    This is the first of a proposed series of books that are designed to reveal information that could lead to freedom from suffering and all forms of sickness. It is a practical guide to managing your own health from both a spiritual and physical point of view. It is a distillation of knowledge derived from a lifetime dedication to healing using harmless natural means and remedies. It is aimed at fulfilling a great need for more knowledge of what disease really is, its source and how to overcome it and prevent its manifestation.This is an outline of my experience of a process of healing that is still taking place as I write this Introduction. I wish to share my experience regarding the cause and remedy of sickness, hoping that it will shed some light on the subject of healing and bring hope to those in need. Healing has become a controversial subject, since there are various belief systems and self-promoting vested interests. Why waste your efforts on meaningless arguments that deplete your vitality and lead to nowhere but confusion? True healing requires a willingness to change the mind; deluded minds are not so easily changed. It is the mind that decides whether a given "remedy" will work or not. The mind makes all decisions that are responsible for the body's condition; an open clear mind is a great asset!

    Plantation ManSet in the southern US state of Louisiana, Australian writer Hartley Henderson's novel, Plantation Man, provides a sensitive account of how a catastrophic event such as a major hurricane can result in the lives of complete strangers being impacted and intertwined. A moving insight is provided of how Jack Lansell, a surgeon from New York, finds himself for a few weeks in New Orleans assisting in dealing with medical trauma in the wake of the hurricane. How did he come to rescue a black man from destitution, own a plantation, go on to discover love, and a new life in the deep south? As the storyline progresses, colorful scenes are portrayed in a variety of locations including in cafes and onboard a Mississippi paddle steamer, often to the strains of jazz and blues music featuring the lovely Salina. And the reader is taken on memorable side trips - to Paris, and to Darwin in Australia. The themes running through the novel include the importance of racial equality, personal development opportunities, generosity of spirit, and the ability to sympathize. Jack and Salina become driving forces in their local community, providing opportunities for the development of those around them. The day-to-day operation of a working plantation is realistically presented together with how the business is developed and diversified. Throughout the revealing narrative and dialogue, care, kindness, love and laughter are often present, while at other times challenging events such as crime and death are confronted and dealt with. How the central characters of Jack, Salina and Sam are gradually developed as the storyline proceeds is a feature and strength of the novel. Personality traits of individual characters are progressively revealed against a wide variety of fascinating backdrops. Brendon Lefont, for example, becomes a key character as he matures from being a spoilt irresponsible university student to a construction company director. This is a story about the importance of ambition, drive, fairness, loyalty, love and, above all, consciously helping others to thrive along the way.

    Do you know someone who is sick, struggling with mental illness and trying to find a way through the maze...?It's easy to look outwards for a recipe on how to live. And that's something we all fall victim to.For David, he was his own worst enemy and that path he decided to pave took him to insane heights and soul-crushing lows. In this autobiography, he decides to share it all and trace his missteps in order to find his own truth.In his words, 'this isn't the kind of thing you read during a casual shit in the toilet.' Innocence, drugs, mania, depression, and philosophies relevant to him at the time; he opens the book to himself and hopes the reflection staring back at him is also one that resonates with the reader.We're all one and the same, whether you decide to button up your "person suit", or walk out the door chest bare, sharing is something we can all benefit from. Patient Doctor Privilege delivers a unique insight from a mental illness survivors perspective. The mental health system is laid bare.Being the subject matter and writer, David takes a no-holds-bar approach to decipher his past. From being a teenager fed up with the lack of guidance from the adults in his life, to an angry 20-year-old that thinks he knows everything and ultimately a man who had to put the pieces back together after being committed to several psych wards on a number of occasions. He never saw the moment on the end of his bed thinking about the nature of the world resulting in him losing touch with reality. But it was the moment he broke through the pressures in the west: to be better; to work harder, and ultimately chase your dreams. That he realised nothing meant anything. The only purpose in life was to laugh when something was funny, cry when something was sad, move when the wind blew, eat when you were hungry and enjoy ever-fleeting moments. However, being a disciplined, calculated, accomplished engineer, this new paradigm didn't fit in with the persona he had spent a like time creating. On multiple occasions, these two conflicting worlds clashed and opened up opportunities for growth and self-discovery. But be prepared. While talking about his underlying issues has become second nature for him, and he has been hospital free for several years, his autobiography is confronting, confusing and potentially eye-opening. Unlike the hero he thought he was at a young age, he closes with identifying with the coward within and admitting that just because he couldn't see a future, it didn't mean one wasn't awaiting him around the corner. Similarly, to that which is discussed behind closed doors, he opens with inviting you to his 'Patient Doctor Privilege'. He contests such a privilege needs to be dissolved for the collective benefit and admits despite the necessity to disconnect at times, that each of us, no matter how fucked up we are or even if we've hurt someone, we need to talk about it with one another.

    DinosOz Adventures Book 1 The Tunnel. Join best friends, Simone and James as they discover the exciting world of Australian dinosaurs.Enter the incredible world of Australian dinosaursJames and Simone gasped, and then both held their hands over their mouths at the same time. There were half a dozen nests, all with eggs in them. The nests were on a ledge outcropping on the side of the hill. They were actually only about halfway down the hill before they came to a stop on this ledge. These eggs had not hatched yet, and the parents were sure to be nearby. Just as she had this thought, as she stood behind a rock, Simone saw a large raptor-like dinosaur head rising up to stare straight at them. She felt like it was staring straight at her, right through her! In the back of her mind, a little voice told her these were Australovenators, the same type of dinosaur as Mondo. This adult was staring at her hungrily and did not look happy at the intruders in her nesting area. It sniffed the air a few times.James slowly took hold of the back of Simone's arm to pull her gently backwards, and away from the eggs. All thought of being quiet and stealthy vanished in an instant when the Australovenator in front of them let out an angry, bellowing roar! Simone jumped in the air from fright! Without a word between the two friends, they both turned and started running as fast as their legs would carry them. They had not gone all the way to the bottom after all. They were running along a ledge along the side of the hill they had just slid down. It was not fast enough. Simone chanced a look over her shoulder and she saw the huge animal closing the distance with every step! They were not going to make it. Simone's mind took this moment to remind her of something she had heard long ago, from her uncle who was a hunter. "When a bear is chasing you, you don't have to outrun the bear. You just have to outrun the guy next to you." Not helpful, she thought, as she was trailing James, and would surely be the first one eaten, seconds from now. As they ran, Simone started to hear a rumbling sound, coming from above. At first, she thought it was just the thundering footsteps of the angry parent, at least Simone thought it was a mother, but that would have to wait for later to think more about that. If there was a later. DinosOz Adventures Book 1 The Tunnel...continuesThe rumbling sound was getting louder and felt like it was coming from above her, not behind her, so she quickly glanced up. Just as she was thinking her day couldn't get any worse, she saw a small landslide had been started by their earlier slide down the hill and was just now gathering speed and debris as it came hurtling down the hill. Simone was not quite sure what would kill her first, the angry predator, or the angry mountain. So, she just kept running. She saw James had looked back a couple of times, probably to make sure she was still following. She knew he had seen the mudslide heading their way as well. With no other options, they kept running. Simone could practically feel the hot smelly breath of the Australovenator on her neck, at the same time she could feel the first pebbles and stones hitting her. The dinosaur was huge and very fast, and Simone knew this was the end. It must have been two metres high and about six meters long. It was running on two powerful legs and was showing its short arms were armed with incredible sharp claws and the half-open mouth was showing multiple scary sharp teeth. She closed her eyes but kept running. She did not want to see what was about to happen, as she imagined the dinosaur's teeth closing in over her head and its claws digging in her skin.Enjoy your DinosOz Adventures Book 1, The Tunnel

  • - A Search For Identity
    av Helen Wolfers
    257,-

    The decision to publish this book was partly inspired by a letter from Sigmund Freud, in which he stated: "There were other considerations (apart from anti-Semitism), which made the attractiveness of Judaism and Jews, irresistible - many obscure forces of emotions, all the more powerful the less they were to be defined in words." Elsewhere Freud went on to say that although he was unable to define these 'obscure inner forces' he was sure that the day would come when they would be identified.'Growing Up Jewish' attempts to delineate and explain at least some of these obscure inner forces. The book begins, in Sydney, Australia with the authors earliest experiences relevant to the development of Jewish identity. It then proceeds to trace this development from her experiences in 3 other countries while working for the United Nations in the field of population control. After retiring in Jerusalem, Israel, the author focuses on the consequences for Jewish identity of the re-establishment of a Jewish national homeland. In conclusion, drawing on the experiences described in the book she proposes a theoretical explanation of this Jewishness which, defying all odds, has survived millennia of homelessness, centuries outside the ghetto walls, and now still persists even outside its own religion.
