Wrestling with Ghosts
"Wrestling With Ghosts" summarizes and updates a growing literature that includes traditional cultural accounts, scientific research, and subjective reports about the uncanny sleep disorder referred to as sleep paralysis (SP). The book serves as an important tool to normalize the sleep paralysis experience by attempting to remove its often-publicized mystical and supernatural aura. Specifically, the book is a serious contribution to the psychological and social scientific literature as an example of behavioral/social methodology in clarifying psychological phenomena that can be misinterpreted individually or by culture as "paranormal." However, the book does not refute the very real phenomenology of the experience and is intended as a practical guide for recognizing and managing the disorder in creative and self-enhancing ways. Moreover, this work reiterates the aesthetic and creative power of uncanny dreaming regardless of its origin. This aesthetic dimension of sleep paralysis and lucid dreaming is part of mythical, shamanic, creative, personal and scientific multidisciplinary approach to studying and describing dream phenomenology. Additionally, this work provides a retrospective look at the history of this uncanny disorder in human evolution, its recent western medical history and its most recent empirical descriptions as so-called alien abduction cases, including a presentation of Jungian and Freudian mythical perspectives. The empirical data is presented in balance with traditional cross-cultural and folklore accounts of the disorder as well as in the context of numerous recent cases researched in conjunction with the long-term study. Part of the data presented includes a proposal about psycho-geographical and psycho-geomagnetic distributions of "ghost" stories, dream attacks, and other SP related phenomena. These geographical zones correlate with geodynamic areas such as the Pacific "Ring of Fire" region where an increased number of cultural name

Current Advances in Breast Cancer ResearchA Molecular Approach
Breast cancer is a recognized disease around the world with varying patient outcomes based on the type of breast cancer, access to healthcare and other factors. Survival rates for breast cancer are significantly lower in metastatic cases than localized cases. Early diagnosis and effective treatments for the efficient management of breast cancer are now in demand, as they help to prolong patient life. There have been many breakthrough developments in the molecular biology of breast cancer research in recent times. Advancements in diagnostic techniques (imaging and biomarker detection) for breast cancer have improved the screening of the disease and have improved patient outcomes. Despite these enhancements, the disease is still lethal for patients and the search for a cure requires a complete understanding of the disease.

Power to Heal Opioid and Alcohol AddictionRecovery Workbook
Those who use this workbook will be writing their own stories-as they respond to questions. This will help a reader recognize his or her journey from its beginning, just prior to addiction while also clarifying what is presently taking place in their lives. In this way it will be seen clearly within a reader's own responses a picture of where they have been. By revisiting the role of becoming addicted--and seeing the way out--will pave the way for knowing what is wanted going forward. The book also holds spiritual truths to fortify the "bonho mie"--the good footing of seeing clearly that being here is God's will. It also creates awareness as to how deeply and widely coping skills are needed. Once these are gained, inner strengths will grow and greatly affect times of being tempted to return to substance abuse.Following are benefits that can be gained through writing personal responses to the author's questions and educational offerings: 1) Self-understanding through seeing one's own life journey clearly;2) Guidance in building healthier relational skills, which can greatly reduce one's stress in life;3) Gaining the ability to identify "the triggers" for using; 4) New skills in setting boundaries, plus help with keeping these boundaries fortified;5) Support in embracing new coping skills that are protective;6) Spiritual truths that uplift the mind and buttresses the soul as one gives "space" to solace and peace;7) Joy in finding forgiveness for one's self as freedom from addiction unfolds. These advantages serve well in supporting people as they seek recovery from opioid use disorder and alcohol dependence. The book's bibliography offers further help by extending numerous additional resources for those who seek further education involved with substance dependency and recovery. This workbook exists due to a phone call from a doctor in Phoenix that subsequently found me putting everything aside for writing this book. She said, "Joy I am saving lives and getting people back to work using Suboxone. These patients also need counseling. Will you help me?" Dr. Edison had compelled me to do what I could to help people who are receiving Medical Assisted Treatment (MAT). I knew this doctor well after having worked with her for close to a decade. She practiced medicine with amazing knowledge, compassion, wisdom, and skill. I began counseling the patients she referred to me. Yet, in the depths of my heart, I recognized the best role I could play towards helping the doctor's patients. I have journaled for years and knew creating this workbook could provide a path for people to see clearly how to take responsibility for their lives as they write brief responses to questions posed. The workbook reaches people on all aspects of personhood--mentally, physically, and spiritually. Knowledge is gained but also hope. Dr. Edison now uses this addiction workbook in her practice with patients receiving MAT.
