How to Inspire Yourself and Others - Scars and All

Grab the tissues. The Jane Handly Childhood Story is going to have you sobbing with happiness and standing taller for the experience.

One of the key points in 

is that 

"The alternative to coping is worse." 

It means that if you have a medical, mental health or disability situation, you have lots of unpleasant, tedious and tiring work to do. 

If you don't do your work, you will suffer more than you do now. That additional suffering, which can possibly take you very backwards in unanticipated ways, is much worse than the discomforts facing you now.

It pays to focus on what can be done. It pays to focus on the uplifting things you can do in life.

I salute Jane Handly's mom, who cherished her child's soul - not her superficial appearance.

Some of the most wonderful people in the world are not going to win beauty contests. Their souls ennoble us let alone those people themselves.

You have struggles to master? 

So do superficial people. 

But they hardly know it.

Get on with your life. Grab the gusto. Live to ennoble your soul, perhaps those of other people.

Humor heals in many ways. Some of us feel so tense in the middle of our medical dramas, that we need to remember: Medical professionals are human, too. They see their own foibles.

The EZ Shmeezy Way to Know More about the Medication You Take

7 Elul, 5773

From time to time I share URLs, aka websites, for empowering you to learn more about your health. 

I sympathize with you if you do not know why you take some sort of medication or feel reluctant to ask medical professionals about it. 

It's frightening to take medication and to wonder what it does for you, what the unplanned ramifications (consequences) of taking the medication might be and what else you need to know.

Here's an FYI on the citrus fruits with medication issue Beware of Dangerous Medication Interactions with Citrus Fruits!

Educate yourself at these sites and take notes. Memories tend to be faulty at inconvenient times.

drugs.com

Drugs are one thing. 

How about improving your sense of resolve? 

What about resolving your troubling spiritual issues about your illness - or someone else's? 

Can you or they afford the treatments, transportation or medical appliances you need?

Solutions exist! Many of them are in the E-book or print edition of EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge.

Whew! Last week's high heat and humidity left me wilted as I ran to/from bus stops, school and home each day. At home I cared for dogs while local friends were on vacation and tried to keep up with phone messages. 

I also spent significant time with friends visiting from abroad. 

I conserved energy by not blogging though I stored away some health news you need to know! It's good for your skin.

Remember when I promised to clue you in to a way of healing psoriasis? I've checked and rechecked facts until I felt confident that this stuff WORKS!

Check out HealthrightUSA.

The program offers scholarships.

Check out the Healthright stuff 
if you suffer from 
eczema, arthritis or psoriasis.

If you live in Israel the treatments

Here's some fun news about doctors doing what natural healers have known for ages: They're using honey to heal skin wounds - and it even kills superbugs!  

Healing the skin is directly related to excellent nutrition inside your body, too. 

That means sticking to a sensible, 
nutritional diet.

Need to work on your sense of commitment about that? Read

OK, now I'm going to sit back and catch my breath a bit.

How to Lose the Pain, Not Your Life, 1-2-3!

Bad news in the pain-killing industry: Painkillers Kill More Americans than Heroin and Cocaine Combined! 

I doubt that things are much better around the world in other industrialized areas.

I've conquered pain with 

1. Laughter, 

2. Dr. John Sarno's book, 

3. EFT 

and other non-chemical methods. 

So have other people. I highly recommend that you try any and all of those methods, to protect your very life.

A Health-promoting Day in Many Ways!

I was at an event in Jerusalem today that led to several gratifying surprises.

Called The Event, it was for helping immigrants adjust to employment and other aspects of life in Israel.

It was crowded! I struggled to keep my balance (and sometimes failed) as people pushed against me between the aisles of multiple displays.

But here's the happiness factor of it all:

I met zillions of people whom I know. New acquaintances stopped to tell me how much their lives improved due to reading

I met world-famous biz whiz Issamar Ginzberg in passing and he remembered that I authored the book.

A guy in the alternative healing world asked to do a business project with me within minutes of meeting me - because he likes how I interacted with people and that EMPOWER Yourself  presents many holistic, alternative and complementary healing options available to you. 

And he told me that Israelis have invented something so cutting-edge that it will put Google Glasses into the past. Blind people are able to see with this innovation. WOW.

Wait'll I inform you in a future post about how he heals psoriasis!

A Facebook friend recognized me in the crowd. He introduced me to his alternative healer wife, and she joined acquaintances giving me leads to meeting healing body work professionals.

Several individuals expressed interest in my medical coding expertise. I'm studying for certification in ICD-10 medical coding, as I've indicated before. 

ICD-10 coding goes into effect in the USA in October 2014 (other countries use the system already. Israel uses it to a limited extent). 

It will change the way US doctors, insurers and medical coders communicate. Expertise in how the system works will facilitate optimal insurance reimbursements for healthcare providers and patients (YOU if you hold American health insurance of some kind), and likely improve statistical efforts.

A magazine publisher stopped to chat with me about the compliment for my work that a reader sent to his biztalk page.

And just about everybody quoted my blog or the book during our conversations.

I spent lunchtime with a dear friend visiting from abroad. I've networked to the max and now I have to unwrap all the free gifts given out over there.

I'm still feeling the sense of fun I gained from what I'd expected would be a dull and dreary, but necessary, networking experience. Instead of handing out my resume, I made new friends, enjoyed old ones, and look forward to a rewarding future.
