This Book Will Save Your Life -...

Dr. Russell Surasky

Renowned neurologist Dr. Russell Surasky reveals a precise and breakthrough medical treatment for opioid addiction.
The book you’re holding in your hands contains the answers that can save your life, the life of a loved one, or—if you’re a doctor—the life of your patient.
In the time it takes you to read this paragraph, another person will have died from opioid addiction. The opioid epidemic is taking the lives of nearly two hundred Americans each day. Everyone is now just one degree of separation from the deadly scourge of opioid addiction—either you are suffering or someone close to you is. Fentanyl, the deadliest of all opioids, has now flooded into every town in America. Recent discoveries in the field of neuroscience have proven that addiction is a neurological brain disease, not a psychological problem or a moral failure. It is a treatable, chronic medical illness that involves complex interactions between genetics, exposure to addictive substances, and ultimately, the hijacking of specific brain circuitry. With this new information, scientists have created breakthrough medical treatments that can help heal the brain from addiction—and finally unchain those suffering from this deadly affliction.
In This Book Will Save Your Life, Dr. Russell Surasky clearly explains these precise new life-saving treatments and how you or your loved one can access them immediately. Active opioid addiction is a medical emergency that—without treatment—is virtually always fatal. The information in this book could save your life and the lives of those you love, forever.
“This is a pointed and urgent challenge not just for those suffering addiction, but for all of us who care about the dignity of the human person and sacredness of human life. Sure, there’s a lot of bad news about addiction, but there’s a lot of good news as well. My friend Dr. Russell Surasky gives us hope for a culture of recovery.”—Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan, Archbishop of New York

Sleep better with hypnosis

Dr. Nidal Moughrabi, Bobby Cole,...

Who is this hypnosis for:- If you have difficulty falling asleep- or you wake up frequently over the night- or your sleep is simply not restful enough- or you can sleep only with medication and would like a more natural solution… this hypnosis will help.This hypnosis is an easy, gentle way to prepare for falling asleep. At the same time, it will help you experience a deep, restful, regenerating sleep.How it works:So many of us are affected these days by sleeping troubles.Unfortunately, this is bound to be: our world is fast, overloaded with information and constantly stimulated by screens. Thus, our brains are overly activated and less acquainted with the state of non-activity.This "monkey mind" is what keeps us away from a good sleep. Over the night, our brains keep on being busy solving problems. Moreover, our bodies cannot have a good, regenerative rest either – did you notice how an agitated mind matches and agitated body?Fortunately, methods based on hypnosis are very effective.While in themselves, they are very relaxing (4 time stronger than sleep), when specific suggestions for taking a break from thoughts and slipping into a profound, regenerative sleep are added, our mind and body finally gets the break it needs.This is what this 28 min hypnosis does.Play it after you have already laid down in bed and found a comfortable position so that you can easily fall asleep during it or after it ends.My recommendation is to use it for 3 days in a row and feel if it works for you. If it does, continue. The more you do it, the easier it will become for you to relax and fall asleep.Disclaimer:The products sold here do not replace medical or psychological therapy. Please take your time when listening to the audio downloads and stop doing anything else that might distract you, e.g., don't use them while working or driving a car.ENJOY!Yours Dr. Nidal MoughrabiLife-Coach, MDHypnotherapy, NLP and Meditation Training
