Nashville, TN (PRWEB) March 9, 2010

The Vanderbilt Institute for Global Health will host the annual meeting of the Burden of Surgical Disease Working Group (BoSD WG) in Nashville, TN, on March 10-12, 2010. http://www.globalhealth.vanderbilt.edu/bosd The BoSD WG mission is to advocate for the global delivery and improvement of surgical services, especially in low-income countries where the needs are great. http://www.burdenofsurgicaldisease.com

According to the BoSD WG founder Dr. K. A. Kelly McQueen, M.D., MPH and Fellow, Harvard Humanitarian Initiative: ?The BoSD WG has grown quickly and diversified in the 4 years since its grass root beginnings. While the group has made great strides in contributing peer-reviewed literature, to international collaboration and network building and to proactive academic discussion, we have yet to be broadly recognized by the global health community as an essential element of public health, contributing to decreased disability and premature death in a cost-effective and sustainable manner. This year we hope to expand our focus and improve advocacy through increased communication and corporate collaboration, as well as continuing with our goals to improve surgical infrastructure in low income countries, invest in education and training, and improve surgical and anesthesia outcomes.?

Speaking on behalf of Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Douglas C. Heimburger, M.D., M.S. said: ?Given the multidisciplinary missions of the BoSD WG and of the Vanderbilt Institute for Global Health http://www.globalhealth.vanderbilt.edu , and the strength of Vanderbilt University faculty in many departments involved in global health, it is a natural fit for Vanderbilt Institute of Global Health to lead in an interdepartmental effort on behalf of surgical needs in developing countries. We are pleased and privileged to partner in this effort and host this conference.?

The Honorable Senator William H. Frist M.D. will deliver a keynote address ?Lessons Learned in Haiti: Using Crisis to Highlight Surgical Need?. Senator Frist, a surgeon and humanitarian, and Chairman of Hope Through Healing Hands http://www.hopethroughhealinghands.org has recently returned from Haiti where he performed surgery for five days at Baptist Haiti Mission Hospital. Dr. Frist said: “While surgery is taken for granted in the U.S., in developing countries many people die unnecessarily from lack of surgical and anesthesia presence. The disaster in Haiti has highlighted the desperate need for surgeons for those who did survive the earthquake, but were severely injured. We should seize this moment to draw attention to this need, not just for Haiti, but for low income countries around the world.”

Bob Isherwood, Chief Creative Dude and Co-CEO of i.e. healthcare http://www.iehealthcare.com will also deliver a keynote ?For crying out loud? to address the communication challenges facing the BoSD WG?s objectives and how they might overcome them. Bob Isherwood is the former Worldwide Creative Director of Saatchi and Saatchi, Clio Hall of Famer, and co-author of the book ?World Changing Ideas?. Isherwood also has an Honorary Doctorate in Communications. Isherwood is using his consumer engagement and communications experience to bring attention and resources to needed healthcare issues. In February 2010, Isherwood was a mHealth Alliance panelist as part of the GSMA Mobile World Congress http://www.prweb.com/releases/2010/02/prweb3633584.htm where he talked about i.e. healthcare?s work with the mHealth Alliance to bring healthcare solutions through the mobile phone to improve maternal and newborn health, particularly in Africa as part of the UN Foundation?s Millennium Development Goals.

Jeff W. Morrill, President and CEO, NuOrtho Surgical, Inc. http://www.nuorthosurgical.com added: ?NuOrtho Surgical is pleased to recognize the immeasurable contributions of the Global Burden of Surgical Disease Working Group in changing the face of surgical care globally. However, a tremendous need still exists in areas such as mobility and basic orthopedic surgical procedures. NuOrtho looks forward to assisting the BoSD WG in building sustainable relationships for global health and expanding their efforts to preserve healthy tissue and enhance mobility.?

The BoSD WG March 10-12, 2010 meeting will have an elite group of 145 participants from 10 countries with representatives from: World Health Organization, International Committee for the Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, Operation Smile, Global Burden of Disease Project, Harvard Humanitarian Initiative, Vanderbilt University, Harvard University, Johns Hopkins University, University of California at San Francisco, University of Washington. University of Utah, University of Toronto, University of California at San Diego, Society of Anesthesiologists, American College of Surgeons, International College of Surgeons, International Society of Surgeons, and World Federation of Societies of Anesthesiologists.

Newnan, GA (PRWEB) October 3, 2006

It is estimated that over 60 million Americans have difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep1. Many don?t recognize the effect that poor quality sleep can have on their ability to perform during the day. Sleep difficulties and stress can become a vicious cycle. To complicate matters a study just released shows a variety of common over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription medications can cause long-term cognitive impairment of the aging brain2.

Acupressure Technique Proves Effective in Serious Diseases

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) October 10, 2006

Can tapping on the head and torso help cure or improve a serious illness?

Gary Craig, the Stanford-trained engineer who developed EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), has spent the last two years proving that it can. In three-day workshops in cities across the U.S., Craig worked onstage — and on camera — with patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson?s disease, Lou Gehrig?s disease, and other serious illnesses.

Now those workshops are available for all to see in two sets of bargain-priced DVDs.

?What excites me most about EFT,? says Craig, ?is its application to physical health and wellness. I?m convinced more than ever that Modern Medicine has walked right by a major contributor to chronic and acute diseases. Our unresolved angers, fears, and traumas show up in our physical bodies and manifest as rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson?s disease, and hundreds of other illnesses. The only sensible way to treat these diseases is to first treat their underlying cause.?

EFT combines focused thought with gentle fingertip tapping of key acupuncture points, a technique that clears energy blocks along the body?s meridians, the same energy paths mapped by Chinese physicians thousands of years ago. Tapping while concentrating on physical symptoms or past traumas can release both blocks and symptoms.

?This approach sounds unusual to most Westerners,? says Los Angeles physician Eric Robins, MD, ?but it makes perfect sense if you realize that everything in the body relates and responds to energy. When the energy flow in the body is blocked, then this predisposes to disease. And, the biggest cause of blocked energy is emotional issues, and how they are stored in and processed by the body. EFT does a remarkable job of clearing emotional issues at a deep enough level that a physiologic shift occurs, and physical healing results. I routinely teach EFT to patients because it clears up so many chronic conditions, including many that don?t respond to conventional treatment. The Serious Diseases DVD series does an excellent job of demonstrating how patients with all kinds of illnesses respond to this gentle, effective technique.?

The seven DVDs in Series 1 deal with Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome (CFIDS), cancer pain, multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS), diabetes, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, or Lou Gehrig?s disease), rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, ankylosing spondylitis, keratakonis, Parkinson?s disease, cystic fibrosis, dizziness caused by blood pooling, breast cancer, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

The eight DVDs in Series 2 involve head injury, sensitivity to light and noise, ankyosing spondylitis, Parkinson?s disease, neurogenic bladder, pituitary gland tumor, hepatitis C, severe vaginal problems, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, PTSD, neuropahthy, prostate cancer, CFIDS, MCS, diabetes, hypermobility, and pain resulting from child abuse.

The combined set, which contains 40 hours of instruction and demonstrations, costs only $ 72 at https://www.emofree.com/Store/store.aspx?ref=prw-sdcj, or the two sets can be ordered separately. Since introducing EFT in the late 1990s, Craig has encouraged users to share the technique?s free manual and seminar videos. Each DVD comes with his written permission to give away up to 100 copies.

Over 350,000 have downloaded the free EFT manual from http://www.emofree.com/downloadeftmanual.asp?ref=prw-sdcj and an additional 10,000 download it every month. The manual is available in nine languages, and EFT practitioners around the world, especially in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Japan, and Australia, teach EFT classes and work with clients.

Caveman Lifestyle Proves Foodies Wrong as Paleo Shows Versatility in the Kitchen

Bellingham, WA (PRWEB) March 11, 2010

Historical images of cavemen depict lean torsos, glowing complexions and slim offspring, yet unless we make some radical changes, 100 years from now, the modern day depiction of the average man will look very different without the assistance of photo-editing.

Paleo diet enthusiast and author of the Paleo Cookbooks, Nikki Young, says; ?people are becoming increasingly aware that following a paleo diet will not only make us look healthier and younger, but also considerably reduce the chances of illness and improve our general quality of life?.

Naturally healthy looking people are close to becoming a thing of the past. Bad skin, dark eye circles, obesity, premature aging and consistent illness have become accepted sufferance?s of life. Fast living means fast food, and the unhealthier we get the more we crave the processed food diet we have become accustomed to. That is until now.

A health revolution branded ?The Paleo Diet? is taking the world back to its hunter-gatherer roots. Food specialists are admitting that a wrong turn driven by modern agricultural has left society in a state of very bad health, and the Paleo Diet is producing results previously unseen by medical science. Evidence that Paleolithic living can cure migraines, sleep problems, high blood pressure and obesity is steering people away from quick fix Hollywood diets and back toward the diet nature intended humans to follow.

The Paleo Diet is aligned with our natural environment. It requires us to eat as our ancestors would have done. Naturally, our bodies are designed to eat nuts, fruits, seeds and meat, not processed foods or foods containing preservatives and high levels of salt and sugar.

Up until now, foodies have criticised Paleo eating for a lack of choice and meal variety, the thought of not being able to eat pasta, cheese or ice-cream has panicked those who live for taste bud tickling meals, but not anymore. One of the key figures responsible for leading the Paleo revolution is Nikki Young, a Paleo Diet enthusiast and author of the cookbook series, ?The Paleo Cookbooks?. Nikki?s Paleo Cookbooks offer over 310 innovative Paleo recipes, ranging from snacks to fully fledged evening meals. The notion that a Paleo existence is a bland one is fast becoming a misconception of the past. The Paleo Cookbooks even offer chocolate and cake recipes that keep those processed sugar cravings at bay.

Paleolithic living is proving that wheat and dairy intolerances needn?t be a part of our lives anymore. We don?t need pasta, bread, dairy products or processed foods making us feel bloated and lethargic, what we need is a diet that compliments our biological design and is kind to our digestive system. The benefits of eating fresh foods naturally harvested from the earth like our forefathers did is not a scientific revelation, it is just logical common sense.

The last decade has been plagued by diet fads, patronising nutritionists and a society obsessed with weight loss, yet Paleo living is helping to make ?counting calories? and visits to the doctor?s surgery a thing of the past.

Although referred to as a diet, Paleo eating should be considered more of a sensible and obvious lifestyle choice. Unlike conventional dieting, there is no measuring of food quantities and frustrating daily weigh-ins, only the requirement of eating natural, wholesome ingredients, rich in vitamins and minerals.

Paleo cooking provides a balanced, natural and delicious diet that doesn?t take much effort, and the best part is that you don?t need to eat less to lose weight, because your body will naturally adapt to the natural food sources that promote a healthy lean body.

Pittsburgh, PA (Vocus) September 2, 2010

Teachers of Wisdom, a new book by Dr. Igor Kononeko, has been released by RoseDog Books.

Teachers (the Sages, Self-realized, Freed, Awakened, Perfected, Enlightened) were appearing and are still appearing in all the ages on all the continents, most often when we need them the most. The collection in this book describes 79 personalities for whom there exist historical documents about their lives, works and teachings. All sages claim that the Truth is indescribable; therefore we should read, study and meditate about their teachings not only with our mind but also at the same time intuitively feel them with our hearts. As the sages are consistent regardless of the time, location, culture or tradition, it is obvious that they all declare the same Truth, although each of them uses his or her own terminology and style for describing the indescribable Truth. ?Written wisdom? is, of course, a relative term, as the true Wisdom is in principle indescribable. Its numerous descriptions, collected in this book, show the innumerable ways in which Wisdom can be expressed and the innumerable paths through which we can attain It.

Teachers of Wisdom is a 418-page paperback with a retail price of $ 33.00. The ISBN is 978-1-4349-9898-9. It was published by RoseDog Books of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. For more information or to request a review copy, please visit our virtual pressroom at http://www.rosedog.com/pressroom or our online bookstore at http://www.rosedogbookstore.com.
