Selvhjelp ved tinnitus - Hvordan mestre plagsom oresus | by Stein Thomassen Jan. 03, 2012 | Free! | 26202 words | Read a sample |
| Author bio: Stein Thomassen er kunnskapsformidler med forkjærlighet for tinnitus og lydoverfølsomhet. Imidlertid bruker han mest tid på å lære seniorer å bruke PC og internett. I 2006 etablerte han nettstedet www.tinnitus-tips.no. Her finnes norsk oversettelse av viktige tinnitus-autoriteter som Pawel Jastreboff, Jonathan Hazell og Stephen Nagler. Dessuten en del egenproduserte opplysningsartikler, samt noen av arbeidene til Eva-Signe Falkenberg og Siri Skollerud. I 2007 utga han "Dr. Stephen Naglers Tinnitus-bok" for å få fram informasjon til de som ikke benyttet internett. Siden slutten av 2007 har han vært fast foreleser ved tinnitus-oppholdene ved Landaasen Rehab og ved opplæring av tinnitus-likemenn i HLF (Hørselshemmedes Landsforbund). Han har også holdt en rekke tinnitus-kurs i regi av HLF Oslo. Han har fått opplæring i TRT-behandling hos Pawel Jastreboff og har tatt halvårig deltids tinnitus-studium ved Örebro Universitet. Våren 2009 utga han boken "Selvhjelp ved tinnitus". Den solgte 1.000 eksemplarer i løpet av 2 år. Nå foreligger den som gratis ebok. Høsten 2009 kom www.facebook.com/tinnitustips på luften som en nyhets-/tips-kanal. Steins varemerke er engasjement og lettfattelig ordbruk. Han bekjenner seg til tilvenningsmetoder som TRT og kognitiv terapi. Det betyr at han ser på problematisk tinnitus som et fenomen som i stor grad kan bekjempes med (nevro-)psykologiske metoder. Hans egen tinnitus plager ham ikke (selv om den er godt hørbar i støyende omgivelser). Likevel mener han å vite noe om hvor håpløst mange tinnitusplagede kan ha det, for han hadde store søvnproblemer og befant seg på bunnen av et sort hull i 4-5 mndr for noen år siden. |

| Author bio: Change Your Life in 7 Minutes! Is your life stuck in a rut that you can’t climb out of? Do you envy other people who seem to have it all and you don’t even have half of it? Are there things about your life that you’re not happy with? Do you think that you could have a better life if only you could hit the reset button? If the answer to any of these questions is “Yesâ€, then the 7 Minutes Read series is going to help you develop your life skills so that you create the life you’ve dreamed of. Changing your life sounds a big, time consuming task. The reality is, that like most big projects, it can be done in small steps. You can’t do it all at once. No-one can. But if you have the determination to make positive change happen in your life, and you can commit little small amounts of time to doing so, the 7 Minutes Read series of books is the key to a more successful future. While many books have many pages of theory on how to change your life, they often have very little in the way of practical ideas. They tell you what needs to be done in order to achieve success in one area of your life or another. They don’t always tell you how. That’s what makes the 7 Minutes Read series different. Each book contains a lot of food for thought, but it offers a variety of ideas of how to get the right result. Not all ideas work for each reader’s lifestyle so by highlighting several ideas most readers are able to quickly identify what will work for them and can get right to work making positive changes – and you can read it all in 7 minutes! Do you want to make positive life changes, or do you want to read about how other people do it? If you are ready to get start doing it yourself, the 7 Minutes read series is ready to show you how! |

| Author bio: I live thirty minutes outside of Seattle in the Evergreen State. Though the most absurd trees are towering above the Northern Californian coast. Went there last summer on a road trip and did some extended camping where I was warned, "the bums go". You know why they go there? Because of the view and the trees. All my works that are for sale are currently in the Amazon KDP program. All my free works are here to stay for the community to enjoy. My most recent work is "Amigosa Calm"-A spiritual adventure drama with a world wide cultural revolution mixed in. What happens in the modern age when a prophet-like persona shows up and starts performing miracles? Both my "American Epitaph" books pay homage to all the conspiracy/doomer/anti-establishment movements. They center around a contemporary version of the American Revolution and are set in Phoenix where I grew up. "Occupy Our Common Ground" and "100 Things We Can Occupy" were written for and in the spirit of the Libertarian movements taking shape in our world today. Favorite anonymous quote: "I am more than I seem to be, yet seem to be more than I really am." I got my degree in philosophy, love being lost in the desert, and strive to foster solidarity with other authors and eBookers. Please feel free to contact me. |

Reality Poem | by Frank Josey Sep. 14, 2011 | $0.99 | 1045 words | Sample 25% |
| Author bio: Apart from "The Forgotten Heroes", which was a special project for a late friend, my e-publications' main theme to November 2011 is the effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. This powerful mental illness wreaks havoc on our society, a society that rarely understands the impact of this condition. PTSD Sadly, the overuse of PTSD diagnosis has increased confusion and cynicism. I only address PTSD where SEVERE TRAUMA was experienced (battle weary soldiers or brutally abused children). Let's stop euphemisms re most returned soldiers - THEY SUFFERED SHELL SHOCK OR BATTLE FATIGUE. My PTSD was not caused by the "Puppy Love" experience, but from a brutal terror suffered by most children of returned soldiers who experienced the horror of combat (but were never treated for its effects). Thus, the baby boomer generation families still harbour many forbidden secrets. However,considered a failure by society in general, I am now living proof that there is hope for PTSD sufferers. I must emphasize that a top mental health professional must treat this crippling condition. When the truth is revealed (the buried emotions rise to the surface), you will lose more "friends" than rats deserting a sinking ship. Many arrogant people have laughed at my financial and social demise. For many of us, the cure is worse than the ailment (reliving the trauma)- but if you persist, you'll be granted a second chance. A successful man goes from failure to failure but never gives up (Winston Churchill). Self compassion, now THAT's a project PTSD sufferers can tackle. Until we forgive ourselves, we're just actors. Once we learn to truly respect and properly care for ourselves, then, and only then, can mature love for others develop. Loneliness is an ever present challenge for PTSD sufferers. Loneliness is Western Society's biggest problem, Mother Teresa once said, responding to an arrogant reporter (who expected abortion to be Mother Teresa's response). Accept it, embrace it - it'll end in greater character within. Other I enjoy drumming as a hobby, specializing in Big Band Jazz, Heavy Metal and Parade Drumming (Bagpipe Bands). I am a Management Accountant, having graduated from Simon Fraser University Burnaby BC Canada. I am over the hill but it's better than being under it. My motto: THINGS ARE NEVER AS BAD AS THEY SEEM. |
