FREE ebook -- Holistic Self-Care for PTSD and more
EDITOR'S NOTE: How many times have NAASCA family members asked for help understanding, and dealing with, PTSD or
Dissociative Identity
and other problems.
Well here's a FREE ebook (a nearly 300 page pdf) that's been offered by Dr. Cindee Grace, a retired naturopath, whose only hope is that the work will be shared.
I've included a number of comments from other
professionals and fellow authors.
NOTE: The book is not intended as a substitute for consulting with your healthcare provider, and the author is not responsible for any adverse effects or consequences resulting from the use of the book's information.
We're hoping to have Dr. Cindee Grace as our "special guest" on one of our upcoming "Stop Child Abuse Now" talk radio shows. We thank her for the offer of her FREE ebook and welcome her to the NAASCA family ! |
FREE ebook "Holistic Self-Care for Post Traumatic Stress and Dissociative Identity"
by Dr. Cindee Grace
I'm Dr. Cindee Grace (retired naturopath). I am offering my FREE ebook "Holistic Self-Care for Post Traumatic Stress and Dissociative Identity" online to the public for free.
I encourage you to give copies (in print, as email attachments, as a posting or download
on your website, etc.) to as many people as you can. My book is a valuable, unique
resource from which millions of people can benefit.
Why am I encouraging you and others to make copies of my book? I originally wanted
my book to be published. For a year, I tried to find a literary agent. But the ones I
contacted weren’t interested. Then I spent another year looking for a publisher on my
own. But the publishers I contacted weren’t receptive.
Many agents and publishers would not consider accepting the first book of a noncelebrity
author. A few declared that a new book for people who survived trauma would
not make enough profit or would not interest enough people. They declared that opinion,
even though I informed the agents and publishers that at least 10% of the U.S. population
have a dissociative condition (such as PTSD) due to trauma.
Another factor in my book not being published was that trauma is a controversial topic
in the United States. For example, mainstream media coverage of trauma caused by the
Iraq war is censored. Mainstream media (including publishers) don’t adequately cover
not only war trauma but also trauma caused by child abuse, rape and domestic violence.
As you might expect, I felt disappointed that a publisher didn’t accept my book. But I
feel glad that you are now reading these words and can use and share my book’s lifechanginginformation. Reference endnotes appear at the end of each chapter. The
illustrations (by Brian Emerson) are used periodically throughout the book.
For eyesight ease of reading, I suggest you use the double-spaced version of my book.
If you wish to print the book from a computer file and want to use less paper, I suggest you use the single-spaced version (which has fewer pages).
I wish you the best on your healing journey!
Sincerely,
Dr. Cindee Grace

| Holistic Self-Care for Post-Traumatic Stress and Dissociative Identity is an excellent resource for patients, no matter when they were diagnosed with these dissociative conditions. Dr. Grace makes the subject clear and understandable. Her writing style is easy and engaging – alive with facts, recipes and personal experiences. This book is probably the single best resource for patients wanting a true, thorough naturopathic approach to posttraumatic stress and dissociation. I heartily recommend this book to both patients and practitioners. |
