Are you listening to the messages your body is giving? Your immune system is a powerful force that is designed to protect you, sending you signals when it is time to make an adjustment.The problem is that too often doctors tell us that we are "fine," or that our headaches and weight gain are caused simply by stress. These symptoms are not normal, and may indicate a current or potential autoimmune condition that can only get worse if not addressed. Focusing on tried-and-tested solutions to not only help you feel better, but heal the inflammation that is causing symptoms or disease, The Autoimmune Fix will teach you how to reverse autoimmunity before it's too late. 

In The Autoimmune Fix, today's special guest, Dr. Tom O'Bryan, incites a revolution against mediocre health and urges us to "wake up" by no longer accepting that our unfavorable symptoms or disease diagnoses are here to stay. Rampant chronic disease and autoimmune disorders are increasing and traditional medicine in the U.S. tends to treat only symptoms as they arise. With the empowering information set forth in this book, it is no longer necessary to sit back and accept the medical establishment's reasoning behind your weight gain, fatigue and digestive issues.

Tom O'Bryan, DC, CCN, DACBN, is an internationally recognized speaker and writer on chronic disease and metabolic disorders. He organized the popular Gluten Summit in November 2013. Dr. O'Bryan has more than 30 years of experience as a functional medicine practitioner and is adjunct faculty at the Institute for Functional Medicine. He lives in San Diego, California. He is the founder of www.theDr.com.

Paramhansa Yogananda lived (1893-1952) through two world wars. He taught yoga, meditation, and practical ways to uplift consciousness in the U.S. during a time of great upheaval-World War II. Like Buddha, Gandhi and the Dalai Lama, Yogananda taught universal spiritual truths. His best-selling book, Autobiography of a Yogi, sparked a spiritual revolution of yoga and meditation in the West.

If you could talk to Yogananda today, what would he say about the challenges we face?  Today's special guests, Nayaswamis Jyotish and Devi, are dynamic emissaries of Yogananda, bringing his teachings into focus for today and shine light on the real solution for today's anxiety: raising our consciousness.

 Authors and teachers, who sparkle with wisdom and delightful humor, Jyotish and Devi show us how to experience joy daily, without succumbing to the stresses from our modern lives. Each year they travel to Europe, India and through North America sharing Yogananda's teachings and blessing people with the practical and heart-opening path of Kriya Yoga.

Touching each person with friendship, Jyotish and Devi's clear, centered energy delivers spiritual insight with a delightful joy in people's individual paths. They offer a rare example of successful spiritual partnership, living yogic values through their marriage, parenting, and organizational leadership.

Jyotish and Devi exemplify the most honorable and effective qualities of Westerners who represent Eastern spiritual traditions: faithful emissaries of Yogananda and his lineage and respectful of the social customs where they teach; able to adapt ancient teachings to the modern world without distorting or diluting them.

your struggles intimately.

Based on her desire to foster community, intimacy, and connection, she has dedicated

much of her time to understanding relationships and communication and how they are

impacted by abuse. For her, how we are relating to others is crucial to improving the overall

quality of our lives. In addition to the lessons she's learned along the way, she has attended

various lectures and trainings to further hone her skills.

Her program, Beyond Surviving, has been specifically designed to change the way we

think about and heal from abuse. Based on her educational training, study of

neuroscience, and lessons learned from her own journey, she has successfully used this

program since 2007 to help her clients break free from the past and move on with their

lives.
