Abstract

This CD guides the listener to practice breath work along with

autogenics, statements used repeatedly to induce a state of deep

relaxation. Listeners are encouraged to remember a time and place

in which they experienced strength and a strong centre (reframed

as 'inner healers'). The music of Pachelbel's Canon accompanies

the guided imagery of a tree. Autogenic phrases emphasize growing

in confidence and strength 'every day in every way'. The closing

image is that of energy rising through the body -- as sap through the

trunk of a tree. This helps to create a full circle of relaxation.

Abstract

"Diagnosketch is a visual aid to explain medical diagnoses to patients at the bedside. It uses simplified images to illustrate complicated anatomy and concepts. The title, 'Diagnosketch,' combines the term 'diagnosis,' with the term, 'sketch,' paralleling the way the book combines a medical diagnosis with a simplified sketch. It includes common pathologies seen in an acute care setting, especially ones that are easier to explain with pictures"-- Provided by publisher

Abstract

"As a young queer woman, Catherine Guthrie worked hard to feel at home in her body. However, after years writing about women's health and breast cancer, Guthrie is thrust into the role of the patient after a devastating diagnosis at age thirty-eight. At least, she thinks, I know what I'm up against. She is wrong ... Filled with candor, vulnerability, and resilience, Guthrie upends the "pink ribbon" narrative and offers a unique perspective on womanhood, what it means to be "whole," and the importance of women advocating for their desires. This book is the story of how she found the strength to forge an unconventional path - one of listening to her body - that she'd been on all along." - Cover

Abstract

This CD offers progressive relaxation through guided imagery with

the aid of two musical pieces called "Satie" and "Gratitude".

Soothing music underlies the sound of gentle ocean surf as the

listener experiences waves of relaxation wash over the body. The

listener is reminded that one's body knows how to sleep and that

sleep will be restful and dreams helpful. Later in the CD the listener

hears sounds of bird song, cello and harp as he/she is guided

through progressive relaxation from head to toe. The image of a

beautiful rose moves the listener to a calm still place. The words of

the metta meditation invoke a universal wish for peace and wellbeing.
