Margin

coverRestoring Emotional, Physical, Financial, And Time Reserves To Our Overloaded Lives
By Richard A. Swenson, M.D.

ISBN 08910-98887

Description:

AS A MEDICAL PRACTIONER, Dr. Richard Swenson sees a steady stream of exhausted, hurting people coming into his office. A majority of them are suffering form an uncontrolled societal epidemic: living without margin.

Margin is the space that once existed between ourselves and our limits. It's something held in reserve for contingencies or unanticipated situations.

As a society we've forgotten what margin is. In the push for progress, margin has been devoured. So we feel distressed in ill-defined ways. We are besieged by anxiety, stress, and fatigue. Our relationships suffer. We have unexplained aches and pains. The flood of daily events seems beyond our control. We're overloaded.

In Margin, Dr. Swenson provides a prescription against the danger of overloaded lives. Focusing on margin in four key areas - emotional energy, physical energy, time, and finances - he offers an overall picture of health that employs contentment, simplicity, balance, and rest.

If you yearn for relief from the pain and pressure of overload, take a lifelong dose of Margin under the care of a specialist. The benefits of good health, financial stability, fulfilling relationships, and availability for God's purposes will follow you all your days.

Quantum Healing: Exploring the Frontiers...

coverBy Deepak Chopra, M.D.
ISBN 0-553-34869-8

Description: Dr. Deepak Chopra, a respected New England endocrinologist, began his search for answers when he saw patients in his own practice who completely recovered after being given only a few months to live. In the mid-1980s he returned to his native India to explore Ayurveda, humanity's most ancient healing tradition. Now he has brought together the current research of Western medicine, neuroscience, and physics with the insights of Ayurvedic theory to show that the human body is controlled by a "network of intelligence" grounded in quantum reality. Not a superficial psychological state, this intelligence lies deep enough to change the basic patterns that design our physiology - with the potential to defeat caner, heart disease, and even aging itself. In this inspiring and pioneering work, Dr. Chopra offers us both a fascinating intellectual journey and a deeply moving chronicle of hope and healing.

"In a highly readable manner, Dr. Chopra shows the relevance and wisdom of a number of the concepts of Ayurveda to a modern systems/information theory of health and illness as exemplified by the rapidly developing field of psychoneuroimmunology."

Dr. Art Ulene's Complete Guide to Vitamins, Minerals & Herbs

coverBy Dr. Art Ulene
ISBN 1-5833-3004-6

Description:There's a new wave in nutrition - and it's going to change the way you think about vitamins, minerals, and herbs. But, how are we to know when supplementation is appropriate, which supplements to take, and in what amounts?

Dr. Art Ulene will provide the answers to these and other important questions in this book! According to new research, optimal doses of vitamins, minerals, and herbs can improve health and reduce chances of developing many diseases and disorders - regardless of one's age or health status. Until recently, vitamins and minerals were considered important primarily for avoiding deficiency-related medical disorders. Now Dr. Art Ulene shows new evidence that indicates higher levels of selected nutrients may actually slow or prevent the physical deterioration associated with aging - a process once considered inevitable. He also explains the supplements that may help prevent some of the most common chronic diseases and illnesses associated with aging - from heart disease and cancer to cataracts. In fact, he explains, some supplements may reduce heart attacks by 40 percent and cancer by 20 percent, while increasing lifespan up to six years. Others can protect against the risk of high blood pressure and reduce birth defects.
