Today, the number one ailment affecting Americans is back pain, which impacts more than 80 percent of the population. An additional 70 million adults also suffer from arthritis and joint inflammation. While traditional medicine treats these common aches and discomforts as mechanical problems to be cured by mechanical means, little to nothing is done to alleviate the stress at the root of the issues.Risa Sheppard and Dr. David Tannenbaum's Mindful Movement: Heal Your Back Pain with BAM Therapy is a book for those living with chronic musculoskeletal pain and related ailments. It offers essential information on the back, along with spiritual wisdom and Pilates movements for alleviating and healing back pain.

In this book, Risa and David present guidelines on how to incorporate spiritual mentalities and gentle exercise therapy for those who seek to heal their body naturally, without resorting to drugs or invasive surgeries. They believe that constricted minds create constricted bodies, and in turn, open minds create open, fluid, free-moving bodies.Mindful Movement helps readers do the following:Understand the connection between emotional stress and physical pain.Identify the source of pain.Alleviate pain from the body.Replace drug therapy with gentle healing techniques.Manage sanity in the face of stressful experiences.

Being crowned homecoming queen fast-tracked me to an identity crisis that catalyzed my disclosure of ten years of sexual abuse at the hands of my stepfather. I dropped out of high school for the first half of my senior year while the disclosure was incinerated in my notorious stepfather's career-climbing kiln. I am recovering my authentic self from the rubble of losses amassed over years of enduring entirely narcissistic parents.I felt shame and disgrace about the unsavory and scandalous parts of my life. As a result, I kept quiet and kept my words to myself. I had every reason to die in a self-destructive implosion. Instead, I wrote this book.Recovery is a gritty and ceaseless process that has no finish line. My mother always told me I was going to "need a lot of therapy." She also told me to "never have kids because it will be the worst thing you ever do." My mother was right about the therapy, but she was wrong about the kids.Life is riddled with conflict. Conflict motivates my writing and passion for conflict resolution. Twenty years of therapy at two to three times per week helped me construct a useful and productive life, and it has allowed me to hone my native genius: being a mother.I've given myself a self-accredited PhD in life with a master's in conflict resolution and personality disorders. My greatest hope is that you are entertained and inspired by my life story. The self-discovery that occurred during the creation of this book holds some shocking conclusions.Is it possible that being sexually abused was my saving grace? Is it possible that my alcoholism is not destructive? This book is not a how-to about recovery. It is about self-discovery and where I am in the sucky recovery process.

The sixty-six books of the Holy Scripture were written by many penmen, over a space of fifteen centuries, yet it is one book and has one voice speaking through all its pages. The Bible is the word of God. It's very different from the sacred books of non-Christian religions. In those writings, it is man speaking about God; in the holy scriptures, it is God speaking to man. Reading this book, Truth, will provide you with further insights into the word of God.

I am ashamed of my former firm Morgan Stanley for representing to me, my former colleagues, and their clients a security known as the Kemper Lumbermens surplus notes as a bond instrument highly rated for investment-grade fixed-income clients when, in fact, it was not a bond but a surplus note--a totally alternate security.As a former compliance comanager of seven EF Hutton offices in Florida and an NASD/FINRA industry arbitrator, I was the financial adviser at Morgan Stanley who would do my best to evaluate and investigate what happened in the surplus note.I don't have a clear understanding of the regulator's motives or why the Wall Street Journal would not follow up on the original article they wrote about me on May 24, 2008, which elicited my need to stay in and fight on for the past decade.CHECKMATE is supported by a separate internet domain site designed to expand the reader's experience.

As we grow and develop in life, things never turn out how we want or expect them to, regardless of how much money, family, or friends we have. We all suffer from childhood traumas in some shape, form, or fashion. We use hate, self-pity, and self-aid to suppress feelings in our mental state and emotions in our physical state. We use our free will to make decisions based off the desires of our heart, mind, and body but never our spirit and soul.Our earthly desires cause us to be blind to the permanent pain and damage because we are so consumed with the temporary pleasures that seem to fill our empty spirits and souls. We question God, our self-worth, and our purpose because in the moment of trials and tribulations, we feel alone and abandoned. I'm here to tell you that you are not alone and that God is working in your favor, regardless of the infliction of pain that you endure.It's always the things you can't see that do the most work in your life, be it negative or positive. In this book, you will read about my walk in life and the earthly desires I chose to fill me and how accepting Christ into my life mentally, physically, and emotionally changed the desires of my heart and opened my eyes to the hands that were always holding mine, every step of the way.

At first, I didn't want anyone to know that I was swindled out of my hard-earned money.
