Loss can occur in many forms, such as the death of a loved one, divorce, or termination of a job. Healing Takes Time is filled with 52 meditations and reflections to help people experiencing loss start a journey of healing. This biblical resource draws on experiences from Galagher's life, and includes a theme, relevant Scripture passages, personal illustrations, and practical steps to take toward healing in each meditation. Just as a physical injury takes time to mend, emotional and spiritual anguish require time, patience, and faith to heal. Perspective is often lost during painful times, and the Scripture passages in this book are a fresh reminder of God's love and faithfulness. Most people have heard about the stages of grief, but knowing the stages academically is quite different from knowing them in the heart. Healing Takes Time helps those suffering loss, loneliness, and sorrow prayerfully walk through the stages of grief step-by-step. Healing Takes Time is ideal for support groups or people working at their own pace. This short, practical, and focused book is a helpful companion for anyone experiencing emotional or spiritual distress. David P. Gallagher (www.agingsuccessfullytoday.com), is a professor, author, and Pastor Emeritus with five decades of pastoral experience. He teaches for the University of Sioux Falls and Moody Distance Learning and is the author of three previous books: Senior Adult Ministry in the 21st Century, Aging Successfully, and Havens of Hope.

Before Gordon Crozier was "Doctor" Gordon Crozier, he was chronically ill. He was so sick he couldn't crawl off the bed, so ill he could hardly eat, so cognitively impaired that for two years he lost the ability to read. He was desperate and his doctors literally gave up. But there was a silver lining in his sickness; it led him to find answers in the study of integrative medicine and how a person's genetic make-up can ultimately bring healing. Dr. Crozier's own sickness became a pathway to healing for others. In this groundbreaking book, you'll discover how Dr. Gordon Crozier today practices integrative, genetic-based medicine, specializing in treating people who have been sidelined by conventional medicine. Typically, his patient has tried every therapy, every prescription drug, and every treatment plan known to man--and they're still sick, sometimes to the point of immobility. Dr. Crozier sees recoveries so profound they literally change people's lives. Why do Dr. Crozier's patients feel better? Dr. Crozier uses a revolutionary new medical approach to fight disease and bring healing one cell at a time. He is a pioneer in using genetics-based medicine to get an entire picture of how an individual may attain health and prevent the effects of possible disease-related symptoms. In this book you'll learn how you too might find better health and wellness, one cell at a time.

An essential tool for healers, therapists, activists, and trauma survivors who are interested in a justice-centered approach to somatic transformation The Politics of Trauma offers somatics with a social analysis. This book is for therapists and social activists who understand that trauma healing is not just for individuals—and that social change is not just for movement builders. Just as health practitioners need to consider the societal factors underlying trauma, so too must activists understand the physical and mental impacts of trauma on their own lives and the lives of the communities with whom they organize. Trauma healing and social change are, at their best, interdependent. Somatics has proven to be particularly effective in addressing trauma, but in practice it typically focuses solely on the individual, failing to integrate the social conditions that create trauma in the first place. Staci K. Haines, somatic innovator and cofounder of generative somatics, invites readers to look beyond individual experiences of body and mind to examine the social, political, and economic roots of trauma—including racism, environmental degradation, sexism, and poverty. Haines helps readers identify, understand, and address these sources of trauma to help us bridge individual healing with social transformation.
