Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about holistic strategies and techniques I discovered to keep me active and alert by reducing pain. It encourages you to focus on the things you can do and enjoy, such as playing and learning instruments, rather than what you cannot do. I developed a Continually Growing Big Plan which included: healthy living and healthy eating; home treatments; physical and mental exercises; complementary medicine and other alternative treatments such as yoga, tai-chi, meditation, Positive Mental Attitude (PMA), relaxation techniques, pacing, activating endorphins and many more. Attitude and self-awareness impact on how we deal with obstacles and pain; it is a twofold battle: physical and mental. Included are pointers on: -PMA - Is the practice of continually searching to improve the current situation. -Optimism - A willingness to make an effort; readiness to do something. -Acceptance - Acknowledging your current situation, which may change. -Resilience - Bouncing back from adversity and never giving up. -Gratitude - Appreciate the good things in life, focussing only on positives. -Determination - Being purposeful, tenacious and resolute. -Open mindedness – Being receptive to new ideas. -Lateral thinking – Viewing problems from a new and unusual perspective. -Creativity – Being imaginative to create or change your approach. -Investigative mind – Be willing to learn more about every aspect of your condition and what can be done to improve it. -Decisiveness – Developing the ability to make decisions with confidence. -Organised/Discipline mind – Developing the ability to reflect and control feelings and impulses. This attitude refers to a person's self-management skills. -Tolerance – Developing the capacity to endure pain by focussing on the above attitudes. -Self-confidence – Developing all of the above will boost self-confidence and regain trust on your own abilities, qualities, decision making and judgement. It is my greatest wish that this book inspires and empower readers to seek their own personal positive outcomes. The key is: Never give up!

Book Synopsis Back Sense by : Dr. Ronald D. Siegel
Download or read book Back Sense written by Dr. Ronald D. Siegel and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2002-04-09 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On occasion nearly everyone experiences short-term back pain from sore or strained muscles. But for many who come to treat their back gingerly because they fear further "injury," a cycle of worry and inactivity results; this aggravates existing muscle tightness and leads them to think of themselves as having a "bad back." Even worse is the understandable but usually counterproductive assumption that back pain is caused by "abnormalities"–bulging disks, a damaged spine, and so on. However, these abnormalities are frequently found in those who have absolutely no pain whatsoever. In reality, most backs are strong and resilient, built to support our bodies for a lifetime; truly "bad backs" are rare. Drawing on their work with patients and studies from major scientific journals and corporations, the authors of Back Sense–all three are former chronic back pain sufferers themselves–developed a revolutionary self-treatment approach targeting the true causes of chronic back pain. It is based on conclusive evidence proving that stress and inactivity are usually the prime offenders, and it allows patients to avoid the restrictions and expense of most other treatments. After showing readers how to rule out the possibility that a rare medical condition is the source of their problem, Back Sense clearly and convincingly explains the actual factors behind chronic back pain and systematically leads readers toward recapturing a life free of back pain.

This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drug overdose, driven largely by overdose related to the use of opioids, is now the leading cause of unintentional injury death in the United States. The ongoing opioid crisis lies at the intersection of two public health challenges: reducing the burden of suffering from pain and containing the rising toll of the harms that can arise from the use of opioid medications. Chronic pain and opioid use disorder both represent complex human conditions affecting millions of Americans and causing untold disability and loss of function. In the context of the growing opioid problem, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) launched an Opioids Action Plan in early 2016. As part of this plan, the FDA asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to convene a committee to update the state of the science on pain research, care, and education and to identify actions the FDA and others can take to respond to the opioid epidemic, with a particular focus on informing FDA's development of a formal method for incorporating individual and societal considerations into its risk-benefit framework for opioid approval and monitoring.
