    H.A.L.F. 9 has taken his first breath of desert air and his first steps in the human world. Created to be a weapon, he proved too powerful for his makers, hidden from humans and sedated. H.A.L.F. 9 has escaped the underground lab he called home, and the sedation has worn off. He has never been more alive. More powerful. Or more deadly. Erika Holt longs to ride her motorcycle east until pavement gives way to shore. She bides her time until graduation when she'll escape the trailer she shares with her alcoholic mother and memories of her dead father. But a typical night in the desert with friends thrusts Erika into a situation more dangerous than she ever imagined. Circumstances push the two together, and each must make a fateful choice. Will Erika help H.A.L.F. 9 despite her "don't get involved" rule? And will H.A.L.F. 9 let Erika live even though he was trained to kill? The two may need to forget their rules and training if either is to survive the dangers of the deep beneath them. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrew Tell.

    The definitive multimedia resource on wide awake hand surgery from renowned expertsWALANT (Wide Awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet) eliminates the need for preoperative testing, sedation, intravenous insertion, and monitoring in upper and lower limb surgery. Coupled with minimal pain injection techniques using pure local anesthesia with lidocaine and epinephrine, this technique has significantly improved hand surgery for patients and surgeons in many ways. Wide Awake Hand Surgery and Therapy Tips, Second Edition provides readers with the best and latest WALANT advances from Donald Lalonde and an impressive group of hand surgeons from 15 countries that have incorporated this groundbreaking technique into practice to benefit their patients. Each richly illustrated chapter encompasses evidence-based benefits, step-by-step guidance, patient education tips, detailed injection directions, surgery and therapy tips and tricks, postsurgical management, and related videos.WALANT produces better outcomes in flexor and extensor tendon repair, tendon transfer, tenolysis, tendon grafts, and finger fracture surgery because unsedated patients can easily move reconstructed parts during surgery. This allows surgeons to make required adjustments and teach patients uninterrupted while they are awake. Eliminating sedation also decreases risks, increases patient safety, and reduces pain associated with local anesthesia injection. Simple surgeries such as trigger finger and carpal tunnel release no longer require costly main operating rooms. Instead, they can be performed in minor procedure rooms with evidence-based sterility, resulting in lower costs and reduced biohazard waste. New Features- New strategies to implement WALANT in hospitals- The use of pencil test and relative motion splinting to resolve numerous hand problems- Innovative hand therapy techniques made possible by WALANT detailed under Therapy Tips- More than eight hours of video education covering ultrasound hand diagnosis and ultrasound-guided surgery- New chapters on upper and lower limb fracture plating of the wrist, forearm, elbow, acromion, clavicle, tibia, fibula, ankle, and foot- A three times larger video library with more than 500 videos, most of which are new This must-have resource will help hand surgeons, hand therapists, and allied nurses prevent unnecessary costs and risks, reduce complications, and improve patient outcomes.

    Do you find yourself lying awake at night, ruminating about the events of the day? Do you toss and turn, worrying about what you have to do in the morning or what you did earlier in the day? If so, you are not alone. In fact, insomnia is the most common sleep disorder faced by the general population today. The most common complaint in those who have trouble sleeping is having a "noisy mind". Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, it seems like you cannot silence all the internal dialogue. So what do you do when your mind is spinning and your thoughts just won't stop? Accessible, enjoyable, and grounded in evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Goodnight Mind directly addresses the effects of rumination - or having an overactive brain - on your ability to sleep well. Written by two psychologists who specialize in sleep disorders, the book contains helpful exercises and insights into how you can better manage your thoughts at bedtime and finally get some sleep. Traditional treatment for insomnia is usually focused on medications that promote sedation rather than on the behavioral causes of insomnia. Unfortunately, medication can often lead to addiction and a host of other side effects. This is a great book for anyone who is looking for effective therapy to treat insomnia without the use of medication. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Margo Trueblood.

    In 2000, Heather Abel, a journalist and grad student, awoke from sedation at NYU Hospital to find three doctors standing over her bed. They told her that she had the worst case they'd ever seen of a rare Scandinavian disease called celiac. At first, this diagnosis - and its requirement of total adherence to a gluten-free diet - seemed like the simple answer to a lifetime of strange symptoms including anemia, insomnia, pneumonia, mouth ulcers, missed periods, and neck pain so severe that for months preceding the diagnosis she hadn't been able to turn her head. But even on the diet - and as glutenphobia erupted in this country, with nearly a third of Americans avoiding gluten - Abel still didn't feel well. When doctors, nutritionists, and websites all offered contradicting information on gluten and diet, she began to panic. How would she know what to eat? In this powerful, wide-ranging, and emotional story about the limits of medical knowledge, Abel discovers why she wasn't diagnosed with celiac as a child. She considers how environmental fears and Internet anecdotes lead people to avoid gluten. And she grapples with the question that confronts us all: how to live calmly, even joyfully, in the face of uncertainty. Heather Abel worked as a reporter and news editor in Colorado and San Francisco and taught creative writing at the New School University and UMass Amherst. She lives with her family in western Massachusetts where she is finishing her first novel. Cover design by Hannah Perrine Mode. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Caroline Shaffer.

    If you want to understand how the mind talks to the rest of the body, you must first grasp how the brain works and how it creates a two-way dialogue. This audiobook is a brief introduction to that subject, while providing sufficient information so that you can understand the role that the mind/ brain plays in directing physical health. This is the third book in this series. The Innovations in Mind/Body Therapies series is a collection of ten short books that review latest thinking and research findings in integrative medicine, which is contrary to the bottom-up dogma that has been part of main-stream medicine for over a century.The focus is on what how the body - down to the sub-cellular level - reacts to its environment and how the mind can be intentionally used to affect the health through self-talk, imagery, meditation, and hypnotherapy. The ideas discussed are based upon thousands of research studies conducted by major US and international medical schools and research facilities.About the author: This series is by Tim Brunson, who holds both doctor of clinical hypnotherapy and doctor of philosophy clinical hypnotherapy degrees. He has practiced hypnotherapy for 29 years with clients and patients referred to him by medical and mental health practitioners. He has trained clinicians internationally and almost 3,000 hours of training, much of which was related to medical and mental health. Many of his courses are already available through Amazon in either short or longer books.  The basis of this series is much more than clinical experience and training. Dr. Brunson has used these concepts for his personal health and to vastly improve is own healthcare experiences. This includes surgery and recovery to include addressing multiple skin cancer tumors and outpatient surgeries during which he was fully aware and underwent the procedures without sedation. ungekürzt.

    Miya believes that her lover can read her thoughts. Has she just gone crazy? That is possible, seeing as she was kidnapped and taken to a research facility. Miya is enchanted by her captor and, gradually, she succumbs to his "magic hands". Content warning: This story contains abduction, bondage, and involuntary sedation. The sex is consensual and explicit. This audiobook is appropriate for mature listeners only. Excerpt: "Who are you?" I demanded. My body was giving way to panic. I pushed against the restraints, though I knew they wouldn't budge. "Give me a reading," the stranger stated. He positioned my injured arm between his hands, cupping my elbow. "Surface temperature 38 degrees," the man to my left stated. What? Was he talking about me? It had to be Celsius.... Damn it, I should know what that means. "Heart rate 140 BPM. Blood pressure 175 over 90." That I understood. It was way too high. I shuddered. But how did they read it without a cuff? "Just relax." His words blanketed me with a sense of ease, but there was something more. A warm comfort rippled beneath his hands. The pain in my elbow peeled away. With narrowed eyes he stared down at my arm. Sensation tingled toward my hand, like a rush of blood, then my hand went numb. "ETA 35 minutes," a man's voice said from the front of the vehicle. "Where are we going?" I tried to make my words forceful, but my chest was heavy. A hum of feeling in my arm consumed my awareness. My arm twitched then relaxed again. The pain was completely gone. I had tried reiki and meditation in college, but this was something I had never experienced. It was as if he commanded my muscles to relax. You're just imagining things. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Fear is one of the basic, negative but necessary feelings all of us experience from time to time. We feel it for a reason, usually to protect us, if you use this feeling to ensure you find a good dentist whom you like, well this is a good thing, but if your fear stops you from receiving necessary treatment then its time to redress the balance. There is of course a difference between harmless fears which have no or little impact on our day to day lives and strong fears or phobias. Few people actually enjoy going to the dentist but its worth noting that there have been massive improvements in dental procedures in recent years with the introduction of air-abrasion tools as an alternative to drills and sedation dentistry has become very accurate in the way areas are treated that may cause pain during a dental procedure. This recording is designed to help you to begin to reprogramme your mind to react in an appropriate way when you visit the dentist. It's unlikely you'll learn to love dental procedures as a result of using this recording! The aim is for you to not be bothered, to feel neutral, to learn how to relax, breathe naturally and easily and allow your mind to wander onto other things whilst you allow the dentist to get on with their job as quickly and as efficiently as possible. In addition to this recording being written and delivered by Darren Marks one of the UKs leading hypnotherapists and NLP practitioners, it also utilizes dual delivery hypnotherapy (DDH) and brainwave entrainment. DDH involves different suggestions or metaphors being delivered separately yet simultaneously through the right and left headphones. The effect is deeply hypnotic and has the advantage of helping the unconscious mind to accept beneficial suggestions with less conscious interference. Brainwave entrainment refers to the brain's electrical response to rhythmic stimulation. When the brain is stimulated through one of our physical senses it emits electrical charges ungekürzt.
