Coma: A Healing Journey, is a heartful and practical guide to non-intrusive communication with coma patients. Extending her husband, Arnold Mindell’s pioneering work with people in comatose and near death conditions, Amy Mindell provides step-by-step exercises to help family members and caregivers communicate with, and care for, patients thought to be lost in coma. The book helps to bridge the divide between the coma patient and concerned family, friends, and healthcare professionals while furthering the comatose person’s meaningful communications and inner journey. The deep relationship that comes from caring for, and communicating with, the person in coma, makes healing a part of the caregiver’s, as well as the patient’s, journey. Book Review 1: "A consummate guide for reconnecting with, and caring properly for, those we may consider ‘lost to coma.’ An absolute must for committed caregivers." -- Ondrea and Stephen Levine, authors of Embracing the Beloved and Healing with Life and Death Book Review 2: "Mindell’s approach to coma replaces the static image of a subhuman patient in a vegetative state with the dynamic vision of a person in an altered state of consciousness journeying into healing. The implications of this are nothing short of revolutionary and will have enormous consequences for persons in coma and for those who care for them." -- Michael Kearney, M.B., F.R.C.P.I., consultant in Palliative Medicine, Our Lady’s Hospice, Dublin, author of Mortally Wounded: Stories of Soul Pain, Death and Healing Book Review 3: "This practical guide will bring comfort to caregivers and family members of coma patients, as well as teaching them useful skills." -- Bernie Siegel, M.D., author of Love, Medicine & Miracles and Peace, Love and Healing

Offering a new view and a fascinating understanding of coma states, this hope-filled work explains technology-driven insights and describes practices with which family members and caregivers can help promote recovery. Exciting scientific discoveries are validating what coma therapists Dr. Pierre Morin and Dr. Gary Reiss have been teaching for years: that coma patients' awareness is both detailed and complex, and their chances of significant recovery is much greater than previously thought. Inside Coma: A New View of Awareness, Healing, and Hope describes practical, body-centered ways of communicating with coma patients, showing family members and caregivers how to enter the patient's inner world of experience to engage their will and power to heal. Advocating for a new, ethical sensitivity that gives patients in remote and comatose states a right to exist, the authors explain the newest developments in the cutting-edge treatment of coma patients through a mind-body approach to medicine and healing, placing these developments in the context of the changing field of consciousness studies. They teach, challenge, and inspire readers to a new level of understanding, compassion, and intervention, offering basic tools with which health-care professionals and family members alike can begin this remarkably effective work.

For most people, the thought of dying or caring for a terminally ill friend or family member raises fears and questions as old as humanity: What is a “good death”? What appropriate preparations should be made? How do we best support our loved ones as life draws to its close? In this nondenominational handbook, Richard F. Groves and Henriette Anne Klauser provide comfort, direction, and hope to the dying and their caregivers through nine archetypal stories that illustrate the most common end-of-life concerns. Drawing from personal experiences, the authors offer invaluable guidance on easing emotional pain and navigating this difficult final passage. With a compelling new preface, this edition also features an overview of the hospice movement; a survey of Celtic, Tibetan, Egyptian, and other historic perspectives on the sacred art of dying; as well as various therapies, techniques, and rituals to alleviate suffering, stimulate reflection, and strengthen interpersonal bonds. The American Book of Living and Dying gives us courage to trust our deepest instincts, and reminds us that by telling the stories of those who have passed, we remember, honor, and continue to learn from them.
“When I was thirty-five, my wife and I were both reported dead by the first paramedics to arrive at the scene of a seventy-five-mile-an-hour hit-and-run. My wife Marcy died instantly that day. With brain damage from a massive stroke and my body broken, I wasn’t expected to survive either.” So begins Rise and Shine, the dramatic story of Simon Lewis and his remarkable recovery from a horrific car accident. Told through the eyes of someone who has “lived through it” and successfully overcome the hurdles of the health insurance maze, Rise and Shine is a first-person account of unexpected tragedy and life-affirming courage, with lessons both medical and spiritual. Rise and Shine shows how much patients can achieve, beyond the limited horizons of insurance-based diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation, to attain maximum regeneration and rebuild their lives. An inspiring story about what it means to return to life after a near-death experience, Rise and Shine is, essentially, an exploration of the nature of consciousness itself, and an impassioned tale about survival and recovery.
