Editor's Letter
You CAN break free from the ongoing cycle of trauma
Ahead of World Trauma Day on 17 October, I share two very important articles in this weeks’ issue: Childhood Fear and Mind-control Programming by brilliant author Lisa Catano, and Energy Psychology – hope for depression, by Veronica Haupt. She is the developer of ReCode, a methodology that combines three energy psychology techniques (EFT, Reframing and The Healing Code), as well as some neurolinguistic programming (NLP).
We look at repeating patterns and the working of our subconscious programming. Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) are now being directly linked to depression, illness, anxiety and addiction in adulthood.
Some of the other symptoms include ADD and ADHD, compulsive behaviour and an inability to cope with everyday life without medication, over-dramatised reactions to life and a lack of empathy.
Seeing that it is breast cancer month, we share Dr Brom's article on breast screening. He writes that this is amongst the most important topics he has ever written about.

Childhood Fear and Mind-control Programming
Table of Contents ↑|Lisa Catano shows how it is possible to take responsibility and break free from imposed fear to spare our children from the vicious cycle of mind-control programming.
Energy Psychology for Depression
Table of Contents ↑|I was one of those people who didn’t really think that the dark cloud that had always hung over my life and constant thoughts of suicide was depression. Even after a suicide attempt, I never realised I was depressed. The sad truth for many people is that if depression has always been a part of your mental state, it feels normal!
Turmeric and Ginger as Medicine
Table of Contents ↑|In Professor Ali’s experience, turmeric and ginger are the safest and most potent anti-inflammatory spices – and neither is too expensive if you shop around.
Breast Cancer Screening – medical controversies
Table of Contents ↑|I regard the information on breast cancer screening as amongst the most important I have written about over the years. Please take time to read it carefully.
Exam Stress Sorted
Table of Contents ↑|Are you chewing fingernails, taking long breaks in between study periods, eating more, exercising less, cramming more, and sleeping less? Sounds like exam stress to me. Normal life stress is compounded by exam stress and when unusual things happen just before exams, performance can plummet and parents become despondent at their petulant offspring. So what to do?
Watch out for Hidden Sugars
Table of Contents ↑|Sugar is ubiquitous in our food supply – we are surrounded by it and drowning in it. Learn to read labels and know precisely what you are looking for, and you will be able to navigate the turbulent world of hidden sugar.
