Book SynopsisIn this surprising and remarkably practical book, Dr. Skotnicki reveals the harmful effects of modern skincare habits and provides a step-by-step guide to preserve the microbiome, fight aging and develop beautiful, problem-free skin.Women, men and children are having more skin problems today than ever before. Sensitive skin prevalence has skyrocketed, and the number of people reacting to cosmetics is climbing. Why? Dermatologist Sandy Skotnicki argues that the cause is a key element of our contemporary lifestyle: the grooming and beauty habits that the advertising and personal-care product industries have encouraged us to pursue. Those miraculous cleansers, creams and balms we're buying to protect our outer layer may actually end up harming the body's largest organ. In Beyond Soap, Dr. Skotnicki argues that the best state for normal skin is the natural state—the one that avoids disturbing the skin's protective barrier and the bact

Book SynopsisDealing with a serious or chronic medical issue can be lonely and difficult. Find hope and support with this unique book that helps you navigate the complex emotions that come with health challenges and reminds you of God's love. Trade Review"When my husband was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in his mid-thirties, confusion and questions about a suddenly unknown future set in. How I wish we had a prayer guide such as Sarah Forgrave's Prayers for Hope and Healing to give us the words we lacked. The verses, thoughts, and prayers in this book are a balm for the soul. Whether you or someone you love is facing a medical crisis, this book offers truth and hope to anchor your heart and mind during these confusing times. With kindness and understanding, Forgrave guides you to the heart of the Father, who loves you deeply and reminds you He is near even though He may feel far away." —Amelia Rhodes, author of Pray A to Z: A Practical Guide to Pray for Your Community"I had no idea when I first received a copy of Prayers for Hope and Healing how very personal this book was going to be for me. But now that I find myself in a fight against stage 4 lymphoma, I realize what a gift Sarah Forgrave has given us all. This is a book that will help you pray in the midst of struggle and crisis when you thought no more prayers were left. It's practical and compassionate, and it will encourage not only to those who are facing illness, but also those who love those who are facing illness." —Dave Butts, president of Harvest Prayer Ministries and former chair of America's National Prayer Committee"As a family physician, I have learned that true health is more than just a cured disease or medicated problem. Medical illnesses affect our relationships and challenge our faith. Pain and strife cause us to ask tough questions—the same tough questions that Sarah Forgrave addresses in Prayers for Hope and Healing. If we are honest with ourselves, we all have asked these questions—or will. This book is real and honest and points us to the One who has the answers and true healing. If you are going through difficult medical issues or love someone who is, I would recommend these prayers of hope." —Andrew M. Cougill, MD"Author Sarah Forgrave understands the hard places of life. Her prayers give voice to our own struggles and help us connect with the One who can see us through. Prayers for Hope and Healing is more than a book to read once and put on a shelf. For me, it will be a well-worn volume with a permanent place on my bedside table." —Edie Melson, author of While My Child Is Away: My Prayers for When We Are Apart"After 40 years of making hospital visits, I will feel comfortable giving this book to others. Caregivers and those they care for are asking these questions—heart-wrenching questions that need to be addressed. If you're going through hard times, it's likely you've wrestled with many of the 44 devotional themes in Prayers for Hope and Healing. Sarah Forgrave's gentle manner shines in these pages, and her thoughts will touch the hurting and help them to realize they are not alone. Each guided prayer in this book is a prompt toward hope." —Jim Littlejohn, pastoral care minister"Sarah Forgrave's Prayers for Hope and Healing is a beautiful and tender expression of the inexpressible—when we can't find the words to pray because the need is so great. Birthed from her own place of pain and healing, the book Forgrave has created addresses the multiple appendages of a deep heart need with authenticity, vulnerability, and faith made stronger through adversity. Her sensitivity to include a breadth of potential concerns makes this book rise above others on the subject of prayer." —Cynthia Ruchti, author of 20 books, including Ragged Hope and Tattered and Mended"As I read each of the chapters of Prayers for Hope and Healing, I remembered so many of my former hospice patients. I found myself thinking how valuable a tool this book could have been for those patients and their families. The simplicity of the devotional thoughts are strengthened by the very personal prayers. I'm praying that many will find true spiritual strength and grace in difficult times as a result of this book." —Reverend Wayne Shidler, retired hospice chaplain"Prayers for Hope and Healing by Sarah Forgrave is a breath of fresh air for my weary soul. As a breast cancer survivor and pulmonary fibrosis patient, I have been through my share of medical issues. Sarah meets my feelings of fear and discouragement with the empathy only someone who has walked this path can have. At the same time, she offers hope and encouragement from God, who wants to walk this road with me."Sarah's kind words help me know she understands what I am going through. She helps me reach out to God when I'm weary by providing me with words to pray and Scriptures that offer me hope no matter what. As a patient with a terminal illness, this book will be my constant companion, bringing me comfort as I walk my final path to Him." —Kim Fredrickson, author of Give Yourself a Break: Turning Your Inner Critic into a Compassionate Friend

Book SynopsisTrade ReviewThis loving book comes from the heart of love of a daring explorer of the mysteries of the body. Open anywhere and be reminded how delicious it can be to simply take a breath. - Lorin Roche, Ph.D., author of The Radiance Sutras: 112 Gateways to the Yoga of Wonder and Delight and Meditation Made EasyIf I had to choose among the many books on breath and breathing, The Breathable Body is without question the one I would choose. While clarifying the anatomy, physiology, chemistry, and mechanics of breathing, Litman shows how breathing is a whole-body phenomenon of our dynamic, fluid organism. His depth and breadth of knowledge are present in each explanation and exploration, and if you are one of the millions suffering from a breathing, sleep, or anxiety disorder, chances are the information you need is in this book. - Don St John, Ph.D., author of Healing the Wounds of Childhood and Culture: An Adventure of a LifetimeRobert Litman shows how you can change your health, your mood, and your connection to all of life by changing how you breathe. Whether you struggle with breathing, need effective strategies for self-regulation, or want to more fully enjoy the pleasures of being alive, this book will provide insight and solutions to some surprisingly common health conditions. The Breathable Body is an essential tool for good health! - Sharon Weil, Registered Somatic Movement Educator, author of ChangeAbility: How Artists, Activists and Awakeners Navigate ChangeLitman draws on more than three decades of experience working with clients to bring together a resource accessible to everyone. What sets The Breathable Bodyapart is the connection it highlights between body and breath, and how breathing and movement are linked. Your doctor may not have told you about the benefits of breathing re-education. The Breathable Body does just that! If you breathe, this book is for you. - Patrick McKeown, Director of Education and Training at Buteyko Clinic International and author of The Oxygen AdvantageRobert provides a well-crafted paeon to the sacred and healing act of breathing; it is anatomy as poetry, required reading for anyone interested in the healing aspects of conscious breathing. - Karen M Gardner, PhD in Information Science, UC BerkeleyCombining memoir, breathing therapy, and inquiry into the dynamic movement of body and mind, The Breathable Body offers deep insights and practical instructions on every page. This is a highly relatable book you’ll return to again and again for sagely advice. - Matteo Pistono, author of Meditation: Coming to Know Your Mind and In the Shadow of the BuddhaRobert delivers a message in The Breathable Body that has the potential to not only improve your health but also enhance the quality of your life. He has managed to bridge the gap between cognitive understanding of the scientific knowledge of breathing processes while guiding his readers into an immediate somatic participation with the material. This book offers a transmission of intimate presence with oneself and a reminder that the sacred resides in the present moment. - Gael Rosewood, Continuum teacher, certified Rolfer, and CE teacher and mentor for both modalitiesConscious breathing has become a psychospiritual and energy-medicine meme, popularized in bodywork, yoga, and meditation circles to a degree that makes breathing so hyperconsciously conscious that it becomes even more unconscious. It takes a breath practitioner who has been through its many layers of morphogenesis, phenomenology, dynamic function, micromovement, and personal unlayering to teach you how to make your breathing more endurably conscious. Robert Litman is a true breath healer, explorer, and teacher. - Richard Grossinger, author of Bottoming Out the Universe and Dreamtimes and ThoughtformsRobert draws you into the world of breath like nothing I've read before! Whether you are looking for help for an ailment or want to enrich your life through breath, this book—steeped with rich resources to expand and explore breathing—is for you. - Bobbie Ellis, Continuum teacher and 500+ Experienced Registered Yoga TeacherRobert Litman takes us on a psychological journey, leading us through his own history with breathing and the metaphor for life that it has come to hold for him. Based on his hard-won wisdom, he guides us in practical ways that have helped so many—how to bring conscious breathing meaningfully into our lives. - Peter M. Litchfield, President, Graduate School of Behavioral Health Sciences, lecturer in respiratory psychophysiology, self-regulation science, and many other subjectsBreath spirals, listens, touches us on the inside, responds to kindness, tenderness, compassion, and gentleness, whispering its wildness into us. Others teach the science of breath, measuring and counting. Robert transmits the art and flow, letting breath lead us into the unknown. The Breathable Body offers a glimpse into the author’s love affair with breath, a quiet transmission into the most profound relationship we have. What a treasure this book is! - Roxanne Rhodes, Certified Yoga Instructor, Trager practitioner, and massage therapist
