A book about transformation and healing
The simplistic blurb from the publisher's
PR flack about this book is "wrong": it's not about "positive thinking"
or "visualizations." The original working title of the book was "Healing
from the Pain of Growing Up a Hunter in a Farmer's World," but the publisher
shortened it. This book is filled with some of the most powerful and transformational
real-world techniques available, derived from neuro-linguistic programming,
to heal pain, drop away useless habits, and help ADHD people regain control
of their lives as well as their self-esteem. Of all the books on ADHD I've
written, this is the most practical in terms of its "you can do this" techniques,
and the most sophisticated. As well as an excellent book for parents, adults
with ADD, and other lay-people, it's full of advanced techniques for psychotherapists
and coaches. The book is even written in an embedded transformational language:
as you read it, you'll discover that you're seeing the world in a new way,
hearing new and useful internal stories, and feeling powerful and resilient.
Just the simple act of reading this book will change your life.

Solve your child's problems without
the damaging effect of potent psychiatric drugs which have known and unknown
side-effects and which will also act to dull your child emotionally and
intellectually. No parent should put their child on drugs and every parent
should research the facts and alternatives to the paradigm provided by
modern psychiatry (a very limited, and damaging perspective).
Every year in the U.S., over two million
children are given the drug Ritalin to combat Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder (ADHD). There are safer and more effective alternatives. Many
researchers and authors have found powerful evidence that a drug-free approach
works. The drug-free approach is always the best choice.
