New Book, "The Lyme Disease Survival Guide,” Provides Strategies for Healing

United States of America (Press Release) May 13, 2008 -- A new book, The Lyme Disease Survival Guide, provides a single, comprehensive resource that describes conventional and alternative treatments, plus real-world, practical solutions for dealing with the lifestyle and emotional difficulties of this now-epidemic disease.

For those who have been recently diagnosed, The Lyme Disease Survival Guide gives sufferers a good "first resource" to understand what they are up against and start looking for answers. For those who have been struggling with the effects of the disease for some time, the book can provide new treatment solutions as well as insights into how to cope with the disease.

The author

The Lyme Disease Survival Guide was written by Connie Strasheim, a former flight attendant who suffers from chronic Lyme Disease and who had to quit her high-flying job when the disease started to affect her ability to work. Ms. Strasheim, determined to "get her life back" after she became severely ill, began writing a blog called “Lyme Bytes.” (http://www.lymebytes.blogspot.com/), where she revealed the results of her extensive research into various coping and healing strategies.

The Lyme Disease Survival Guide covers:

Physical strategies for healing Lyme Disease, including ten primary protocols for healing, detoxification, supplements, adjunct or supportive therapies, testing methods, and ways to discern whether a protocol is working.

Lifestyle strategies for healing Lyme Disease, including: how to optimize life circumstances while dealing with the effects of Lyme Disease, information on diet and exercise, how to live mindfully, manage relationships, finances, work and travel.

Emotional strategies for healing Lyme Disease, including how to eliminate the devastating mental symptoms of Lyme Disease. Some of the most common and troubling symptoms, for instance, are the loss of the sufferer's short-term memory, and "brain fog," both of which make everyday tasks a challenge - if not impossible. Cognitive and physiological strategies address both the conscious and subconscious mind, and harness the power of belief, thought and words for healing through visualization, prayer and other techniques for achieving wellness.

An appendix suggests the role of God in healing, and is based on Ms. Strasheim's personal struggles with - but ultimate belief in - a God who heals.
