. The mesh scandal that injured thousands. The 'love doctor' who performed nonconsensual vaginal surgeries. Over and over again, Emma heard stories of women in pain, bleeding, dying, failed by the professionals who were supposed to help them. Medical misogyny kills, and leaves many more in agony, unable to live full lives. The Stitch-Up tells their stories, and calls for better research, healthcare options, language and treatment, arguing that being female should never be a death sentence.
