Throughout her thirty years as a naturopath, consultant, and educator in natural therapies, Judy Jacka has pursued a quest to understand the inner or subjective causes for disease. In her clinical practice in Australia, she combines Esoteric Healing based on her metaphysical studies with natural therapies. Her latest book is a synthesis of natural therapies and Esoteric Healing written with the aim of inspiring healers and patients to become truly holistic. The book is divided into two sections with both theory to introduce the reader to Jacka’s concept, and practice, which is loaded with case studies illustrating both the health problems and their solutions. The resolution of outer causes such as internal pollution, poor nutrition, and inherited predispositions are described in the theory section with an analysis of the role for mineral, vitamin, herbal, and homeopathic treatment. The theory section then delineates the inner causes involving the etheric/energy body and chakra disturbances. The meaning of soul as the main healing factor is explored and explained. Inner factors conditioning health and disease include those subtle states of consciousness that condition the chakras and electromagnetic fields underlying our physical organs. Part 2 is divided into sections that correlate to the main systems of the body such as the immune system, gastrointestinal system, circulatory system, and nervous system. The case histories for each section describe both the physical remedies and subtle healing techniques used and the subsequent progress of each client. *Contains numerous practical exercises to promote truly holistic healing *Judy Jacka, with over 30 years experiences, presents a system for understanding and treating both the inner and outer causes of disease

Self-healing is a well-known phenomenon in nature: a broken bone merges after some time and if skin is damaged, the wound will stop bleeding and heals again. This concept can be mimicked in order to create polymeric materials with the ability to regenerate after they have suffered degradation or wear. Already realized applications are used in aerospace engineering, and current research in this fascinating field shows how different self-healing mechanisms proven successful by nature can be adapted to produce even more versatile materials. The book combines the knowledge of an international panel of experts in the field and provides the reader with chemical and physical concepts for self-healing polymers, including aspects of biomimetic processes of healing in nature. It shows how to design self-healing polymers and explains the dynamics in these systems. Different self-healing concepts such as encapsulated systems and supramolecular systems are detailed. Chapters on analysis and friction detection in self-healing polymers and on applications round off the book.

Over the past two decades, there has been a major increase in research into the effects of the arts on health and well-being, alongside developments in practice and policy activities in different countries across the WHO European Region and further afield. This report synthesizes the global evidence on the role of the arts in improving health and well-being, with a specific focus on the WHO European Region. Results from over 3000 studies identified a major role for the arts in the prevention of ill health, promotion of health, and management and treatment of illness across the lifespan. The reviewed evidence included study designs such as uncontrolled pilot studies, case studies, small-scale cross-sectional surveys, nationally representative longitudinal cohort studies, community-wide ethnographies and randomized controlled trials from diverse disciplines. The beneficial impact of the arts could be furthered through acknowledging and acting on the growing evidence base; promoting arts engagement at the individual, local and national levels; and supporting cross-sectoral collaboration.

The book covers self-healing concepts for all important material classes and their applications: polymers, ceramics, non-metallic and metallic coatings, alloys, nanocomposites, concretes and cements, as well as ionomers. Beginning with the inspiration from biological self-healing, its mimickry and conceptual transfer into approaches for the self-repair of artificially created materials, this book explains the strategies and mechanisms for the readers' basic understanding, then covers the different material classes and suitable self-healing concepts, giving examples for their application in practical situations. As the first book in this swiftly growing research field, it is of great interest to readers from many scientific and engineering disciplines, such as physics and chemistry, civil, architectural, mechanical, electronics and aerospace engineering.
