by Dr Rav IvkerThe first authoritative and comprehensive guide for treating chronic pain with medical marijuana from a holistic family physician who has treated more than six thousand chronic pain patients with cannabis.While the number of patients using medical marijuana increases every year, misconceptions about cannabis and whether it’s harmful or dangerous still exist. In Cannabis for Chronic Pain, Dr. Rav explains the potential of marijuana’s capacity for healing anyone afflicted with chronic pain. Medical marijuana is a safe, non-addictive alternative to dangerous opiate pain pills. Along with sharing his own story of using medical marijuana to heal from a severe case of shingles, Dr. Rav guides you through the cannabis and holistic treatment for your specific chronic pain condition. If you are suffering from arthritis, back pain, migraines, fibromyalgia, menstrual cramps, IBS, Crohn’s Disease, anxiety, depression, or pain from cancer or its treatment, this may be the book for you. Dr. Rav offers step by step instruction on the benefits and appropriate use of medical marijuana. And he dispels many of the misconceptions. Did you know that you don’t have to smoke or eat cannabis for it to be effective? There are now patches and drops. We are entering a new age of acceptance and perhaps most importantly, as Dr. Rav highlights, it is now possible to create a distinct cannabis prescription for different types of chronic pain. Find what works for you and finally get the relief you need. Cannabis for Chronic Pain is the new, definitive guide for anyone who suffers from chronic pain.
Cannabis for Health: The Essential Guide to Using Cannabis for Total Wellness (Cannabis Wellness #2)
by Barbara Brownell Grogan Mary CliftonAn engaging, authoritative, and accessible guide to using cannabis for wellness. Including a quick-reference chart to key cannabis strains and their health benefits, this book is one you&’ll want to keep close at hand. Considered &“magic&” in ancient medicinal circles, cannabis has a true, documented history of healing. Not only does it contain the restorative plant nutrient cannabidiol, or CBD, which is gaining stature as an antidote for various conditions from pain and nausea to arthritis and post-traumatic stress, cannabis also carries some 100 other cannabinoid nutrients that heal, including the once-banished psychoactive but powerfully medicinal THC. Barbara Brownell Grogan and Dr. Mary Clifton, two experts on cannabis, give newcomers the crucial knowledge they need to begin their healing regimen safely. Because different strains work for different people in different ways, the cannabis plant is far from &“one size fits all.&” Cannabis for Health discusses the various types and potencies, and what healing benefits each offers. It focuses on some high-profile strains—including power-healers—how they address 30 key conditions, and how they have served others. As this is neither a cookbook nor a dosing book, it relies on testimonials by users and physicians to guide people in their choices.
Cannabis in Spiritual Practice: The Ecstasy of Shiva, the Calm of Buddha
by Will JohnsonAn exploration of the use of cannabis as a sacrament in spiritual practice • Provides instructions for using marijuana for the spiritual practices of spontaneous movement, ecstatic dance, sitting meditation, and gazing meditation, allowing you to open the body’s energies more fully and get closer to the Divine or your higher self • Includes a new translation of the Five Moral Precepts of Buddhism, adapted to include energetic practices and the judicious use of entheogenic substances as a legitimate support for spiritual growth • Includes access to 9 audio meditations With the end of marijuana prohibition on the horizon, people are now openly seeking a spiritual path that embraces the benefits of cannabis. Drawing upon his decades of experience as a teacher of Buddhism, breathing, yoga, and embodied spirituality, Will Johnson examines Eastern spiritual perspectives on marijuana and offers specific guidelines and exercises for integrating cannabis into spiritual practice. The author explains how the great Hindu god Shiva enjoyed consuming bhang, a marijuana mixture that would cause his body to make spontaneous movements. From these cannabis-inspired movements, Shiva brought the body-focused practices of dance and yoga to the world. Examining the spiritual path of Shiva, including the Sadhu tradition, Johnson provides specific instructions and protocols for using marijuana as a sacrament as Shiva did. He explores how to embrace cannabis for the practices of spontaneous movement, ecstatic dance, sitting meditation, and gazing meditation. He reveals how the ecstatic surrender to the feeling energies of the body in these practices is enhanced through the ingestion of Shiva’s herb, allowing you to open the body’s energies more fully and get closer to the Divine or your higher self. Exploring the Buddhist practices of calming the mind and grounding yourself in sensory awareness, Johnson shows that, while traditional Buddhist teachings forbid the use of intoxicating substances, Buddhists who use cannabis are not committing a cardinal sin--in following our dharma, we must embrace what best supports our spiritual practice. He concludes with a new translation of the Five Moral Precepts of Buddhism--what he calls the Five Precepts of Embodied Responsibility--adapted to include energetic practices using breath, interaction with the energies of nature, sacred sex, and the judicious use of entheogenic substances, such as cannabis, as legitimate support for spiritual growth.

Cannabis: A Clinician's Guide
by Betty Wedman-St.LouisCannabis is one of the oldest cultivated plants dating back 12,000 years and demonstrates medicinal properties including immune support, anti-inflammatory effects, and cancer-fighting potential. As cannabis receives regulatory approval in the United States, clinicians will need guidelines to prescribe medical marijuana for various health conditions. This book presents information to healthcare professionals focusing on medical cannabis. It is a science-based overview providing clinical recommendations and dosing guidelines for practitioners to advise patients appropriately. Features: Discusses the endocannabinoid system role in homeostasis, pain control, and regulatory function in health and disease Advises clinicians on cannabis use in patients with cancer; cardiovascular, brain, and liver function; mood disorders; and patients receiving palliative care Includes information on cannabis nutrition as well as the cannabis microbiome Features information on cannabis quality control for safe and effective delivery Cannabis: A Clinician’s Guide is written for clinicians providing a resource guide to help them assess the medicinal value of cannabis, answer patient and consumer questions, and recommend its use optimally. The book is divided into three sections covering cannabis science, use in clinical practice, and regulations and standards. It includes practical information on dosing guidelines and dispensary insights, personal cannabis stories, and an in depth look at the nutritional benefits of cannabis and how to use it in daily life. From the Author: "As a clinical nutritionist, I have been involved in the use of cannabis since 1981 while researching diabetes in India. Ayurvedic medicine listed cannabis as a beneficial herb with curing properties. In 1983, a Chinese medicine doctor in the Peoples Republic of China gave me a cannabis herbal supplement for sleep that he claimed Chairman Mao took regularly. Upon returning to the United States, no one would even talk to me about cannabis because of its Schedule I status. During an Antioxidants class taught for Everglades University, I included information on cannabis, but was restricted from including it in the course description. Cannabis: A Clinician’s Guide unveils deceit on this herbal medicine used for thousands of years providing insight into the science behind its use and how to incorporate cannabis into daily life, especially for those suffering from neurological disorders, cancer, and mood disorders."

Capire me, Capire te: An Enquiry Into Being Human
by Manoj KrishnaCapire noi stessi e come funziona la nostra mente è la strada per la saggezza. È solo così che potremo vivere felici. È qualcosa che non ci viene insegnato a scuola, ma che dovremo scoprire da soli. Il libro ‘Capire me, capire te’ è uno strumento che può aiutare chiunque a comprendere se stesso in maniera chiara e semplice, attraverso la pura osservazione dei pensieri e delle emozioni e l’analisi della loro origine. Attraverso questa scoperta tutti noi abbiamo la possibilità di arricchirci di una conoscenza che può migliorare la nostra vita. Solo allora sapremo affrontare le difficoltà che incontreremo sul nostro cammino e lo stress che ne deriva. Poiché le nostre menti funzionano allo stesso modo, capire noi stessi vuol dire capire gli altri. È una rivelazione che porterà armonia nelle nostre relazioni, l’ingrediente essenziale di una vita felice. Lo scopo di questo libro è quello di rivelare i tanti modi invisibili in cui funziona la nostra mente che, dietro le quinte della nostra consapevolezza, condiziona i nostri pensieri e le nostre azioni. In 26 capitoli analizzeremo quei paesaggi del nostro mondo interiore che accomunano tutti gli esseri umani: l’arte di ascoltare, il meccanismo della comparazione, i nostri condizionamenti e l’impatto che hanno sulla nostra vita, la natura della paura e del desiderio e come influenzano il nostro comportamento, i nostri molteplici bisogni psicologici e le ripercussioni che hanno sulle nostre relazioni, l’affannosa ricerca di amore che ognuno di noi intraprende, le svariate convinzioni che ci danno conforto ma che creano anche divisione tra gli esseri umani, la solitudine, le abitudini che possono degenerare in dipendenze, le immagini che abbiamo di noi stessi e come cerchiamo di difenderle, il dolore che impedisce alla luce del sole di illuminare la nostra vita, e così via. La bellezza di questo approccio è che non necessita di alcuna autorità, di nessun bagaglio di conv
Capital erótico
by Catherine Hakim¿Por qué hay gente que parece llevar vidas de ensueño? Son personas atractivas, pero también animadas, amigables y carismáticas. Los demás quieren estar cerca suyo. Todas las puertas se les abren. La respuesta, como explica este libro, es el poder del capital erótico; el activo humano menos estudiado pero que es la clave de cómo trabajamos, interactuamos con los demás, ganamos dinero, triunfamos y llevamos nuestras relaciones. El revolucionario libro de Catherine Hakim revela cómo el capital erótico es tan importante en nuestras vidas como lo ricos, inteligentes, educados o bien relacionados que seamos. A partir de datos y estudios rigurosos, Hakim explica como este potente factor se desarrolla desde una temprana edad, cuando se asume que los pequeños atractivos son buenos, inteligentes y capaces. También estudia cómo a lo largo de sus vidas hombres y mujeres aprenden a aprovecharlo, cómo varía entre distintas culturas y cómo afecta todas las actividades humanas, desde las citas y la reproducción a la política, los negocios, el cine, la música, el arte o el deporte. Finalmente explora porqué la importancia del capital erótico crece en la cultura actual, tan sexualizada, mientras que, irónicamente, como virtud femenina sigue siendo marginada. Este libro ha de ser una llamada para que admitamos el valor económico y social del capital erótico, y apreciemos la belleza y el placer. Así no solo cambiará el papel de las mujeres en sociedad, permitiéndoles lograr un mejor trato tanto en la vida profesional como en la personal, también cambiarán las estructuras de poder, las grandes empresas, la industria del sexo, la administración, el matrimonio, la educación y casi todo lo que hacemos. «Hakim tiene toda la razón, es más, su libro debería ser material obligatoria para las chicas en los colegios. Porque explica algo importante que las madres han tenido miedo de decirle a sus hijas para no perjudicar su inteligencia: que puede ser feminista, que puedes ser fuerte e independiente e inteligente, y que puedes llevar un vestido elegante y unos tacones al mismo tiempo.» Bryony Gordon, Daily Telegraph
