Kixx Goldman Announces Giveaway Of Bestselling Ebook, 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard', New Article On Thinking Out Of The Box

The ebook version of her bestselling book, 'Speak from Your Heart and Be Heard', will be available at no charge at Amazon May 8 through May 9, 2025.

Dr. Kixx Goldman has announced that her bestselling ebook, 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard: Stories Of Courage And Healing' will be available at no charge May 8 through May 9, 2025 at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/stores/Dr.-Kixx-Goldman/author/B07XCZ9SXS?. She also announced an article about the importance of learning to think out of the box.

"Thinking out of the box" is a phrase we hear quite often. It is a metaphor for a way to challenge old ideas, and see things from a different perspective, problem solve and develop creative and innovative solutions. Thinking out of the box is more important than ever today, when navigating situations that are subject to rapid change and unpredictability. Above all, it allows us to connect with the intuitive voice that lies within us all. This voice might ask us to color outside the lines, and see possibility where others see boundaries.

Kixx addressed this subject in an article titled,"Thinking Out of the Box", posted on her website at https://drkixxgoldman.com. In that article she wrote in part:

“The World Is a Safer Place.” Those are the words of Catherine Oxenberg, a woman whom I admire greatly, spoken after the sentencing of Nxivm Cult leader, Keith Raniere. (Christine Pelisek Published on October 27, 2020 08:51PM EDT)

Catherine Oxenberg is the former Dynasty star, who fought to free her daughter from the Nexium cult. She is known for her tenacity. In 2020, she was confronted with a period of severe physical pain. Finally, with the help of a doctor, she was able to make the connection between all of her past traumatic experiences and the sudden onset of pain and depression, and following that, made a wise treatment choice. (By David Walters Published on June 20, 2023 03:38PM EDT)

What came to mind when I first learned about Catherine Oxenberg and her courage and triumph over travails, was the notion of “thinking out of the box.”

I believe the ability to think out of the box gives us a certain degree of flexibility and can lead to problem solving and innovative, creative solutions.

Two women are striking models. They thought out of the box. The first is the courageous bush nurse Sister Elizabeth Kenny,whose life spanned the 19th and 20th centuries.

The other is therapist Rachel Stern, the main character in my story, “Monitored.”

Sister Kenny developed a new and controversial approach for treating victims of Polio, previously known as Infantile Paralysis. She lived in Australia during the time of the Polio epidemics and later moved to Minnesota and opened a clinic where her revolutionary methods were applied. Kenny’s story inspired me to share my story of therapist Rachel. One could say the two women were of a like-minded persuasion. (Some would say Sister Kenny’s story has some parallels with the recent pandemic.)

As a young woman, I heard nurse Kenny’s name many times and became curious. A couple of years ago, I noticed a 1946 movie on TCM: Sister Kenny. I was riveted as I watched and thus began my fascination. (“Sister” is a title of courtesy which applies to a more highly qualified nurse.)

I wrote about Rachel Stern and her client, Erik, in my story “Monitored.” It is based upon real events in my life, which have been fictionalized. Rachel’s therapeutic model is similar to mine. We’ve both helped clients heal using experiential and emotionally focused therapies.

Elizabeth Kenny and Rachel Stern were of a like-minded persuasion. Some would say Sister Kenny’s story has some parallels with the recent pandemic.

Both women bucked the tide of their times, stood up to the establishment and thought out of the box. Their outlooks and therapeutic approaches were innovative and vital to their worlds.

Concerns about trauma have become prevalent in our society today. Trauma has become a popular "buzzword" we all use. It can take many forms. Traumatic events do not fit neatly into categories, nor can they be labeled. They encompass disturbing or sometimes violent experiences which can leave us frightened and anxious. There are "everyday traumas," like failing an exam or feeling criticized by a partner. These are all part of life.

We all wish to heal from our traumatic experiences and that healing can take many forms. Professional help is a choice for some. We can build supportive networks with family, friends or caring groups. We can practice self-care. Education is another path - through education, we can learn ways to make informed decisions, to reduce shame or self-blame.

Dr. Kixx Goldman, bestselling author of 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard - Stories Of Courage And Healing', believes intuition can help us on the journey to healing. Intuition can work in tandem with healing approaches in its power to connect us with our deepest emotions and values, enabling us to make choices that resonate with our personal goals and priorities.

Dr. Kixx Goldman Featured On Cover Of Great Writers You Should Be Reading Magazine

Ki0xx encourages reader to create their own unique blueprint for healing by listening to their intuitive inner voice in 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard'.

Dr. Kixx Goldman was recently featured on the front cover of Great Writers You Should Be Reading Magazine, regarding an interview done on The Authors Show. In that interview she discussed her latest bestselling book, 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard - Stories Of Courage And Healing.'

The source of intuition is somewhat of a mystery. Some research indicates that it is closely tied to our unconscious ability to process information, drawing upon our unique experiences and patterns to make meaningful connections and even predictions. Dr. Kixx Goldman believes it can also be a powerful ally in helping us overcome trauma.

By drawing from the wisdom of our intuition, we can forge our own unique path to healing, overcome challenges, and unlock our full potential.

“Have your ever dreamed of rewriting your own history?” Goldman asked. "Or longed to go back and change something you did – or wished you could speak up and say something you wished you’d said?

“It happened to me.

“When I saw the cover of Great Writers You Should Be Reading with my photo, and listened once again to my interview with Don McCauley, I felt a sense of joy and accomplishment.

“As a child, I'd been known to speak my mind, but as a teenager and adult, speaking from my heart had been drummed out of me by life's lessons.

“After I'd written the stories for my collection and created a title for them, I suddenly realized I was sending myself a message through my writing. It was time to speak out, from my heart --to be heard.

“Through the experience of doing the interview, I felt my dream had been fulfilled. I'd reclaimed the spirited and fearless voice of my youth. And now, it's my fervent wish for my readers to be inspired, to summon their courage, honor their intuition and speak from their hearts about their thoughts and feelings.”

In 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard - Stories Of Courage And Healing', Kixx takes readers on a journey that is an illuminating exploration into intuition, resilience, and emotional honesty. Through a collection of eight realistic but fictional stories, she begins to show us key strategies for navigating life's challenges with courage and authenticity. Every one of the stories serves as a compelling testament to the transformative power of honoring one's own inner voice. The key word here is "own". Each form of trauma is unique to the individual, and thus requires a one-of-a-kind approach. The author has a talent that allows her to help guide readers to discover their own paths, without resorting to preaching or promising.

Leslie S. Greenberg, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus of the Department of Psychology at York University called the book, "A lovely book of short stories touching on many painful issues in life, like abuse —sexual and otherwise-- gender, and deception. What stands out is the author's positive view of human nature. In each story, the characters' resilience is illustrated by how they transform difficult life stories into constructive final narratives. They find the courage to triumph over challenges to heal and they grow. The message of the book: speaking one's truth makes for desired change and healing. An added feature is the behind-the-scenes view of the author's personal experiences-the source of the stories-a treat not often given to readers.

From the struggles of devoted fathers and resilient teachers to the courageous defiance of therapists and survivors, the characters in "Speak from Your Heart" exemplify the resilience of the human spirit and will. Through these stories, readers are reminded of the inherent strength that lies within each of us, inspiring us to heal and reclaim our power.

Trauma is a word that can encompass a wide range of experiences, from major life-altering events to seemingly small incidents. Regardless of the form, these events hold great significance for the individuals who suffer. The impact of trauma on mental, emotional, and physical well-being can be profound and far-reaching. So,we must ask, "How can we best heal the trauma in our own lives?”

Intuition is a powerful ally that can help us make informed decisions, solve problems, and navigate challenging situations. While the exact processes behind intuition are not yet fully understood, research suggests that it is related to the our ability to process information unconsciously, drawing on experiences and patterns to make connections and perhaps predictions. What is equally important is that intuition allows individuals to tap into their own emotions and values, helping them to make decisions that align with their personal goals and priorities.

In her bestselling ebook, 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard - Stories Of Courage And Healing', Dr. Kixx takes readers on a journey that is an illuminating exploration into intuition, resilience, and emotional honesty.

The Anguish Of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) And The Path To Healing Addressed By Dr. Kixx Goldman, Author Of Bestselling Book, Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard

'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard' contains fictionalized inspiring stories, based on real life and professional experience. The ebook version is a bestseller in the Single Author Short Stories category.

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a very complex, life changing condition. The effects can be profound and can last a lifetime. Dr. Kixx Goldman, author of the bestselling book, Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard, discussed TBI in a series of posts on her website. The series, Crash, is raw and compelling, as "Samantha", the subject of the story, is the author's close friend. The damage went far beyond the effects of the TBI, as Samantha sadly lost a child in the accident that caused the TBI.

In Part 1 of this heart-wrenching piece, Dr. Kixx wrote, in part:

Back in the day, when I studied for my doctorate, I learned about human psychological, social and emotional development-- and challenges. During that time, I helped children with learning disabilities. I read about TBI — Traumatic Brain Injury — and strategies for re-education, from a glossy blue and yellow workbook called Brain Stars – Brain Injury: Strategies for Teams and Re-education for Students. An excellent source book, but no real people stepped out of the book and spoke to me.

Not until years later. After I'd met Samantha. Sam was also in a helping profession and we traded advice and became friends.

I was in awe of Sam’s intellect and wit, and her awesome energy. That was before her injury and the story I wrote about it, Crash.

Recently, I ran across a description by Dixie Coskie, TBI Ten Years Later: A Mother’s Story Continues. The author notes: “But the reality is — unless you have experienced the loss, the heartache, and the ripple effects that brain injury can inflict — you cannot possibly understand the magnitude and the seriousness of the life-altering implications. The long-term impact that TBI imposes on the injured person, family members, and friends is unthinkable.

The full text of the blog Crash is available at https://drkixxgoldman.com/trauma/missing-samantha-traumatic-brain-injury/.

In her bestselling book, 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard - Stories Of Courage And Healing', Dr. Kixx takes readers on a journey that is an illuminating exploration into intuition, resilience, and emotional honesty.

Create Your Own Blueprint For Healing Your Trauma - Unique Approaches And Individual Differences In Healing Trauma By Dr. Kixx Goldman, Author Of Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard

'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard' contains fictionalized inspiring stories, based on real life and professional experience.

Traumatic events, unlike what many of us are led to believe, can take many forms, extending beyond those that are violent or life-threatening. Trauma can be experienced as a result of social interactions, cultural influences, events in childhood and a host of other origins. Every form of trauma is unique to the individual. Dr. Kixx Goldman, author of “Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard,” addressed this issue in a article posted on her website. In that article she said, in part:

“We study Trauma to explore and understand how it affects our biology, perceptions of our world and our psychological and emotional functioning in that world.

Trauma encompasses distressing or disturbing experiences which can leave us frightened and anxious. These experiences are part of life!

They test our resilience.

When I wrote my book Speak from your Heart and Be Heard: Stories of Courage and Healing, I didn’t set out to write about trauma and healing. But when I finished and looked back at my stories, I discovered I’d written about my own life experiences as well as fictionalized traumatic events in the lives of my clients.

Readers agree. Their feedback and reviews affirm that the stories are about healing trauma!

These days, people use the words ‘trauma’ and ‘traumatic’ a lot—in relation to all kinds of experiences. Let’s look at a relevant definition?

Let’s define what we mean by a traumatic event: “I believe Trauma comes in many forms, not always of a violent or life-threatening nature.

Failing an exam, being criticized by a parent or partner, even forgetting our lines in a play—can be traumatic for us. I call these ‘Everyday Traumas.’

Something like 9-11 or the Vietnam War would be considered a ‘Horrendous Trauma.’

Trauma expert Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk talks a lot about the suffering and traumatic effects of both 9-11 and Vietnam. He’s worked with many people affected by those events and describes trauma as "something horrendous, that makes you stare with horror--” you can’t possibly imagine what you would do and you think your life is over…”

The doctor tells a story about a five-year-old boy—wise and compassionate beyond his years. The boy lived near the towers in New York and witnessed the 9-11 fires and people screaming and jumping out of windows. The heartwarming part of the story is that the boy drew a large, round object underneath the people jumping. When asked what it was, he said, “it’s a trampoline to catch them, so they won’t die.”

In his groundbreaking book, Dr. Van der Kolk notes that Trauma is an experience or event that produces actual physiological changes, including a recalibration of the brain’s alarm system, an increase in stress hormone activity and an alteration in the system that filters relevant from irrelevant information.

Trauma can indeed create various changes in the brain. People respond to and process trauma in very different ways.”

INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES

Have you ever wondered:

Why some people are able to overcome their grief over traumatic events and cope successfully to become happy and fulfilled while others remain hopeless and stuck?

Create Your Own Blueprint For Healing Your Trauma - The Trauma Of Parental Separation Can Be Resolved Says Dr. Kixx Goldman, Author Of Speak From Your Heard And Be Heard

'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard' contains fictionalized inspiring stories, based on real life and professional experience.

When children are separated from their parents, they often endure profound trauma. It is a heart-breaking experience that can deeply affect their emotional well-being. What happens to these fragile beings when they are taken from their primary source of security and love?

This situation is complex and distressing. This form of trauma tends to erode children’s self- esteem and can manifest in various ways, including anxiety and depression. It can lead to self-destructive or anti-social behaviors. These children, who are in the process of forming their sense of self, struggle to comprehend the sudden loss of their caregivers. They are left grappling with questions that a child should not have to ponder: "Why did my parents leave me?" or "Will they ever come back?"

The resulting emotional scars can have a profound effect on their mental and emotional development, echoing through their lives long after the separation has occurred. Dr. Kixx Goldman, author of 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard: Stories Of Courage And Healing,' addressed this issue in an article posted on her site titled, "Children Caught In The Crossfire." In that article she wrote in part:

Most of us have had experience with trauma in our lives. I’ve worked with many clients who’ve reached out to me in their times of distress and trauma. I helped a single mother whose fears of losing her children brought her to therapy. As a young child, “Charlotte,” spent many evenings locked in the car alone during her mother’s long bouts drinking in the bar. When I met her, Charlotte was addicted to prescription meds. She arrived wild-eyed, hair flying, her complexion a grey pallor. She wanted to quit for her children’s sake and longed to go to a detox center but feared social services would take her children away, as they had once before.

I vowed to help my client. Aware of the damaging effects of family separation on children, I knew it was critical to protect Charlotte and her children. I’ve understood the importance of young children’s secure and consistent attachment with a parent figure since reading the work of British psychologist and father of attachment theory, John Bowlby.

My short story, “Caught in the Crossfire,” inspired by my work with Charlotte, is about the effects of children being separated from their parents. It offers hope and resolution . . .

Psychoanalyst Dr. Nancy Burke says trauma freezes people in time. Children who are traumatized, particularly those who haven’t acquired the language to conceptualize their feelings or put them into words,  can’t say what’s frightening them. As a result, many “act out,” and are not able to relate to their parents or others in a meaningful way. Research confirms neurological and emotional consequences of separation.

Tragically, despite all the hope and joy when parents are reunited with their children, it may be a shock rather than a happy ending. Parents aren’t always prepared for the long period of recovery. Even if returning children do have language, they don’t always have access to their feelings and can’t put them into words, making relationships difficult. One child couldn’t speak, but sat in his play group chewing on a Nerf ball and biting it to pieces. Charlotte’s toddler couldn’t draw, but could only chew on crayons when she returned. As Dr. Burke points out, “normal reactions to abnormal circumstances look abnormal.”

In Charlotte’s case, the system had overreached itself in the past, by taking her children away. Yet, I do believe we have to draw the line somewhere. Children neglected by parents “under the influence” are surely at risk and, of course, we need them to be protected. I feel compassion for both the children and their parents, at the same time. Fortunately, in Charlotte’s case, we were able to help her detox without leaving her home to do it. We also mandated her attendance at our parenting skills program and followed up with family therapy for a year. After her rehabilitation, Charlotte went back to school and had a successful career as a counselor.

Speak From Your Heart and Be Heard By Dr. Kixx Goldman Offers Inspirational Stories Of Trauma, Courage And Healing

'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard' contains fictionalized inspiring stories, based on real life and professional experience.

For those suffering from trauma of any kind, healing is of paramount importance, as it helps individuals to reclaim their lives, restore a sense of inner peace, and foster overall well-being. Trauma can affect a person deeply, emotionally and physically, leading to a range of symptoms and difficulties. Healing from trauma promotes resilience, empowering individuals to regain a sense of control, rebuild trust in themselves and others, and cultivate healthier coping mechanisms. This paves the way for personal growth, enhancing self-compassion and self-esteem, and empowers individuals to form healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

Inspirational stories possess a remarkable power to facilitate healing and resilience in the face of trauma. By sharing tales of triumph over adversity, these kinds of stories can provide a source of hope and encouragement for individuals grappling with their own traumatic experiences. They can offer a sense of integration and connection, reminding survivors that they are not alone in their struggles, and that it is possible to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges and emerge stronger on the other side.

Inspiring stories can help provide a roadmap for healing, offering valuable insights, coping strategies, and the reassurance that recovery is attainable. Readers can find solace, inspiration, and the motivation to embark on their own journey of healing and growth.

This healing process is the focus of Dr. Kixx Goldman's most recent book, 'Speak From Your Heart And Be Heard'. In this book, Dr. Goldman explores the nature of intuition and resilience. When people honor their intuition, the "little voice" inside, and speak openly about their feelings, they thrive in their relationships.

The eight engaging fictional stories in this collection are personal, drawn from experiences in Dr. Kixx's life and the lives of her clients. The characters are tested by everyday traumas . . .

• A devoted father and his daughter find hope in rewriting their past.
• With remarkable grit, a teacher escapes a surprise attack.
• To heal his childhood wounds, a man must conquer his fears.
• A therapist defies the establishment to protect her clients.
• As she confronts the church, a therapist regains her standing.
• A woman learns the risks of not speaking out.
• By sharing her story and bonding with peers, a woman overcomes her trauma.

As the characters in these stories find the courage to triumph over their challenges, they heal and grow.

Inspired by real life people, characters show us how we can find the courage to transform difficult and traumatic life experiences, speak our truth and reclaim our power. 'Speak from Your Heart' offers the reader a guided tour of unique and powerful approaches to healing trauma. An added feature and treat for readers, Behind the Scenes reveals more about the source of the stories.

"This book is about Bringing our Stories to Life. And it’s about how writing can change your life,” Goldman noted.

“Creating this collection of short fiction has been transformative. After my children were grown, I had time to rediscover fiction.

“That’s when I decided to follow writer Toni Morrison’s advice, ‘If there’s a book you really want to read but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.’

“Before I knew it, I began to write about my life and the words flowed. Stories animated by my personal experiences, and my professional work with clients, made their way onto the page. Filtering the stories through the lens of fiction helped to breathe life into the characters and illuminate their relationships.

“I reached into the recesses of my soul to create these stories.”

The book has received rave reviews from readers and reviewers. Leslie S. Greenberg, PhD, distinguished Research Professor Emeritus, Dept. of Psychology, York University said, " In each story, the characters' resilience is illustrated by how they transform difficult life stories into constructive final narratives. They find the courage to triumph over challenges to heal and they grow. The message of the book: speaking one's truth makes for desired change and healing."

Bestselling Author Bernard Fleury's Near Death Experience Ebook, Near Death Experience, Out Of The Darkness Into The Light, Has Achieved Bestseller Status In Two Science Categories

Dr. Fleury is the author of thirteen books across a number of genres. Many are best sellers and all have received high rating from readers and reviewers.

Dr. Bernard Fleury has announced that his highly praised book, Near Death Experience: Out Of The Darkness Into The Light, has achieved bestseller status in two categories - Medical Research and Neuroscience.

The book clearly describes what happens in the profound near-death experience. In this award-winning bestseller, Fleury presents a penetrating look into the near death experience that is unlike any other book about NDE’s available today. Readers will learn what really happens in the profound near-death experience.

'Near-Death Experience: Out of the Darkness into the Light', details what happens to people who have had a profound near-death experience. It presents a comprehensive overview of this experience as reported in several major studies. Research findings include information from Raymond Moody, MD; Melvin Morse, MD; Pim Van Lommel, MD; Kenneth Ring, PhD; and Bruce Greyson, MD; J. Steve Millerand P.M.H. Atwater. Fleury personally interviewed 3 persons who claimed they had an experience of light during their N-D Experience.

Nearly all of Bernard's books center squarely on the theme of Light as a Someone and a Something. He believes we are all Called Into Life By The Light. Life and Light are tied together. Lifelight describes their relationship best because both our “without” (our physical being) and our “within” (our spirit) are basically light in two different forms:

1. Physical energy that occupies space, has weight, can be measured, and

2. Psychic or spiritual energy which is a force that causes things to happen and, thus, real energy, but it does not occupy space, have weight, nor can it be empirically measured.

Bernard Fleury has written a total of thirteen books to date. These include:

How Jesus Christ Leads Us To The Kingdom of Heaven
The Mind Body Spirit Connection in the Medicine of Light
Teilhard De Chardin The Search For Light in Evolution
Human Sexuality in St. John Paul II and Teilhard de Chardin
Near Death Experience Out of the Darkness Into The Light
The Unfailing Light Remedy for Alienation Loneliness and Despair
What is Man Male and Female
A Bee In His Bonnet

All of his books have been highly praised by readers and reviewers alike. Many are bestsellers and most have achieved 5-star ratings. Many are available in audio format. The full list of his books, including reviews, can be found at Amazon or at his website.

Bernard was chosen as one of ‘50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading’ in the 2017 Book Awards. His honor came as a result of his appearance on The Authors Show. He was chosen from a field of hundreds of authors through a public voting process.

Near Death Experience: Out Of The Darkness Into The Light, is available at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Bernard-J-Fleury/e/B002KBTNW8?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_2&qid=1663180407&sr=8-2

New Script Now Available, Adapted From 'Leena - An Abused, Bruised And Bloodied Woman' By Author Sid Nachman

Leena is an unforgettable story of abuse and healing. Sid Nachman has been called "one of the funniest and endearing story-tellers of his generation." His latest work offers hope for women who have suffered abuse through a heart-wrenching story based on real life events.

Sid Nachman has announced the release of 'Raw', a 3 act play script adapted from his latest book, 'Leena: An Abused, Bruised And Bloodied Woman'. The new release tells the story of unspeakable abuse and healing, from early childhood into adult life. But Leena managed to overcome her experience, transforming a miserable past into a future filled with promise and hope. Sid Nachman recounts her inspiring tale with a dose of acerbic wit that shines through on every page. The end result is a book that is both wildly entertaining and incredibly revealing.

Suitable for plays for over-18 theatre of any type, from large venues to college and community threatres, the stage play is a dramatic adaptation of 'Leena' presented in 3 acts. The script is available at no charge at http://www.payhip.com/sidnachman.

“Leena proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that you and I can make our impossible dreams come true," Nachman stated. "All we need is determination, an unquenchable belief in ourselves and a little help from God.”

Sid Nachman is also the author of 'Bipolar Me'. 'Bipolar Me' provides a penetrating glimpse into the day-to-day experience of a man who dealt with a condition for which there was no name at the time - a time when such chemical imbalances might be diagnosed as a form of schizophrenia and could be treated with electric shock treatment or end up with the sufferer being locked away.

'Bipolar Me' has garnered high praise from readers and reviewers alike. Sid's no-holds-barred writing style produces a work that is filled with hilarious stories that show us that life is just plain good. BookLover USA said that the book is "A roller coaster ride through the mind of one of the funniest and endearing story-tellers of his generation." It is a highly entertaining memoir that allows readers a glimpse into the unfettered mind of a bipolar boy who never grows up until his hair turns white. Readers will get to see his world in black and white and vivid color and will feel what he feels when he feels like he weighs three thousand pounds and a minute later can leap over tall buildings. Sid's life is a life gone wild that settles down when it’s almost too late.

'Bipolar Me' would bring me great joy if it can convince one person to never give up on themselves and try everyday with all the strength in their body to be a better human being."

Sid's first novel, 'Strictly For Seniors' is a nonfiction work of short stories about what happened to Sid "after breakfast on Delancey Street" in West Philly during the 30’s and 40’s when his Mom gave him a big hug and kiss and sent him on his way. Sid had great fun, survived bullying by hitting the bigger boys about the head with his violin case and developed his own singular brand of “street smarts".

"I wrote 'Strictly for Seniors' to show the readers a world they should never forget and to let them know unequivocally that older people like me can still teach them a thing or two."

Nachman's books have received fantastic reviews. One stated, "Like James Joyce, Sid Nachman can take the ordinary and turn it into magic with a fluency that's imperceptible." Another said "Sid's stories touch the human soul with wit, charm and realism."

Sid Nachman is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below or by email at mollymax210@gmail.com. All books are available at Amazon. More information, including samples from the books and recent interviews with The Authors Show, is available at his website at http://www.sidnachman.com.

About Sid Nachman:

Sid Nachman was the only child of immigrant parents from Russia and Germany who tried for 13 years to have him and were very tired from trying so hard. His initials are S.I.N. for Sidney Irving Nachman. He never found out if he was a sin or a joy. Sid resides in Florida with his wife, Linda and his golden retriever Violet and in spite of his big mouth is still loved by all.

Some With Cancer Receive Divine Healing While Others Do Not; Christian Author Terry Allan Christian Explains Why

Terry's book, 'What Did Jesus Say? The Seven Messages from the Master' contains over 500 Bible verses spoken directly by Jesus as recorded in the red-letter edition of the New King James Bible, organized by subject, without added interpretations, commentaries or opinions.

Divine healing is defined by Merriam Webster as "healing attributed to the direct agency of God usually in response to faith". As we all know, there have been thousands of documented cases of Divine healing. Conversely, many sincere people, Christians too, have done everything in their power to be healed and have failed. Why is this so?

Terry Christian received Divine healing from bladder cancer. He recently offered his own story to demonstrate why Divine healing works and why it may not:

"Divine healing is a sensitive subject among many people, especially Christians, because very few want to take responsibility for their own illness or diagnoses," Terry said. "Many allow their doctors to predict the outcome of their medical situation while only a few will go out of their way to seek ‘divine healing’.

"Many Christians become sad, disappointed or fearful and give up. Some think they’ll get to Heaven quicker if they give up and that’s based on manmade religious opinions over the years, and is not something everyone agrees on.

"In 2009 I was diagnosed with severe bladder cancer and told I’d die in 3-5yrs if I didn’t let the doctors remove my bladder and attach it to the outside of my body. My desire to live was strong and it was then I decided to learn what Jesus said to those who were healed by him, so I began reading the 4 Gospels and focused on every healing story. Here are 2 things I found that stick out the most.

#1- Jesus most often said, ‘your’ faith has made you whole and, in His own town, Jesus could only heal a few because they lacked ‘faith’ That’s how important ‘our faith is to our own Divine healing.

#2- Those who desired Divine healing were seeking it, climbing a mountain for it, tearing a hole in the roof to get to him or pressing through a crowd just to touch him; they were not sitting on their ‘couch of discontent’ hoping he would stop over and heal them. They were actively seeking healing.

"I received my Divine healing from bladder cancer after I created a 21 day health sabbatical called the LIFE WALK. I came to Negril Jamaica’s 7 mile beach (where I now live). I was 59 at the time so I walked 59 miles up and down the beach reflecting on my life seeking Divine healing. I practiced 4 things I learned from JESUS.

#1- With GOD, all things are possible, all the time, wherever we are.

#2- We must pray, believing in our prayers.

#3- Faith must consume the one ‘receiving’ the healing.

#4- Some healings require prayer and fasting.

"Prayer and fasting calms our mind and spirit while resetting our body chemicals allowing healing and provides a great peace of mind and a sense of Gods Presence. It’s true, not everyone gets healed and it’s also true, not everyone dies early either.

"The main reason why some Christians receive Divine healing and some don’t is because being a Christian means having a ‘personal relationship’ with Jesus. Each of us are different in our obedience to God's Will and therefore we pursue His Will differently."

Imagine you're walking down the beach, and you come across a crowd waiting for Jesus to appear and teach them. What would he say? Would he talk about current religious and political conflicts, or would he speak about Love, Light, and Truth? Readers can join in for a walk with Jesus and listen to his words as he shares with them the Seven Messages from the Master. Each spiritual message reveals His teachings that will strengthen and guide anyone to a most peaceful life in Christ.

'What Did Jesus Say' contains over 500 Bible verses spoken directly by Jesus as recorded in the red-letter edition of the New King James Bible, organized by subject. There is no interpretation, opinion or commentary.

Terry Christian's ministry, Foundations For Life, is an online ministry dedicated to helping Christians worldwide. Their calling is to help all Christians mature in their relationship with Jesus Christ. H-E-L-P means Helping Everyone Live Peacefully in Christ.

This brotherly approach allows us to focus on our loving similarities as members of the whole Body of Christ, rather than on our differences in worshiping and practicing our faith, so common today from one church to another or one Pastor to another. The mission is to teach the Way by the Word.

Terry helps families and congregations, as well as clergy, come together, in love, as one body in Christ, in one accord, in order to perform a greater work for Christ. He is dedicated to creating the relationships that build stronger marriages, families and churches.

'What Did Jesus Say...The Seven Messages From The Master' is available in full color glossy print, eBook and Kindle. An audiobook version is available for Windows and Macintosh. Several bundled packages are available at the book website, http://www.wdjsbook.com.

Terry Christian is available for media interviews. Please contact PrimeStar Publicity using the information below.

Assault And The Abuse Of Power - Award-Winning Author S. Jane Gari's 'Losing The Dollhouse' Gives Readers An Inside Look At The Aftermath Of Abuse

Gari's book about child emotional abuse has liberated her from the past and allowed her to finally "put it down". She demonstrates that it is possible to recover and thrive, even after the deepest of betrayals

The major news organizations are filled with stories of sexual abuse. Bill Cosby's accusers now number in the dozens. USA Today reported on an assault by Josh Duggar. CNN and many other news organizations have reported on the story of Donald Dennis who perpetrated abuse on Boy Scouts over a period of 12 years - upwards of 1,000 times with a single child. There are so many stories of abuse by Catholic priests they boggle the mind. A new film starring Michael Keaton, 'Spotlight', chronicles the investigation done by reporters at the Boston Globe who uncovered over 300 stories of abuse by priests in the Boston area alone.

Regardless of the form abuse takes, be it sexual or emotional abuse, regardless of victim or perpetrator, all involve an abuse of power and a violation of trust. In Gari's case, that violation of trust came on two fronts. Her latest book, 'Losing the Dollhouse', reveals the aftermath of her decision to expose her stepfather’s advances. Surprisingly, her mother chose to support the stepfather. The book is a powerful narrative of Gari's journey to healing.

“I wrote 'Losing the Dollhouse' because storytelling is the way I process my own experiences," Gari stated. "My hope for the book is that it helps others in their journey to heal from past traumas. Stories help us examine emotional and sexual abuse and then move toward forgiveness, peace and a solid sense of our own inner strength.”

Three adapted chapters from the book were nominated for the Pushcart Prize. Unlike other emotional abuse books, Gari's work helps readers take three steps toward real healing, all based on the theme "Put It Down":

* Achieve Forgiveness—
Just put down the anger and move from acceptance to peace.

* Achieve Healing—
Just put down the hurt and move from examination to empowerment.

* Overcome Fear—
Just put down the title of “victim” and move from challenger to champion.

In addition to writing books, Gari also teaches workshops, edits other people's work and tutors children. She is available as a speaker on writing and publishing. Gari also speaks about topics related to her memoir: sexual harassment, emotional abuse, children of divorce, OCD, anxiety, anorexia and forging a healthy sense of self in spite of these issues.

She is also available as a school workshop facilitator.  Gari has been working with students as a certified English teacher since 1996.

'Losing The Dollhouse' is available at Amazon and other online book outlets. A portion of the proceeds benefit RAINN, a national network that provides support to victims of abuses. More information is available at Gari's website at http://www.sjanegari.com.

Author Janice Weinheimer To Appear On The Authors Show TV To Discuss Her Latest Release 'The Illness That Healed Me'

Janice Weinheimer, author of 'The Illness That Healed Me', will appear on The Authors Show TV to discuss her latest release. The show will run through December 22, 2011

Janice Weinheimer will be appearing on The Authors Show TV through December 22, 2011, to discuss her latest release 'The Illness That Healed Me'.

'The Illness That Healed Me' is the story of Janice Weinheimer's illness, finding healing paths, recovering lost memories of sexual abuse in her childhood, and learning to deal with all the impact that four major and two minor perpetrators had on her life. It is an account of surviving sexual abuse and how she learned to follow a healing path. And, in following that healing path, she encountered peace.

"I wrote this book," stated Ms. Weinheimer, "because I was guided to from within. I wanted to be a voice for survivors of sexual abuse. My goal was to assist those traumatized by sexual abuse and to encourage them to take on their lives and to do the healing journey. I knew, by following the outlined steps, their lives could be changed forever. They could move out of the lower vibrational energy of constant fear, pain, and ego sabotage and move into the higher, healing vibrational energy of unconditional, divine love. In the journey, they would discover who they really are and that discovery would lead them to their true purpose for being.

Ms. Weinheimer has followed a very long and arduous path to healing. She learned that the healing path does not have a finish line. It is one that she continues to tread and from which she continues to learn. She has discovered healing is a journey rather than an experience. And foremost in that healing is the necessity of forgiving any and all who had caused her any grief and trauma in her life.

“I think readers will benefit from this book,” Weinheimer continued, “because it will direct and empower them past the emotional scars and into an inner realm of spirit and guidance. Fears, anxiety, and threats associated with the ego will be replaced with love, joy, and finally peace of the heart. It will move them from being a victim to taking control of their life’s journey. Anyone – men, women, young or old – will be assisted in climbing to a happier and healthier life – no matter what the issues. It will change the way they look at life and the world. It will bring a new perspective and a new paradigm.”

Ms. Weinheimer's interview will appear on The Authors Show TV version through December 22, 2011. She is available for interview and can be contacted using the information below or by email at puggie37@yahoo.com. 'The Illness That Healed Me' is available at the author’s website, Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble online and at most retail outlets.
