Sinossi

                   The Medical Trauma Recovery Workbook
 
 A Somatic CBT Approach to Healing Healthcare PTSD from Surgery, Medical Procedures, and Hospital Trauma
 
Medical trauma affects millions of patients and healthcare workers, yet few resources address the unique psychological wounds that healthcare experiences can create. This comprehensive workbook combines evidence-based somatic therapy techniques with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help survivors heal from surgical complications, medical gaslighting, hospital anxiety, and healthcare PTSD.
 
Drawing from trauma-informed care principles, this practical guide offers step-by-step exercises for reconnecting with your body safely after overwhelming medical experiences. Learn to break free from the fear-avoidance cycle that keeps many trauma survivors from accessing necessary healthcare, while developing tools to transform your relationship with medical environments from terror to empowerment.
 
Inside this medical trauma recovery workbook, you'll discover:
 
Somatic techniques specifically adapted for medical trauma survivors
 
CBT strategies to challenge catastrophic health thoughts and medical anxiety
 
Pendulation exercises designed to regulate your nervous system during medical encounters
 
Pre-surgery preparation protocols that reduce retraumatization risk
 
Communication scripts for advocating with healthcare providers
 
Exposure therapy frameworks for gradually approaching avoided medical care
 
Post-treatment integration practices to process medical experiences positively
 
Long-term health empowerment strategies for sustainable recovery
 
Each chapter includes practical worksheets, self-assessment tools, and real-world case examples that illustrate healing principles in action. From emergency room trauma to chronic illness adjustment, this workbook addresses the full spectrum of medical trauma experiences while respecting the complexity of healthcare relationships.
 
Perfect for:
 
Surgical trauma survivors seeking body-based healing approaches
 
Patients struggling with medical anxiety and healthcare avoidance
 
Healthcare workers experiencing vicarious trauma or medical gaslighting
 
Trauma therapists working with medically traumatized clients
 
Anyone seeking to transform their relationship with medical care
 
This workbook acknowledges that medical trauma recovery requires more than positive thinking - it demands practical tools that work with your nervous system's protective responses while building genuine resilience. By integrating somatic awareness with cognitive restructuring, you can heal from past medical experiences while developing the confidence to engage with future healthcare needs from a place of strength rather than survival.
 
Stop letting medical trauma control your health decisions. Start your journey toward medical empowerment with evidence-based tools designed specifically for healthcare-related psychological injuries.

Strategic Heart Failure - The...

MD Marc Silver

Written by one of the country's leading experts on Heart Failure, this completely new book provides a personalized approach, information and advice, guiding you and your family towards getting optimal heart failure care. Heart failure still affects over 6 million Americans, fill our hospitals and consumes enormous healthcare resources in the US and worldwide. Much of the impact of heart failure is lack of process and coordination of care with patients firmly inserted as team members. 
Dr. Silver says, "Strategic Heart Failure is a distillation of how my team and I helped patients and improved their outcomes for almost 4 decades. I want to share this approach directly with patients; they can help lead their healthcare, understand how decisions are made and improve the entire process of heart failure care." 
Understanding of a few fundamentals of heart failure care, especially the metrics and language that guideline directed care is crafted from, patients and families can not only join their care team but become the CEO! This Strategic approach moves people with heart failure from patients to partners within a caring, coordinated and engaged teams. 
Four prior editions of his books, Success with Heart Failure, elevated the understanding of the heart failure syndrome among thousands worldwide. His motivation for Strategic Heart Failure was his realization that his work on clinical trials, research, training other men and women professionals, serving on national guideline committees, being an Editor- in-Chief of a heart failure journal and even being one of the first Board Certified Fellows in Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant was not enough. Even having one of the finest and most dedicated teams was not enough. It is critical for: 
The patient to be involved 
The patient to be the team leader 
The patient to speak the "Heart Failure" language and understand the rationale and process for every life impacting decision.<

Bizarre Laws of the UK for Kids

Monty Lord

‘They say that ignorance of the law is no defence. So thank goodness for Monty’s book. I had no idea I was running so many risks in terms of how I have been leading my life! Lots of fun to be had here.’ - Sir. Peter Wanless, CB – Chief Executive, NSPCC 
Have you ever heard a bizarre law and thought, that can’t possibly be true? Is it genuine? Was it ever in existence or just an urban myth that became so embellished over time? There are surprisingly, a great many laws still in existence on the statute books today, that would make your jaw drop. Whilst bizarre as these laws may now seem to us, it begs the question, are we in fact, unknowingly breaking these laws on a regular basis? 
For example…Is it illegal to own a pet whale but not a tiger?Is it illegal to cause a nuclear explosion?Were mince pies once illegal?Was Dr. Frankenstein ever real?Why was cricket against the law?Why does The King hold an MP prisoner? 
…all these questions and more will be answered in this latest book by Monty Lord. 
This book is a highly entertaining read for anyone who enjoys reading about the more bizarre applications of UK law throughout the centuries along with some rather macabre consequences along the way.

Speech Matters - On Lying...

Seana Valentine Shiffrin

To understand one another as individuals and to fulfill the moral duties that require such understanding, we must communicate with each other. We must also maintain protected channels that render reliable communication possible, a demand that, Seana Shiffrin argues, yields a prohibition against lying and requires protection for free speech. This book makes a distinctive philosophical argument for the wrong of the lie and provides an original account of its difference from the wrong of deception.Drawing on legal as well as philosophical arguments, the book defends a series of notable claims—that you may not lie about everything to the "murderer at the door," that you have reasons to keep promises offered under duress, that lies are not protected by free speech, that police subvert their mission when they lie to suspects, and that scholars undermine their goals when they lie to research subjects.Many philosophers start to craft moral exceptions to demands for sincerity and fidelity when they confront wrongdoers, the pressures of non-ideal circumstances, or the achievement of morally substantial ends. But Shiffrin consistently resists this sort of exceptionalism, arguing that maintaining a strong basis for trust and reliable communication through practices of sincerity, fidelity, and respecting free speech is an essential aspect of ensuring the conditions for moral progress, including our rehabilitation of and moral reconciliation with wrongdoers.
