How about two small children and a dwindling income? Add two small chilldren, dwindling income and a partner whose narcissism can no longer be denied? Add to this pile of life a prognosis of difficult recovery from cancer. These are the life struggles Diane Pomerantz faced and transcended. What her book, Lost in the Reflecting Pool, states to the reader is how, without dramatizing or over revealing, this writer's technique of adding detail upon detail works to bring the reader to finally, in the last pages of the book feel the full impact of her experiences. This book is a departure from so many that scream, rightfully so, some of the terrible experiences life can bring. Instead this reading experience delivers the reader gently through all the passages and only in the end to the extreme sense of what has been accomplished by Diane Pomerantz.  00:21:00soul-sciences Chatsnohealing,divorce,narcissistic partner,cancer,recovery from cancerWhen her partner refuses to back her during her prognosis of a difficult cancer, and with two small children, a dwindling client base and bills to pay, Diane muHealing without Forgivenesshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/soul-sciences/2017/12/11/healing-without-forgivenessWritinghttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/soul-sciences/2017/12/11/healing-without-forgiveness/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/soul-sciences/2017/12/11/healing-without-forgivenessMon, 11 Dec 2017 14:30:00 GMTHealing without ForgivenessOur culture demands forgiveness, even to the point of protecting pedophiles at the expense of their prey, our children. Nancy Richards, who experienced horrific abuse at the hands of her mother and her mother's partners, writes sparingly of the gruesome details but long and clearly about how forgiveness, especially premature forgiveness, blocked her own path to healing. She felt doubly victimized, as though she was not healing in the proper way unless she could forgive her mother. Only when she stopped making forgiveness part of, or a signal of, her own healing, did she dive more deeply toward clarity, peace and letting go.  00:22:00soul-sciences ChatsnoHealing without Forgiveness,Forgiveness Overdone,Not Necessary to Forgive,Victims Do Not Need to Forgive,Nancy Richards on Not Forgiving and Finding PeaceNancy Richards ran into wall after wall of people demanding she forgive her horribly abusive mother.

But then, their tracks are mighty dusty and the only way to track a Higgs Boson or so-called God Particle is through the trail it emits.

It is the job of our White Cells to taste (literally) the cells in our bodies to determine which ones are healthy and which need to be given the heave ho. But for decades scientists puzzled over why our White Cells did not recognize Cancer cells for what they are: invasive and parasitic. Now new research determined an extra layer of sugar on the outside of cancer cells fools our White Cells into falling asleep! They doze off after tasting the cancer cells and neglect to send the signal that fires our immune system into action.  So scientists have figured out a way to help: mow down the extra sugars on the outside of the cancer cells, so the White Cells, also called T Cells, do not fall asleep.  00:13:00soul-sciences ChatsnoCancer,Cancer Research,Cancer Immune Therapy,Sugars and Cancer,Sugar Coating Fools Immune CellsSugar coating our cells, sugar in our coffee, sugars everywhere.

Her earliest memories of her beloved mother, dead by the time Laura was two, remain lost in the distant past, but her memories of Wanda, the Wicked Witch of the West, Laura's nickname for the woman who became her step mother, remain clear. In her memoir "Resilient Ruins" Laura recounts her life under Wanda's weird command, the ways in which young Laura acted out her loneliness including a suicide attempt, with unflinching honesty. Lacking any sense of frilly sentimentality the memoir punches through our notion that a difficult childhood consigns that person to a life of failure. Instead, award winning author Laura McHale Holland grew into a successful wife, loving mother and to our benefit continues to write about life as a beacon for so many of us.  00:24:00soul-sciences Chatsnohealing abusive childhood,growing out of childhood abuse,evil stepmother abuse,neglected childhood no permanent scars,Learning to love after childhood painLaura McHale Holland grew up despite the interference of her emotionally disturbed step-mom, who Laura nicknamed Wanda the Wicked Witch of the West.

The authors also make their point clearly about how the Administration in situations of hospice and end of life care make unfortunate decisions on behalf of their patients. These decisions clearly rise from the Administrators belief in a system rather than in the human being standing before them.

At the same time the book never veers from being intensely human.  Although the Earth of this book has been damaged through we can assume human degradation, the dystopian feel is very softly handled. The emphasis is not on the environment and neither does Dreece waste time building a hugely different planet from the one we now inhabit. Instead he spends his considerable abilities pursuing narrative arc and character development. And these are what make this book such a pleasure to read.  00:17:00soul-sciences Chatsnofiction,the,of,science,cloudThe Man from Cloud 9 expresses much of the science of Dreece's long relationship in Silicon Valley and his love of all things science.
