From the authors of the bestselling ChiRunning comes a revolutionary program that blends the health benefits of walking with the core principles of T'ai Chi to deliver maximum physical, mental, and spiritual fitness.

The low-impact health benefits of walking have made it one of the most popular forms of daily exercise. Yet few people experience all the benefits that walking can offer.

In ChiWalking, Danny and Katherine Dreyer, well-known walking and running coaches, teach the walking technique they created that transforms walking from a mundane means of locomotion into an intensely rewarding practice that enhances mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Similar to Pilates, yoga, and T'ai Chi, ChiWalking emphasizes body alignment and mindfulness while strengthening the core muscles of the body.

The five mindful steps of the ChiWalking program will get anyone, regardless of age or athletic ability, into great shape from head to toe, inside and out.

1. Get aligned. Develop great posture and better balance.

2. Engage your core. Make back and knee pain disappear.

3. Create balance. Walk faster, farther, and with less effort.

4. Make a choice. Choose from a menu of twelve great walks such as the Cardio Walk, the Energizing Walk, or the Walking Meditation, to keep your exercise program fresh.

5. Move forward. Make walking any distance a mindful, enjoyable experience, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned walker.

The publication of Dr. Koch's book marks the 100th anniversary of Chiropractic. This anniversary does not commemorate the invention of a new treatment for disease or pain. Rather, it celebrates the discovery of a previously undiscovered principal of life which governs the fine line between health and disease. This timely and significant book explores that life principal.

Dr. Goldenberg's book offers hope for the million Americans who suffer from chronic illnesses like fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. It can help both patients and health professionals. It has a refreshingly sympathetic point of view. "For those of us with chronic illness, the first step to feeling better is to let go of our need for cause; our need to blame someone or something for our illness."

A revolutionary program that can indefinitely postpone the need for dialysis

If you've been diagnosed with kidney failure, this book could save your life. If you suffer from diabetes, hypertension, obesity, or any of a host of conditions that put you at risk for kidney disease, you owe it to yourself to read what is in this book. If you are among the 60,000 North Americans who go on dialysis each year, the information in this book could substantially improve your quality of life.

In Coping with Kidney Disease, a leading expert tells you, in plain English, what you need to know to:
* Understand kidney failure
* Recognize early warning signs of kidney failure
* Get a proper diagnosis
* Talk with your doctors about it
* Confidently evaluate treatment options
* Take charge of your treatment
* Delay dialysis or even avoid the need for it altogether


The centerpiece of Coping with Kidney Disease is Dr. Walser's revolutionary 12-step program for avoiding dialysis. Based on treatments he has pioneered with his own patients at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, the program calls for a supplemented low-protein diet supported by treatments to control blood pressure and correct high cholesterol. So effective has this breakthrough strategy proven to be that in many patients it actually worked to slow or arrest the progression of kidney failure to the end stage.

Knowledge is power. Coping with Kidney Disease empowers you with what you need to take charge of kidney disease.

Distills the basic principles used by Native American healers to create miracles.

- Explores the power of miracles in both traditional Native American healing and modern scientific medicine.

- Cites numerous cases in which people whose conditions were deemed hopeless were miraculously healed.

- Enables readers to start their own healing journey through the exploration of purpose, meaning, and acceptance.

- By the author of Coyote Medicine.

Native American healers expect miracles and prepare in all possible ways for them to occur. In modern medicine, miraculous recoveries are discarded from studies as anomalous cases that will taint the otherwise orderly results. Yet this small group of miracle patients has much to teach us about healing and survival.

Coyote Healing distills the common elements in miracle cures to help people start their own healing journey. Looking at 100 cases of individuals who experienced miracle cures, Dr. Mehl-Madrona found the same preconditions that Native American healers know are necessary in order for miracles to occur. The author reveals what he learned from both his own practice and the interviews he conducted with survivors about the common features of their path back to wellness. Survivors found purpose and meaning in their life-threatening illness; peaceful acceptance was key to their healing. Coyote Healing also tells of another kind of miracle--finding faith, hope, and serenity even when a cure seems impossible.

Engage the chakras as a road map for self-discovery, harness the power of crystals, and practice self-love through erotic spirituality with Crystal Healing and Sacred Pleasure.

Whether you're new to crystals or experienced with crystal healing, Crystal Healing and Sacred Pleasure offers the essential information and techniques you need to get your energy flowing freely again.

The flow of energy through our chakras (the energy centers of our bodies) is essential to our fundamental well-being and our ability to experience our lives fully. When chakras get blocked, the natural flow of energy is hindered, and we experience disconnection from our physical bodies. Crystal healing can release blockages and bring necessary attention to our whole being, while helping to heal physical or emotional trauma.

Crystals have been used for centuries as a way to release and harmonize energy. Each crystal has its own unique qualities that are suited to specific kinds of blockages. When used properly, crystals can have a powerful and positive effect on our lives.

This book features:

A clear introduction to the body's chakra system

Guidance for determining if a chakra is blocked

Essential information on crystals and how they work

Specific techniques and practices for using crystals to embrace self-love and achieve greater intimacy and pleasure

A comprehensive chart linking crystals to their chakras; zodiac elements; color energies; and physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits

An annotated reading list of books, blogs, and websites to support you as you continue on the path of crystal healing

Embrace the healing power of crystals and open yourself to greater well-being, intimacy, and sensual pleasure.

In Doctor, What Should I Eat?, Isadore Rosenfeld, M.D., one of America's most trusted doctors, gives you specific food recommendations for the conditions in which the role of diet has been clearly and scientifically established. Dr. Rosenfeld discusses how each disorder develops, what you should or should not eat to help your recovery or prevent a recurrence, and which medications will work best with your food prescription. Working with an experienced registered dietitian, he offers dozens of menus and tables to help put his nutrition prescriptions into action. Dr. Rosenfeld dispels many myths and misconceptions about food and illness and helps readers learn how to spot nutritional quacks. He demystifies the complexities typical of much nutritional advice (who wants to plan dinner with a calculator?) and offers straightforward, easy-to-follow advice. He combines his review of thousands of scientific studies with decades of experience from his own clinical practice, giving readers a full spectrum of nutritional solutions, all of which have been vetted by experts in the field. Too many traditional doctors don't pay enough attention to the importance of your diet in treating illness; too many holistic practitioners decry the use of medications. Proper medical treatment should never be a matter of either/or; it should include both sound nutritional advice and recommendations for the most effective medications - the vital combination you'll find in Doctor, What Should I Eat?
