  • How Not To Think about...A Virus Story

    In 2009 Barbara Morello contracted the Swine flu, or the H1N1  virus. It is estimated that the virus effected between 700 million and 1.4 billion people worldwide and killed between 150,000-575,000  people. Barb's story is very illuminating in the way the virus can be caught and the numerous interactions that led her eventually to be taken to hospital and  given very little hope of survival. What happened next was truly a miracle and relevant for today's times in many ways.

    I helped Barb write her book about her experiences and you can find more In God's Waiting Room online and at www.ingodswaitingroom.net

    Barb's life was transformed by her experience and she now runs a non-profit organization that helps women struggling with addiction. You can find out more about that at www.SeeHorseMiami.org.

  • How Not To Think about...Cancer

    Johann Ilgenfritz was given 6 -12 months to live when cancer exploded in his body. But Johann, a photographic journalist aged just 46, knew that there were other ways to conceptualize his situation. Rather than thinking "about" his plight, he decided to think "in" his plight -- questioning conventional views and the assumptions that often go with the diagnosis of cancer, or any disease. This lead him on a search for his own solution, which came through plant-based nutrition. Within three years Johann was cancer free and determined to help others with health issues. This led to him founding UKHealthRadio which now offers more than 30 experts providing varied perspectives about health.
