A Calculus two exam at 7:30 a.m. is insane was my thought as I sat down to breakfast in the LSU Union hall. I looked up at one of the TVs just in time to see the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. My heart sank to my toes. I thought, as a truck driver in the Louisiana National Guard, active duty consisted of dealing with hurricanes and floods, not war. That is what the Army is for. I'm still in school. Perhaps my contract will be up in time. National Guard truck drivers are not war heroes. Little did I know that a phone call in the middle of a blind date would prove me so wrong. Now that an active-duty deployment to Iraq is in my future, my concern is, Will I be the same person when I come back? From the Journals I kept daily, this is a "e;Walk in My Boots"e;.

This book is not intended to be read like a novel but, as an inspiration, and encouragement on your journey towards a path of healing. And also, my hope is that, as you read through these pages, they will serve as a guide along your path to acquiring more balance on your journey towards a healthier you! You will also find why I've felt inspired for years to put in writing my answers to the questions people often ask me. After working in the Alternative Care World (as a massage therapist for a total of 16 years, in-which seven of those years includes working in an alternative care clinic), this is a work I feel needs to be out there for people who are looking for guidance concerning their health issues when their health care provider is not meeting up to their standards. For I am one of "e;those people"e; who happens to be very sensitive to the type of substances that are taken internally whether it is through "e;Holistic health care"e; or "e;Western Medicine"e; supplementation, and especially "e;holistic"e; supplementation in the form of IV's or injections, which I have been there and done that by having the opportunity to experience the "e;alternative care world,"e; first hand it is what forced me to figure it out about how an extra sensitive person such as myself was to Survive Lyme & West Nile! I also wrote this book for those individuals who are at wit's end (as I was) due to not knowing what direction to go next, and for those who haven't even heard about some of the alternative routes that are out there (other than the "e;big name"e; companies) due to not having the available necessary funding that is needed to support a clinic, and to make their voice heard through marketing strategies about their ideas and abilities to help ailing individuals in search of the best solutions concerning their medicinal needs. Then on the flip side many of these "e;gifted healers"e; prefer to work alone in their quiet little unique offices. I have added charts I find very helpful for helping others as well as Self-help Techniques and Protocols for Parasitic infections, SIBO (Sm. Intestinal Bacteria Overgrowth), Lyme and West Nile Disease, along with instructions of how to help relax the ileocecal valve and simple acupressure points that may help with Headaches, Migraines, Insomnia, and helping to acquire the "e;feeling of wellness taking place."e;I will also share with you my personal experience with acugraphs (measures the energies of the meridians), and Live and Dry blood (microscopy) results. You will also find information on my inspired Nerve Tissue Release Technique (NTRT) and contact information about classes that Dr. Troy Crane (chiropractor practitioner) in Burley, Idaho, (who has been one of my mentors since I have received my Massage Therapy Certification) and I will be offering to those of you who would like to learn a technique that may possibly help your loved ones as well as yourself, who suffer from Illnesses, Pain, Headaches, Migraines, Sciatica, and possibly even pinched nerve damage, and may also help to release those tender acupressure points, that correlates with the issues listed above, with the intentions of helping you bring your body into balance, allowing it to heal on a grander scale. May All Your Days Be Blessed with Love, Peace, Health, & AbundanceKathy Gaa LMT,CBCP (license Massage Therapist & certified Body Code practitioner) I am petitioning all Body-Workers who have these skills, and who are "e;Passionately Dedicated"e; in helping and learning "e;my format"e; to help battle against Lyme & West Nile, you may send your business contact information to me. I will add you to a business directory on my website for the people who are looking for a Therapist in their area that uses the modalities listed above.

How do you recover from losing your identifying dream? This is the true story of a life lived in the valley of trouble-loss, disappointment, and despair-and the door of hope leading to redemption.

The Last Step is a fast-moving, exciting archeological mystery thriller set among the Mayan ruins in Copan, Honduras, including the magnificent hieroglyphic stairway rediscovered by Harvard archeologists in the 1930s. The statues of five Mayan kings adorn the stairway, whose thousands of carved hieroglyphic stones recording the kings' reigns were dislodged by ancient earthquakes. Unable to decipher the stones, the archeologists reassembled them at random on the stairway's 64 steps. They also purloined and shipped one king's statue to the Harvard Peabody Essex Museum, where it remains today. Harvard graduate student Alexis Hoffman, who seeks to return the stolen statue to Copan and to decipher the stairway, teams with electronics whiz Ben Acebo to develop novel computer techniques to catalog, correctly reassemble and "e;read"e; the hieroglyphic stones, and to reconstitute worn stone carvings and drawings. She also convinces Ben, lawyer/amateur archeologist David Elliot, and a sculptor friend to create an exact copy of the stolen king statue. The four then embark on a hazardous journey to return the duplicate statue to Copan, reassemble the stairway's hieroglyphic stones, discover the location of vast treasures removed from the five kings' burial chambers under the stairway, and discern the true meaning of December 21, 2012 -- the end of 5000 years of Mayan history. According to Mayan lore, what happened then can be explained only by deciphering certain hieroglyphic stones correctly reassembled on the last and highest step of the reconstituted stairway. The team encounters international intrigue and bewildering clues found on Copan statues and ceramics, and in the four surviving Mayan books in Mexico City, Madrid, Paris and Dresden, Germany museums. They also endure sinister events at Harvard, a harrowing flight to a remote Honduran island, a dangerous trip through mountain roads and rivers, drug criminals, murderous witchdoctors, man-eating jaguars, snakes, missing stairway stones, and unknown saboteurs to return the statue, find the kings' relocated treasures, and decipher the cosmic meaning of the stairway's last step.

The Narrow Path is about forgiveness. It is easy to say that you forgive someone, but since it is almost impossible to forget when you are offended, "e;true"e; forgiveness is extremely difficult to release. Scripture says you should forgive someone who wronged you seventy times seven times. Jesus is not saying to forgive 490 times; he's talking about forgiving in the most extreme situations-for example, the 430 years of the Israelites' captivity in Egypt. The Narrow Path explores a situation when two men meet along a path (one is a murderer, the other the victim) in a place where time has no meaning. Jesus forgave even the people who crucified him (Luke 23:34), but we sometimes cannot forgive even the slightest wrong against us. We must remember that the path to heaven is very narrow, so if you have an unforgiving and bitter heart, you cannot receive the kingdom of heaven. Can you love your enemy enough to forgive him? Overcoming an unforgiving heart cannot be done without the Holy Spirit because he provides the fruit: love, peace, joy, patience, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, kindness, and self-control. The Narrow Path tells the story of a case of forgiving a difficult wrong and repenting and how God forgives us as well.

This book is about exploring the dimensionalities of who we are as we strive to communicate the deeper aspects of our being. Giving creative voice to "e;real-self expression"e; requires our establishing true communication with a deeper consciousness within us - a turning inward to capture and seize the thoughts, experiences, emotions, and myriad of memories that reside inside our mind - to push beyond the limitation of words and to stand in the spaces between what may seem to be inharmonious aspects of our self to find synchrony. This is the gift of our psychic symphony. The only question is one of what we will compose. Sherron Lewis and Shelley StokesThe authors, Shelley Stokes, Ph.D. and Sherron Lewis, LMFT, have been pursuing a conceptual, clinical and experiential exploration of the many dimensions and phenomena contained in the human struggles inherent in knowing, being, expressing and living as an expression of SELF that is more REAL and less a manifestation of distorting, inhibiting, fear inducing and submissiveness to accommodate to the perceived demands and expectations of external forces and emotionally important relationships. In this, their latest effort in this endeavor, they continue to employ a methodology that includes clinical theoretical formulations, neuropsychological findings, poetic and philosophical offerings, spiritual references, clinical therapeutic vignettes, and personal reflections. Throughout their writings, Lewis and Stokes, creatively share aspects of their own personal explorations and reflections on their journeys to greater self-authenticity and freedom of expressions of the self. In fact, it is through their use of personal self-disclosures, that they offer the reader a form of interpersonal experiential intimacy in teaching and encouraging the same in the reader's journey of self-discovering and expression, thus making accessible to the reader, especially the non-clinical professionals, a greater access to integrated knowing through concepts, emotions, reflections and experiences. Through this unique approach, the authors engage in a powerful means of communication by inviting the reader to personally engage in the demanding, complex, exciting, energizing and releasing effort to get beyond habitual ways of being in finding, creating and expressing that which has been waiting to be brought to greater fruition in REAL-SELF expression.
