Book SynopsisTHE NUMBER ONE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER NOW A MAJOR FILM, STARRING STEVE CARELL AND BAFTA AND GOLDEN GLOBE NOMINATED TIMOTHEE CHALAMET ‘What had happened to my beautiful boy? To our family? What did I do wrong?’ Those are the wrenching questions that haunted every moment of David Sheff’s journey through his son Nic’s addiction to drugs and tentative steps toward recovery. Before Nic Sheff became addicted to crystal meth, he was a charming boy, joyous and funny, a varsity athlete and honor student adored by his two younger siblings. After meth, he was a trembling wraith who lied, stole, and lived on the streets.With haunting candour, David Sheff traces the first subtle warning signs: the denial, the 3am phone calls (is it Nic? the police? the hospital?), the attempts at rehab. His preoccupation with Nic became an addiction in itself, and tTrade Review'Both takes on this story are riveting, brilliantly written, thoughtful, searingly honest and equally essential. They should be mandatory reading for every teenager and every parent of one.' * Daily Mail *'My generation experimented with drugs and, now that we are parents, we're caught off guard: we never contemplated having to face what David Sheff has faced. He writes with candour, courage and grace of his family's harrowing – and sadly not atypical – story. Beautiful Boy is an important book. It is moving, timely and startlingly beautiful.' -- Sir Richard Branson, chairman, Virgin Group'Those of us who love an addict – or are addicts ourselves – will find Beautiful Boy a revelation. David Sheff knows all too well what must be endured with faith, and his extraordinary book describes it better than anything else I've read. While painfully candid, Beautiful Boy is equally optimistic and powerful.' -- Martin Sheen, actor'An honest, hopeful book, coming at a propitious moment in the meth epidemic.' * Publishers Weekly *'An excellent book that all parents can relate to whatever their children's situation.' * Library Journal *'Moving, painfully honest, very revealing, it tells a story which just never gets told and which is extraordinarily important.' -- Rosie Boycott'A brilliant, harrowing, heartbreaking, fascinating story, full of beautiful moments and hard-won wisdom. This book will save a lot of lives and heal a lot of hearts.' -- Anne Lamott'Beautiful Boy is so beautifully written that it will come as a welcome balm to millions of parents and loved ones who thought they were making this journey alone.' -- Armistead Maupin

Book SynopsisIntroducing the Collins Modern Classics, a series featuring some of the most significant books of recent times, books that shed light on the human experience classics which will endure for generations to come.A single person is missing for you, and the whole world is emptyJohn Gregory Dunne and Joan Didion saw their daughter fall ill. At first they thought it was flu, then she was placed on life support. Days later, the Dunnes were sitting down to dinner when John suffered a massive and fatal coronary.This powerful book is Didion's attempt to make sense of the weeks and then months that cut loose any fixed idea I ever had about death, about illness'. The result is a personal yet universal portrait of marriage and life, in good times and bad, from one of the defining voices of American literature.Beautiful and devastating Didion has always been a precise, humane and meticulously truthful writer, but on the subject of death she becomes essential' Zadie SmithTrade Review‘It is the most awesome performance of both participating in, and watching, an event. Even though Didion does not allow herself to break down, only a terribly controlled reader will resist doing the same’ Independent ‘Ultimately, and unexpectedly for a book about illness and death, this is a wonderfully life-affirming book’ Observer ‘Searing, informative and affecting. Don’t leave life without it’ Financial Times ‘This is a beautiful and devastating book by one of the finest writers we have. Didion has always been a precise, humane and meticulously truthful writer, but on the subject of death she becomes essential.’ Zadie Smith ‘Taking the reader to places where they would not otherwise go is one of the things a really good book can do. The Year of Magical Thinking does just that, and brilliantly. Powerful, moving and true’ Spectator ‘A great book, a great work. Angular, exact, pressured and tough, precise as a diamond drill bit’ Nick Laird

Book SynopsisAre you struggling with attention problems, mood swings, food obsession, or depression? Whatever the issue, you have far more control than you realize. In Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind, Dr Georgia Ede reveals that the most powerful way to change brain chemistry is with food - because that''s where brain chemicals come from in the first place. In this provocative, illuminating guide, Dr Ede explains why nearly everything we think we know about brain-healthy diets is wrong. The truth is that meat is not dangerous, vegan diets are not healthier, and antioxidants are not the answer. Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind will empower you to:- Understand how unscientific research drives fickle news headlines and dietary guidance- Evaluate yourself for signs of insulin resistance - the silent metabolic disease that robs your brain of energy- Improve your mental health with a personalized plan to suit your own food preferences and health goalsDrawTrade ReviewDr Ede is one of the very few psychiatrists who understands the critical connections between food, brain metabolism, and mental health and who has the ability to communicate these relationships in ways that are engaging and accessible. -- DR JASON FUNG, New York Times bestselling author of The Obesity CodeMental health care is undergoing a paradigm shift, and Dr Ede is leading the way!

The origin of doctor comes from to teach, and student from the pursuit of knowledge.You need to be both to challenge and reverse decades of miseducation, but it is worth it.When curiosity becomes questioning the paradigm, to the benefit of your patients, then you are fulfilling both roles.Georgia Ede takes us on the journey to the root cause of mental health - poor nutrition. Historically through to practically, the broad and detailed issues of mental health are addressed and articulated beautifully. * Dr Gary Fettke, Orthopaedic Surgeon M.B.,B.S.(University NSW), F.R.A.C.S.(Orthopaedic Surgery), F.A.Orth.A. *This book should be on the list of anyone who is interested in mental health.

Book Synopsis'The most important and accessible mental health book in a generation. Truly life-changing.' – Osher GünsbergYour Head is a Houseboat is a uniquely hilarious guide to what goes on in your brain, from illustration sensation Campbell Walker aka Struthless.The only truth we really know is that we're going to spend the rest of our lives in our own houseboat (our head) so it makes sense to make that houseboat as good as possible. The houseboat needs cleaning and maintenance, and it shouldn't be weighed down by junk (our own thoughts and other people's opinions). It has an unreliable and overworked Sea Captain, and a zoo of animalistic desires below the deck who are really steering. But it's your houseboat, so it's probably time for you to cast away and set sail (is that even how houseboats work?) on a journey to understanding it.In Your Head is a Houseboat, Cam demystifies brain functions, mental health, emotions, mindfulness and psychology – but with less complex terminology and more bizarre metaphors. It's a book filled with illustrations, journal exercises and words that will probably hit too close to home. At its core, this is a funny, accessible approach to understanding your head and making it a nicer place to live.Trade ReviewThe most important and accessible mental health book in a generation. I’ve paid a lot of money for shrinks to explain things to me that Campbell Walker can communicate in just one picture. Combining his boundless talent for art and metaphor, Campbell unlocks complex self-help models that are truly life-changing. If your life is kinda shit and you don’t know why, read this book. -- Osher GünsbergA red-hot reminder that we're not experts at ‘life’ simply because we're alive, and that you can make your head a far more comfy place for you to exist in. Through abstract metaphors, relatable anecdotes and wildly specific cartoon characters, Your Head Is A Houseboat helps us identify our sore spots, triggers and internal hangups, with realistic steps for those who need this info the most. An honest and laid-back approach to mental wellness and personal development, showing us how to look at our minds with a welcoming curiosity and a willingness to learn – it's the antithesis of most of the fodder in the self-help market now. -- Lillian Ahenkan, aka FlexmamiAnalogies have been one of the ways I’ve made sense of the madness in this existence. This book is great balance of funny and warm, helpful and humorous. -- Adam BriggsCampbell Walker’s houseboat is the perfect vehicle to help you create a new relationship with the complex and often contradictory characters and places in your head. Not only do I expect you to thoroughly enjoy it, but I have no doubt the lessons you learn about human psychology and how to gain freedom from emotional struggles will be deep and lasting. -- Cassandra Dunn, Clinical & Coaching Psychologist

Book Synopsis"[This book] deserves to be in everyone’s library. . . . It’s loaded with great information, and it can save your life or the life of someone you love."—Dr. Joseph Mercola "This book is life-changing for those trying to understand their own bodies, or those of loved ones, and it’s truly transformative in the hands of medical professionals, especially young doctors."—Foreword Reviews Thomas Cowan was a 20-year-old Duke grad—bright, skeptical, and already disillusioned with industrial capitalism—when he joined the Peace Corps in the mid-1970s for a two-year tour in Swaziland. There, he encountered the work of Rudolf Steiner and Weston A. Price—two men whose ideas would fascinate and challenge him for decades to come. Both drawn to the art of healing and repelled by the way medicine was—and continues to be—practiced in the United States, Cowan returned from Swaziland, went to medical school, and established a practice in New Hampshire and, later, San Francisco. For years, as he raised his three children, suffered the setback of divorce, and struggled with a heart condition, he remained intrigued by the work of Price and Steiner and, in particular, with Steiner’s provocative claim that the heart is not a pump. Determined to practice medicine in a way that promoted healing rather than compounded ailments, Cowan dedicated himself to understanding whether Steiner’s claim could possibly be true. And if Steiner was correct, what, then, is the heart? What is its true role in the human body? In this deeply personal, rigorous, and riveting account, Dr. Cowan offers up a daring claim: Not only was Steiner correct that the heart is not a pump, but our understanding of heart disease—with its origins in the blood vessels—is completely wrong. And this gross misunderstanding, with its attendant medications and risky surgeries, is the reason heart disease remains the most common cause of death worldwide. In Human Heart, Cosmic Heart, Dr. Thomas Cowan presents a new way of understanding the body’s most central organ. He offers a new look at what it means to be human and how we can best care for ourselves—and one another.Trade Review"There’s only a few books a year that I think really deserve to be in everyone’s library. This is one of them. . . . It’s loaded with great information, and it can save your life or the life of someone you love.”--Dr. Joseph Mercola, founder and director, mercola.comForeword Reviews- "Heart disease is a national crisis, and the most common treatments don’t lower the risk of death in most cases. Rather than despair, Thomas Cowan meets these devastating realities with the firm belief that there must be another solution. Through many years of research and medical practice, he challenges the common notion of what the heart is for—to pump blood. Through observation, geometry, and scientific insight, he proposes that the heart is a hydraulic ram rather than pump because it uses suction rather than force to build the momentum of the blood. And he makes it clear that this change of perspective makes all the difference by exploring heart attacks, what they aren’t and what they are. The treatment Cowan advises in Human Heart, Cosmic Heart is personal and holistic (whole-body remedies), driven by the patient’s own life story in order to show the whole of the nervous system. The result is a refreshingly balanced approach focused on responding to the needs of the body rather than reacting to the problem experienced in the heart. Throughout the book, Cowan shares his personal journey of learning, making the book approachable and warm as well as logical and authoritative. By sharing his learning process, he conveys a deep understanding of the cardiovascular system and its needs. Cowan, a self-proclaimed doubter and nonconformist, brings a voice of skepticism and hope into a genre packed with dry, black-and-white thinking. His insights are relentlessly rooted in research, and he explains medical science in an accessible way, including clear diagrams and step-by-step explanations that move at just the right pace for educated adults without moving too slowly for medical professionals. This book is life-changing for those trying to understand their own bodies, or those of loved ones, and it’s truly transformative in the hands of medical professionals, especially young doctors.”“This book blew my mind. I will admit . . . I thought I was simply going to be reading an interesting memoir of a good physician. Instead, I discovered the most groundbreaking, unorthodox, outside-the-box treatise on the heart I have ever stumbled upon. If you have a heart and you want to live a long time, you must, must read this book.”--Ben Greenfield, author of the New York Times bestseller, Beyond Training; founder and owner, Greenfield Fitness Systems; www.bengreenfieldfitness.com“What happens when the medical profession views the heart as a mechanical pump? We get ghoulish surgeries, medications with horrible side effects, and soulless low-fat diets. Tom Cowan asks us to look anew at the heart; first step is the demonstration that the blood pumps the heart, not vice versa. From this observation comes a way of treating heart disease that is more effective, more gentle, more felicitate than conventional protocol. Part biography, part wisdom, part practical advice, Human Heart, Cosmic Heart will change the way you look at the process of healing and the miraculous world of the human body.”--Sally Fallon Morell, President, The Weston A. Price Foundation

Book SynopsisThe Ancients lived by a feminine cosmology of creation, where everything was birthed and dissolved through a sacred universal Womb. Within each of us, whether female or male, lies a holographic blueprint of this Womb of Creation, connecting us to the Web of Life. By awakening your spiritual Womb, the holy of holies within the temple of your body, you can reconnect to the transformative energy of Womb Consciousness and reclaim your sacred powers of creation and love. Revealing how we must reconnect with the Divine Feminine to rebirth the Divine Masculine and restore balance to our world, they show how, as we reawaken the powerful ancient path of the Womb Mysteries, we help return our world to harmony with the wild, untamed creative flows and cyclical rhythms of the cosmos.Trade Review“Womb Awakening gave me total body chills the moment I turned the first page. Here is a masterwork of beauty, power, and mystical truth--long buried but now rising as both women and planet Earth heal and assume their full potential and grandeur.” * Christiane Northrup, M.D., author of Godesses Never Age *“Womb Awakening is a magnificent achievement that gives new life to the vision of tantra, with women as spiritual power-holders and initiators who celebrated the womb as a treasury of knowledge and source of bliss, compassion, and liberating wisdom. With radiant prose, the book ushers us to the original altar and holy temple within us all, guiding us into the womb realm of magic, transforming power, and healing grace of sacred union with ourselves, our partners, and the earth.” * Miranda Shaw, Ph.D., author of Passionate Enlightenment *“A brilliant and heartfelt book, I believe this work has the potential to forever change our ideas about the womb. I was enthralled from the very first pages. A beautiful and timely body of womb wisdom that will be shared for generations to come.” * Rosita Arvigo, D.N., Sastun: My Apprenticeship with a Maya Healer *“An extraordinary book that is both a revelation and a priceless shamanic guide to the Divine Wisdom of the Feminine--obliterated and obfuscated by patriarchal religion for five millennia--a wondrous, generous, astonishing, deeply researched, and utterly extraordinary gift to women and men who are searching for the true meaning of the Holy Grail and the deeper purpose of their lives on this planet.” * Anne Baring, author of The Dream of the Cosmos *“Womb Awakening is a comprehensive and unrivaled guide to the hidden wisdom of the womb. More than just a book, it is an initiation into the sacred feminine mysteries, opening a portal to the possibility of embodying ancient insight. Allow yourself to be transformed by the deep feminine wisdom contained in this powerful book.” * Lucy H. Pearce, author of Moon Time, Burning Woman, and Full Circle Health *“Azra Bertrand, M.D., and Seren Bertrand have captured the spirit of this deeply important journey we must all go on at some stage of our lives. Together they compel, inspire, guide, and encourage both men and women into Womb Awakening. I highly recommend this book for everyone!” * Anaiya Sophia, author of Sacred Sexual Union *“The Bertrands have gathered a compendium of historical information to illustrate how we have lost our connection to nature. By relying upon ancient and reverent womb wisdom, we can move away from the current human crisis of separation that has been imposed upon us through a polarization of masculine consciousness. This book points the way to recover our wholeness through inviting the feminine consciousness of unconditional love into our lives as a necessary guiding force.” * Pia Orleane, Ph.D., author of Sacred Retreat *“Womb Awakening is both a mystery school and a portal. It is a reclamation and celebration of the womb as adytum within the temple of a woman’s body. Through story, mythology, history, poetry, ritual, and lush imagery, the authors deftly induct the reader into the heart of the feminine mystery. A stirring and heartfelt offering whose pages shimmer with wisdom and magic.” * Shonagh Home, author of Ix Chel Wisdom: 7 Teachings from the Mayan Sacred Feminine *“This book is to be read in exactly the same way you should eat dark chocolate: slowly, intentionally, and with complete devotion. Its pages are encoded with the wisdom of the ancients--the womb bodhisattvas and menstrual mystics--it’s a full-bodied remembrance of who we really are, which is so ‘bloody’ necessary when navigating these interesting times we’re currently living in.” * Lisa Lister, author of Love Your Lady Landscape and Witch: Unleashed. Untamed. Unapologetic. *“Azra and Seren Bertrand have woven together a convincing theory of ancient myths and practices to help us understand that womb wisdom has been honored and preserved throughout the millennia of time. The nonlinear presentation accentuates the necessity of a return to living by nature’s rhythms. Their work should become a model for understanding the wisdom and the depth of the Divine Feminine.” * Cullen Baird Smith, coauthor of Remembering Who We Are and Conversations with Laarkmaa *Table of ContentsForeword by Linda Star Wolf Preface: Love Letter from the Authors Introduction Cycle 1 Welcome to Primordial Womb Consciousness Spiral 1.

Book SynopsisNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! The Studies the CDC Refuses to Do This book is based on over one hundred studies in the peer-reviewed literature that consider vaccinated versus unvaccinated populations. Each study is analyzed, and health differences among infants, children, and adults who have been vaccinated and those who have not are presented and put in context. Readers will find information on: The infant/child vaccination schedule Thimerosal in vaccines Live virus vaccines The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine Vaccination and Gulf War illness Influenza (flu) vaccines Hepatitis B vaccination The COVID-19 vaccine Vaccines during pregnancy Given the massive push to vaccinate the entire global population, this book is timely and necessary for individuals to make informed choices for themselves and their families. Trade Review“Millions of people—myself included—initially believed the Covid-19 vaccine disaster to be a one-off, the result of a novel, rapidly evolving virus combined with a rushed therapeutic packaged in an experimental delivery system. Today I laugh at such naiveté. In Vax-Unvax, Kennedy and Hooker shine a blinding light on the appalling lack of research and blatant propaganda behind the entire inflated and ever-expanding childhood vaccine schedule. The authors’ painstaking investigation and rigorous analyses are rivaled only by their bravery in exposing the depth and breadth of the lies we’ve been told. As a physician who never dreamed of questioning the safety and efficacy claims of routine immunizations and who believed he was protecting his patients and his own children by endorsing them, I am humbled and enraged. Our government, the media, and the powerful and rapacious pharmaceutical industrial complex have deceived, endangered, and gaslit the public for far too long. I hope this explosive and important book finds a worldwide audience and becomes a staple in every pediatrician’s and parent’s library.”—Dr. Pierre Kory, author of The War on Ivermectin, cofounder of the Front Line Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance, cofounder of the Leading Edge Tele-Health Clinic “As the threat of fatal infectious diseases in childhood has dissipated, there has been a lagged increase in the intensity of vaccination for rare illnesses. Modern treatment and supportive care have taken much of the concern out of the infections on the childhood vaccine schedule. However, with the rise of hyper-vaccination, Kennedy and Hooker uncover a concurrent explosion of childhood allergic, immune, and neuropsychiatric illnesses. Massive systemic perturbation of the immune system with indiscriminate immunization has come at a sobering cost. Read Vax-Unvax carefully and keep it close at hand—this dawn of a new age in public health will be tumultuous for years to come.”—Dr. Peter McCullough, author of The Courage to Face COVID-19 “In this book, Kennedy and Hooker provide the complete, definitive demolition of the mythos and propaganda that tells the public vaccines improve the health of children. Not a plank of this false house remains by the end of this book. The lies are dismantled in cool, clear language void of bombast, which allows the facts, figures, and data to shine through, to a devastating conclusion. This is the book you can hand to people who are still in trance states about vaccines.”—Celia Farber, journalist and author of Serious Adverse Events “‘The Science’ is finally here in one place. If you want to follow the science related to vaccines and health problems, this is a must read. With over one hundred references, the actual harm being caused by vaccines is exposed. Parents, don't listen to an authority figure without doing your own research. This book is required reading for every informed parent.”—Paul Thomas, MD, author of The Vaccine-Friendly Plan and The Addiction Spectrum; founder and host of With the Wind: Science Revealed; cofounder KidsFirst4Ever.com “This clear, compelling, timely book lays to rest most myths about the ‘science’ and safety of many existing vaccines and exposes shoddy testing, shocking damage to health, and corrupt business practices. An important follow-up to Kennedy’s The Real Anthony Fauci.”—Naomi Wolf, bestselling author of The Beauty Myth and The Bodies of Others “While the CDC continues to refuse to do the type of vaccinated versus unvaccinated study that parents have long been demanding, independent researchers have forged ahead, and the results are now quite clear: unvaccinated children are healthier. In Vax-Unvax: Let the Science Speak, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Dr. Brian Hooker review that data as well as many additional studies comparing health outcomes between those who did or did not receive individual vaccines. This is an essential resource for the serious researcher and a valuable guide for anyone wishing to exercise truly informed consent. The graphs helpfully included with the discussion of each study covered speak for themselves. It is past time for the ‘public health’ establishment to stop deceiving the public with their proclamations of official dogma about the ostensible safety of these pharmaceutical products.”—Jeremy R. Hammond, independent journalist and author of The War on Informed Consent “In 1999, I gave a vaccine that caused such a bad side effect that it altered the trajectory of my patient’s life. Thus began my journey into vaccine safety research. This book is a great compilation of scientific studies you never heard about on the news. With easy-to-understand graphics and explanations of statistics, you can analyze data from clinicians and researchers from around the world. You may find yourself doubting the simplistic ‘safe and effective’ doctrine repeated by health authorities. You will find yourself more empowered to make vaccine decisions for your child.”—Elizabeth Mumper, MD, IFMCP, president & CEO, Rimland Center for Integrative Medicine “RFK Jr. and Dr. Hooker present the science that supports what I have personally witnessed in my twenty-five years as a pediatrician—unvaccinated children are healthier and have fewer chronic medical problems compared to vaccinated kids. Today’s parents, and a growing number of my colleagues, are now coming to recognize this grand irony in our modern pediatric health care system."—Dr. Bob Sears, author of The Vaccine Book and host of TheVaccineConversation.com podcast “Bobby Kennedy and Brian Hooker are tireless heroes on the front line of a great battle to protect our health freedom. Biomedical studies are being falsified and the masses are being deceived by health authorities, the vaccine industry, and a complicit media. Read this book and let the true science speak!” —Neil Z. Miller, author of Miller's Review of Critical Vaccine Studies “When I met Dr. Hooker on August 29, 2014, he was more than a decade into his relentless efforts through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to reveal not only the studies the CDC refused to do but the plague of corruption surrounding CDC whistleblower William Thompson’s confession regarding the censorship and fraud in the MMR vaccine trial by the CDC to cover up the fraud in the in clinical literature surrounding all vaccines. Stunned by the blatant corruption in Dr. Hooker’s presentation that day, Kent Heckenlively and I, in collaboration with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., began to write Plague of Corruption. Throughout 2019, Dr. Hooker and Kennedy collaborated to reveal much of the CDC, FDA, and NIH corruption in the thirty-four page foreword to Plague of Corruption that revealed manipulation of hundreds of basic research studies showing dangers of xenotransplantation, microbial contamination, and environmental toxins including mercury, aluminum, PEG, and the corruption of the agencies tasked to protect public health. Vax-Unvax is the result of their heroic effort to reveal the censored science and truth behind the role of a failure by these agencies tasked to conduct safety studies in three decades of liability-free vaccines and the resultant explosion of chronic disease and disability facing our world today. Given the massive push to vaccinate a new generation, this book is a must read supporting a moratorium on inoculations in favor of oral and mucosal immunization strategies.”—Judy A. Mikovits, PhD “In Vax-Unvax: Let the Science Speak, authors Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Brian Hooker have provided a deep dive into vaccine safety by looking at published data from independent researchers. The resulting review of vaccinated and unvaccinated children's health outcomes clearly shows the damage, much of it neurological, that blind adherence to the CDC's current vaccine schedule can induce. The studies highlighted are those that both the FDA and CDC have routinely refused, and continue to refuse, to do themselves. The official reason for not providing such studies is based on the erroneous notion that conducting vaccinated-unvaccinated evaluations would somehow be ‘unethical.’ Kennedy and Hooker demolish this argument and then proceed to review the safety of different vaccines, many that contain adjuvant aluminum or Thimerosal, the latter an ethyl mercury compound. Overall, for those trying to understand the often-confusing claims and counterclaims, particularly lay people, the book provides some badly needed clarity. The book also considers the current Covid-19 mRNA vaccines in context to the older childhood vaccine platforms. This is a particularly timely contribution in that the Covid-19 pandemic and resulting vaccine mandates have paradoxically served to make more people question the official ‘safe and effective’ mantra that tends to surround all vaccines: If the conventional vaccine platforms using compounds with aluminum and mercury are not safe, then why should anyone trust the completely new and largely experimental vaccine platforms developed for Covid (and soon numerous vaccines)? For parents it can be both confusing and frightening to consider the pros and cons of vaccines against childhood diseases: What if they make the wrong decision, in either direction, and their child is harmed? While many in the medical profession may not like the book because it exposes the outright deception of the pharmaceutical industry, the CDC and FDA, I strongly believe that many parents, or parents-to-be, will be grateful for the information it contains. Simply put, at the end of the day the ability to consider all aspects of vaccine safety in order to make an informed choice for one's children, or oneself, is an absolutely critical aspect of real health freedom. In turn, health freedom is intimately tied to the concept of ‘security of the person,’ perhaps the most fundamental of natural rights. Kennedy and Hooker should be commended for tackling this crucial issue in order to bring clarity to the mass of ‘dis-’ and ‘mis-’ information peddled by the health establishment and the mainstream media. If indeed the ‘truth can set you free,’ then this book is a huge step in the right direction.”—Christopher Shaw, neuroscientist and professor of ophthalmology at University of British Columbia, author of Dispatches from the Vaccine Wars “If there is only one book you read in your entire life, let it be this one! If you want the science to speak . . . then have the courage to look at the actual science, data, and truth found in the pages of Vax-Unvax. Arm yourself with the information that puts the power back into the hands of parents where it belongs, not in the hands of corrupt Pharma, captured government officials, and incentivized doctors spouting catch phrases with little to no evidence to back it up. RFK Jr. and Dr. Brian Hooker are the bold voices of truth, presenting evidence that cannot be disputed. The main purpose of a parent is to love your child and keep them safe. If you have not had the courage before, I boldly implore you to find the courage now, and educate before you vaccinate!”—Leigh-Allyn Baker, actress, producer, and star of the global hit Good Luck Charlie

From Rebecca Campbell, a writer, mystic, devotional creative, and visionary who supports hundreds of thousands of people to connect with their soul and weave the sacred back into their everyday life.It is for those who agreed at soul level to be here at this stage in history to lead this global shift that the mystics of the ages have predicted: the return of the mother and the rise of the feminine. Rebecca says: Rise for you, rise for me, when you rise first you rise for She. Many of us have spent much of our working lives "making it" in a man’s world, leaning on patriarchal methods of survival in order to succeed, dulling down our intuition, and ignoring the fierce power of the feminine.

Book SynopsisOne of the trickiest tasks we ever face is that of working out who we really are. If we’re asked directly to describe ourselves, our minds tend to go blank. We can’t just sum ourselves up. We need prompts and suggestions and more detailed enquiries that help tease out and organise our picture of ourselves. This book is designed to help us create a psychological portrait of ourselves with the use of some far more unusual, oblique, entertaining and playful prompts. The questions are designed to help us cumulatively appreciate how rich our identities are and how complicated, beautiful and sometimes painful our experiences have been. If self-knowledge is central to a wise and fulfilled life, it is because it teaches us which of our many—often contradictory—feelings and plans we might trust, in order that we can be a little more sceptical around our first impulses and less puzzled by the ebb and flow of our moods. We can understand where some of our feelings have come from and what might be driving our convictions and our longings.

Book SynopsisPsychotherapist Terri Cole teaches a simple but powerful truth: without healthy boundaries, you can't live an authentic and fulfilled life. After all, if you're always smiling and saying "yes" to everything, how is anyone else supposed to know you're burnt out, overloaded, and not up to taking on yet another task? This is especially true for today's women, who are often caught between cultural conditioning toward being "nice" and the need to protect their own well-being. With that in mind, Cole presents Boundary Boss, a comprehensive guide for any woman who wants to master creating and maintaining healthy boundaries. In Boundary Boss, Cole's proven methodology is based on her Five Pillars of Transformation for examining and adjusting your personal and professional limits. Each of these overarching themes branches into more specific lessons about mindful communication, body language techniques, and how to deal with the guilt, fear, or backlash that arises when finally setting a boundary. Cole offers an actionable tool kit of scripts, strategies, and practices that can be used in the moment, whenever you need them. "For every single client who has walked through my office doors, no matter what their presenting problem, boundaries and effective communication (or lack thereof) are at the root of their pain," writes Cole.

His unprecedented accuracy and success rate as the Medical Medium have earned him the trust and love of hundreds of thousands worldwide. www.medicalmedium.comTrade Review"Within the first three minutes of speaking with me, Anthony precisely identified my medical issue! This healer really knows what he’s talking about. Anthony’s abilities as the Medical Mediu are unique and fascinating."— Alejandro Junger, M.D., New York Times best-selling author of Clean, Clean Eats, and Clean Gut, and founder of the acclaimed Clean Program"While there is most definitely an element of otherworldly mystery to the work he does, much of what Anthony William shines a spotlight on—particularly around autoimmune disease—feels inherently right and true. What’s better is that the protocols he recommends are natural, accessible, and easy to do."— Gwyneth Paltrow, Oscar-winning actress, #1 New York Times best-selling author of It’s All Easy, founder and CCO of GOOP.com"Anthony is a magician for all my label’s recording artists, and if he were a record album, he would far surpass Thriller. His ability is nothing short of profound, remarkable, extraordinary, and mind-blowing. He is a luminary whose books are filled with prophecies. This is the future of medicine."— Craig Kallman, Chairman and CEO, Atlantic Records"Anthony’s gift has made him a conduit for information that is light-years ahead of where science is today."— from the foreword by Christiane Northrup, M.D., New York Times best-selling author of Goddesses Never Age and Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom"Anthony is not only a warm, compassionate healer, he is also authentic and accurate, with God-given skills. He has been a total blessing in my life."— Naomi Campbell, model, actress, activist"My family and friends have been the recipients of Anthony’s inspired gift of healing, and we’ve benefited more than I can express with rejuvenated physical and mental health."— Scott Bakula, star of Basmati Blues, NCIS: New Orleans, Quantum Leap, and Star Trek: Enterprise"How very much we have been moved and benefited from the discovery of Anthony and the Compassion Spirit, who can reach us with healing wisdom through Anthony's sensitive genius and caring mediumship. His book is truly ‘wisdom of the future,’ so already now, miraculously, we have the clear, accurate explanation of the many mysterious illnesses that the ancient Buddhist medical texts predicted would afflict us in this era when over-clever people have tampered with the elements of life in the pursuit of profit."— Robert Thurman, Jey Tsong Khapa Professor of Indo-Tibetan Buddhist Studies, Columbia University; President, Tibet House US; best-selling author of Love Your Enemies and Inner Revolution; host of Bob Thurman Podcast"Anthony is a wonderful person.

My daughters Sophia and Laura gave me his book for my birthday, and I couldn’t put it down. The Medical Medium has helped me connect all the dots on my quest to achieve optimal health. Through Anthony’s work, I realized the residual Epstein-Barr left over from a childhood illness was sabotaging my health years later. Medical Medium has transformed my life."— Catherine Bach, The Young and the Restless, The Dukes of Hazzard"My recovery from a traumatic spinal crisis several years ago had been steady, but I was still experiencing muscle weakness, a tapped-out nervous system, as well as extra weight. A dear friend called me one evening and strongly recommended I read the book Medical Medium by Anthony William. So much of the information in the book resonated with me that I began incorporating some of the ideas, then I sought and was lucky enough to get a consultation. The reading was so spot-on, it has taken my healing to an unimagined, deeper, and richer level of health. My weight has dropped healthily, I can enjoy bike-riding and yoga, I’m back in the gym, I have steady energy, and I sleep deeply. Every morning when following my protocols, I smile and say, ‘Whoa, Anthony William! I thank you for your restorative gift…Yes!’"— Robert Wisdom, Flaked, Chicago P.D., Nashville, The Wire, Ray?"Twelve hours after receiving a heaping dose of self-confidence masterfully administered by Anthony, the persistent ringing in my ears of the last year…began to falter. I am astounded, grateful, and happy for the insights offered on moving forward."— Mike Dooley, New York Times best-selling author of Infinite Possibilities and scribe of Notes from the Universe"He was the answer to my desperate prayer."The moment arrived when I had given up knowing what was next. Holding my head heavy in my hands, sobbing uncontrollably at the kitchen table, not knowing which way to turn, I realized I had finally hit a wall. Through the streaming tears and heaving sobs, I whispered what I vowed never to do: ‘I give up.’ I have nothing left in knowing what is next, I pleaded to the darkness. I prayed for answers."Calvin’s stomach pain had never ceased after a simple upper respiratory cold and stomach upset in January, during his favorite time of year: snowboarding season. Since then, it had been five months of consistent doctor visits, herbs and supplements, acupuncture and energetic healing work, hypnotherapy and homeopathy, psychology, medical tests and procedures, paperwork and phone calls, lab tests and consultations, medicine and vitamins, more tests, and numerous ER visits in snowstorms—all leading to a dead end and no hope in sight, with my son’s condition only slowly worsening over time."I had lost faith. I had lost faith in the medical system, in the human ability to be able to help, to have any answers. I was exhausted physically and emotionally, broken down by the relentlessness of my son’s undiagnosable stomach pain and no hope for healing. I had tried everything I could possibly imagine and more."At this point, I was told that it was all in his head and to try the ‘psychiatric route,’ as they believed there was no physical reason for his condition. I had exhausted every possibility over the months of exploration with many, many practitioners across the spectrum and even revisited some of them to ask, ‘Are you sure we have ruled out everything? Are you sure we have not missed something?’"I refused to give up."Although his unexplained stomach pain did not fit in any clear diagnosable box, and only continued to worsen, it was clear everyone else was done with him, as their bedside manners became unsupportive."Leaving a medical office one day, pushing my son in a wheelchair (because it was now too painful and tiring for him to walk much) down the long corridor of the medical center from which we had spent many, many hours over many months, my ten-year-old son looked up at me and said, ‘They aren’t on our side, Mom.’"Through the tears I nodded and said, ‘Don’t you worry, Buddy. I am ALWAYS on your side. I have not given up, and I will not give up. I am not done.’ I tried to hide the uneasiness and the look of ‘Now what?’"Not long after, I found myself at that kitchen table in despair, praying in the dark. My child was suffering every single day, moaning in pain every single day, and I was helpless, not able to do anything to help ease his suffering, despite the months of determined and persistent efforts. No one understood, no one had the answers, and as much as I knew that it was painful for others to witness, which many friends told me, it was more painful to live in the grueling experiences of a sick child in agonizing pain every day, only to have his condition worsen to being bedridden, with clouded mental faculties that prevented him from reading and doing math work or any work that required mental focus."Then, the answer to my prayer arrived through a text from my mother explaining she had found someone who I should check out named Anthony William. I looked him up on his website and I felt chills enter my body, chills of hope as I read through his website. I sent an email explaining my plight. Anthony William knew what was ailing my son within the first three minutes of our phone conversation, explaining that Calvin had a mutated shingles virus inflaming his vagus nerve. This explained the nerve pain and the lack of physical evidence in any blood work or other existing diagnostic tools. It also explained the reason behind the mental/brain struggle in Calvin’s reading and schoolwork."Anthony reassured me that this was a physical cause for his ‘mystery illness’ and was NOT psychological. Tears ran down my face—my gut instinct finally being acknowledged as true. He was the ONLY person who had ever been able to pinpoint so confidently, quickly, and accurately a direction for healing."Anthony proceeded to flood me with information that would aid in my son’s healing, which I vigorously wrote down. He was deeply caring and reassuring. He was available to me when I needed him for follow-up calls (even in the middle of the night), emotional support, and as my cheerleader to keep me going as Calvin recovered. Anthony understood the intense stress placed on our whole family as we endured the intensity of his painful illness for so long without any progress. He never failed in his delivery to be supportive and compassionate."Over the course of the next two months, staying true to the protocol, my son healed. He was back to being himself, an active, engaged, happy, pain-free ten-year-old boy. Five years later, my son continues to thrive without any setbacks in his health. I am forever grateful for Anthony for saving my son’s life, for restoring my faith in the human ability to be of help, and for supporting faith in my own inner wisdom when it comes to my gut instinct as a mother."It is clear how deeply committed Anthony is to his work in serving others in order that they may have the possibility to lead healthy, vibrant lives. He truly is a gift to the world."— Kristin Cassidy"Anthony is a seer and a wellness sage. His gift is remarkable. With his guidance I’ve been able to pinpoint and address a health issue that’s been plaguing me for years."— Kris Carr, New York Times best-selling author of Crazy Sexy Juice, Crazy Sexy Kitchen, and Crazy Sexy Diet"Anthony William is the Edgar Cayce of our time, reading the body with outstanding precision and insight. Anthony identifies the underlying causes of diseases that often baffle the most astute conventional and alternative health-care practitioners. Anthony’s practical and profound advice makes him one of the most powerfully effective healers of the 21st century."— Ann Louise Gittleman, New York Times best-selling author of 30 books on health and healing and creator of the highly popular Fat Flush detox and diet plan"I rely on Anthony William for my and my family’s health. Even when doctors are stumped, Anthony always knows what the problem is and the pathway for healing."— Chelsea Field, The Last Boy Scout, Andre"As a Hollywood businesswoman, I know value. Some of Anthony’s clients spent over $1 million seeking help for their ‘mystery illness’ until they finally discovered him."— Nanci Chambers, co-star of JAG; Hollywood producer and entrepreneur"Anthony William’s invaluable advice on preventing and combating disease is years ahead of what’s available anywhere else."— Richard Sollazzo, M.D., New York board-certified oncologist, hematologist, nutritionist, and anti-aging expert and author of Balance Your Health"Whenever Anthony William recommends a natural way of improving your health, it works. I’ve seen this with my daughter, and the improvement was impressive. His approach of using natural ingredients is a more effective way of healing."— Martin D. Shafiroff, Managing Director of Barclays Capital; rated #1 Broker in America by WealthManagement.com and #1 Wealth Advisor by Barron’s"Any quantum physicist will tell you there are things at play in the universe we can’t yet understand. I truly believe Anthony has a handle on them. He has an amazing gift for intuitively tapping into the most effective methods for healing."— Caroline Leavitt, New York Times best-selling author of Cruel Beautiful World, Is This Tomorrow, and Pictures of You"I had a health reading from Anthony, and he accurately told me things about my body only known to me. This kind, sweet, hilarious, self-effacing, and generous man—also so ‘otherworldly’ and so extraordinarily gifted, with an ability that defies how we see the world—has shocked even me, a medium! He is truly our modern-day Edgar Cayce, and we are immensely blessed that he is with us. Anthony William proves that we are more than we know."— Colette Baron-Reid, best-selling author of Uncharted, TV host of Messages from Spirit"In 2015, my previously healthy five-year-old daughter started to develop neurological issues such as wobbly legs, frequent falls, an inability to walk when going from sitting to standing, general weakness, and decreased strength. She was at the point of thirty leg episodes a day, and it was worsening week by week. We went to different specialists at one of the best children’s hospitals—no answers, other than a neurologist’s label of paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia. Being a nurse for ten years and my medical community not providing me answers about why my daughter was getting worse was a hard pill to swallow. It hit home too hard."At first, I was too scared to contact Anthony William about my daughter, because we hadn’t yet ruled out a brain/spine tumor, and I was so scared to hear the truth. But after some time, I got an appointment with Anthony, and he explained everything—that my daughter had a specific virus that he knew about in her brain. In that moment, I felt like I became a different person. Hearing the truth from Anthony William and having a protocol to follow literally changed me forever! I got hope! With my daughter on the protocol, my family and I started to see improvements in her. She stopped falling, was getting stronger, and her leg episodes were fewer and fewer! Now, a year later, she is the strongest she has ever been and can physically function like any six-year-old. I believe angels from above led me to Anthony William just when I needed him the most. Forever grateful!"— Justyna Siek"Anthony William changed by son’s life for the better in 2007. My son was lethargic, pale, and struggled with a chronic asthmatic cough. He had a lack of appetite and did not have energy to participate in much activity. After visiting multiple doctors in several different states without any answers except ‘asthma’ and medications to treat the asthmatic symptoms, I was fortunate enough to have a session with Anthony William where he gave me specific information about the source of my son’s problems as well as holistic ways in which to repair them. Nine years later, my son is a high-level athlete who is thriving in all areas of his life. It is hard to express the gratitude I feel toward Anthony William for his invaluable insight that directly led to my son’s amazing recovery into the teenager I always hoped he could be—active, healthy, happy, and enjoying life with a smile on his face and boundless energy!"— Eva Thompson
