Chronic Disease

In I'm Not Dead Yet, Joey Lott explains the way in which any one of us can take the painful experience of chronic illness and, within it, discover an incredible gift that can free us from all of the anxiety and fear and hopelessness of the past. In learning to both face up to and accept whatever experience, however horrible, comes our way, we can find a true freedom and peace inside our hearts. Without the resistance to experiences, we are free to live an unburdened life with all the myriad of benefits it entails.

Living Better While Living with Pain offers practical advice from someone who has learned to live with pain without becoming captive to it. Beginning with a discussion of the ways in which chronic pain is experienced differently from short-term pain, the book offers useful suggestions for approaches to pain management and pain relief appropriate for anyone experiencing pain from surgery, fibromyalgia, thoracic outlet syndrome, arthritis, cancer, back pain, or other chronically painful conditions.
