Summary

When pain interferes with daily life, find the latest advances on treating arthritis, migraines, fibromyalgia, and more from an authoritative source.   Mayo Clinic doctors know how pain interferes with sleep, work, social life, and simple daily life, and help patients meet these challenges every day. This book is based on the take-charge approach to managing chronic pain practiced at Mayo’s Comprehensive Pain Rehabilitation Center. Inside this book you’ll find thorough, easy-to-read information about the solutions we offer to our patients. Mayo Clinic Guide to Pain Relief is divided into three parts:  Part 1: Understanding chronic pain: To control your pain, you need to understand how it develops. Part 1 discusses the parts of your body involved in the development of pain—and why some people respond to pain differently than others.  Part 2: Treating chronic pain: Learn about the various drugs used to treat pain, why some medications are more effective for certain types of pain, potential side effects, and more. In addition, you’ll learn about other types of treatments that are available, such as pain-site injections, nerve stimulators and medication pumps, as well as alternative and complementary therapies.  Part 3: Managing chronic pain: Part 3 focuses on strategies for managing chronic pain so it doesn’t interfere with your life. This self-care section covers steps that you can take on your own to get yourself on course to a life with less pain, including details for designing your personal pain control program.

    One of the most basic and vital dimensions of the Christian life is the practice of prayer. Frequently our prayers begin with a petition or request, so the content of our prayers is informed by our circumstances. But what if the opposite were true? What if we allowed our prayers to inform our lives? What would our lives be like if prayer altered our living and began to shape the contours and content of our daily experiences?
    Gordon Smith invites us to learn three movements of prayer—thanksgiving, confession, and discernment—in order to be formed and transformed by prayers that seek God's kingdom "on earth as it is in heaven." Whether you are a beginner in the life of prayer or further along, this small book is a resource for deepening your prayer practice.

    Meditation has been credited for a myriad of great benefits to the people who practice it. It helps people do everything from overcoming addiction to attaining success and improving health.I say that meditation is even more powerful. You see, all these things are two-dimensional at best. They combine body and mind only, leaving out the third, even more powerful component of the self-called the soul/spirit.The thing that hardly anyone ever notices is that the chief cause of stress is an imbalance in the self. This self comprises body, mind, and soul. When you leave one out, you will struggle to be complete. Leave out more than one aspect of the self and—well, it will not be pretty.In this book, I have put together a complete guide to stress-free living by combining meditation with Buddhist teachings for total harmony in every area of your life. I have also incorporated deep truths about stress within the book. Some of these lessons include:The two universal causes for stress are unmet needs and a perceived threat. Every single stress or stressful situation can be categorized as one of those two things.When you are not being true to yourself, your mind, body, and spirit will always be at odds. When your life is in balance, you will always find the strength to overcome any kind of stress.Through meditation, you are better able to avoid letting your emotions suck you into the melodrama with which they come. This allows you to take a step back and tackle issues in your life in an objective and stress-free manner.To become truly spiritually enlightened, you must first find absolution for the mistakes that you have made. As you pay your self-imposed penance for your mistakes, your conscience will be cleared along the way, as will much of your stress.
