I found this book through a side door.  I have been looking for information to suppress inflammation,since my knees have been hurting more and less for twenty years.   During an exam, my doctor said I had considerable crepitus...

Thank you for posting Bill. I too have knee pain and arthritis and have been looking to reduce inflammation. Before I tell you what I have done, I want you to know about an interview I recently did about Childhood Disrupted with Donna. You can check out my web site at http://www.nurserona.com/ . I will post the interview there after it airs on KPFA.org on Nov. 23rd. I have known about the ACEs work for many years now, and find it essential for healing. I recently was able to get Kaiser to...

I use TRE® to release the trauma of my past. I have found it the best tool I have ever used, far better than talk therapy (for neurologiacal reasons at least), visualizations, tapping, meditation, art, breathing, yoga, yawning, EMDR, and so on. One, I have this tool. I don't need an appointment to get release. Two, I get release, not relief. The other tools give relief. Three, I don't need talk or think about the past events to practice TRE. Four, it's natural. No devices no meds, it's...

I'm glad you found Donna Nakazawa's book useful. I'll copy your note to send her. Another good book is "Scared Sick" by Karr-Morse. You can check it out on Amazon. Of course, the book I'm waiting for is the one Jane Stevens is writing on the ACE Study and the long-term effects of childhood adversity. Not only has she become impressively knowledgeable but Jane is a superbly engaging writer. There is not yet enough information on the comparative effectiveness of various treatment approaches to...

I just realized that I did not give any info on what I'm doing to reduce inflammation. And thinking about it, I may need to write it up offline and post it when I've got it put together. I think I'll put it in timeline format, summarizing for space and reading efficiency. Follow up will have further details if anyone wants to read them. Fortunately the dietary interventions are tasty! The supplements are readily available at any local mega-mart. I don't sell any of them, so no profit to me.

When I sat down in my attic to write THE ANGEL AND THE ASSASSIN: The Tiny Brain Cell that Changed the Course of Medicine , I never imagined that it would be so needed in our world! 2020 has been chock-full of adversity, uncertainty and distress on so many levels: the worst pandemic in a hundred years, millions facing economic uncertainty, global climate change, and mounting political discord. The past decade has been a golden era in brain research, one in which scientists have offered...
