Chicken Soup for the Soul: “Say Goodbye to Back Pain!” Book Review & Giveaway!!! 3 Winners!!!

Probably second to the excruciating pain of a toothache is back pain.  Unlike a toothache though that is usually cured after a trip to the dentist, back pain can last for months and even be chronic.  It can be debilitating and some conditions like herniated discs can leave one nearly immobile and in pain for months.  I suffered from herniated discs after the birth of my fifth child and it was one of the hardest things to bear.  I could not sit, I had to either lie on my side or stand, could not get on the floor and play with my kids and the pain and muscle spasms were insanely painful.  It lasted months and my normally happy upbeat attitude took a huge hit.  Thankfully, my back finally started to get better with physical therapy until it returned to normal.  I do know so many people who suffer with back pain and so when I received, Say Goodbye to Back Pain! from Chicken Soup for the Soul Publishing, I thought what a great idea.  A message of hope and inspiration is so important for those suffering from great pain.

Inspiring Chicken Soup for the Soul stories and accessible leading-edge medical information from Dr. Julie Silver of Harvard Medical School. Many people suffer from back pain. The lucky ones have occasional flare-ups and the unlucky ones have chronic issues. This book is filled with great advice on how to care for your back, recover from injuries, improve your mobility, handle pain, manage chronic problems, and maintain a positive attitude.

Inside the book you will find preventative exercises to ward off problems, with easy-to-follow instructions and diagrams.  Learn how to protect your body every day to maintain good back health, getting the right diagnosis, using your mind to reduce pain and injuries, picking the correct course of treatment and clear explanations and diagram to help you understand your anatomy.  You will also learn what to expect during physical therapy, surgery and other procedures.

“Chicken Soup for the Soul: Messages from Heaven: 101 Miraculous Stories of Signs from Beyond, Amazing Connections, and Love that Doesn’t Die” Review & Giveaway!!! 3 Winners!!!

I recently received Chicken Soup for the Soul: Messages From Heaven for review.  I have to tell you that having lost both my parents, I love when I see signs they are around me.  There is a yellow swallowtail butterfly that I see all the time and have consistently year after year, it appears everywhere and sometimes there are two, they circle around my kids, flutter right outside the kitchen window in the morning when I am making my coffee and they are right there whenever I am having a sad moment or am upset.

Well, when my husband brought in the mail he handed me two things, one was an envelope and the other a package.  I opened the package and pulled out the Messages from Heaven book and on the cover along with the title was a white picket fence with a butterfly which I thought was pretty neat but then I opened the envelope and it was a sizeable check that I had no idea I was receiving from an advertising account.  I stared at the check because it was exactly the amount that was needed for something, then I glanced again at the book and burst into tears.  I did not even need to read the book and it had made my day with just the cover.  I thought about how God and his angels work in ways to show us that they are watching over us and will care for us until we are all home again.  I am sorry if this is sappy and over the top but I have toned things down for this post so be thankful.

So I am sure many of you have experienced the loss of a loved one and perhaps you are wondering about where they are, praying for a sign they are near.  This book contains over 101 Miraculous Stories of Signs from Beyond, Amazing Connections, and Love that Doesn’t Die.  Read about Grace who never knew she had a brother that died when she was an infant until he came to her in a dream and became her guardian angel.  Michelle who was saved from a fatal accident by her late father who spoke to her and made her sit through the green light that kept her from being in the accident.  There are so many stories that really speak to us who have experienced or who have hope of experiencing a sign that our loved one is still near, still with us, watching over us always.

Recently, I was sent one of Chicken Soup for the Soul Publishing’s newest books from the Say Goodbye series.  I received Chicken Soup for the Soul: Say Goodbye to Stress and I was very happy because I think reducing our stress is so beneficial to good health.  I think most people can relate to being stressed and that they would be very open to ways to reduce the stress in their lives.  Author Dr. Jeff Brown a Harvard psychologist  is a champion of cognitive-behavioral psychology.  Everyone feels stressed out at some point in their lives. Many have trouble getting their stress under control and want help.

If you are familiar with the Chicken Soup for the Soul books then you know how much the inspirational stories can speak to us.  This book  shares over  twenty-four stories from contributors who explain how they manage stress in their own lives. Dr. Brown combines the wisdom in these stories with his own practical, easy-to-follow advice to help readers manage stress, whether it is from everyday life or from life-changing events.

I think everyone can benefit from reading and using some of the strategies explained by Dr. Brown for relieving and managing the stress that is in all our lives.  Learning to let go of stress is so beneficial to every aspect of our lives.  This book shows the reader how to triumph over tragedy, reduce stress in the workplace, manage finances so that they will not lead to stressful situations, manage stress in the home and share great ways to cope and reduce the stress with sleep, exercise, and even covers foods that help.  This book makes a wonderful gift for anyone you care about, including yourself.

“The Jungle Bunch,The Movie” DVD Review & Giveaway!!! 3 Winners!!!

MADAGASCAR MEETS HAPPY FEET IN THIS WILDLY ENTERTAINING

JUNGLE ADVENTURE!!!

THE JUNGLE BUNCH

THE MOVIE

AVAILABLE MAY 29, 2012 Exclusively at Wal-Mart
AVAILABLE ON DVD & DIGITAL DOWNLOAD
FROM UNIVERSAL STUDIOS HOME ENTERTAINMENT

OVERVIEW:  The Jungle Bunch is a delightful movie about a cute and loveable penguin named Maurice, voiced by Golden Globe® and Emmy®-award winner andNew York Times best-selling children’s author John Lithgow, debuting on DVD & Digital Download on May 29, 2012, from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.

The Jungle Bunch movie is the incredible story of how a Penguin’s egg fell off an Antarctic ice floe and somehow ended up in the jungle.  Adopted and raised by an affectionate tigress, Maurice is totally convinced that he is actually a tiger!  He divides his time between hunting, re-painting his stripes and teaching his own adopted son, Junior the Tiger Fish, his own special brand of hunting techniques.  Maurice, Junior and all their jungle buddies form a happy, go-lucky but rather dysfunctional family.

Ping and Pong, two penguins from Maurice’s native Antarctic village, are in search of “The Great Tiger Warrior” to save their village from an oppressive group of walruses. Their search leads them to Maurice’s jungle home, where they tell him of their plight.  Determined to help, Maurice, joined by Fred, a warthog convinced he lives in a musical; Batricia, the only bat afraid of the dark; Miguel, a more than primate gorilla; and Gilbert, a tarsier afraid to leave his limb, form a team and embark on an adventure they will never forget!

We received The Jungle Bunch, The Movie DVD for review and this movie is great fun for the whole family to watch.  My little ones love the hysterical characters like Maurice, the penguin tiger.  His adorable team of misfit jungle friends provide lots of laughs that will tickle the whole family.  There are 26 funny shorts from “Behind the Scenes” of the Jungle for added entertainment.  If you are looking for a fun, family movie this jungle adventure is a perfect choice!!!

You are probably familiar with Chicken Soup for the Soul books.  They are so inspirational and uplifting to read.  I was thrilled to be able to review one of their new releases, Chicken Soup for the Soul: The Magic of Mothers and Daughters.  What a great book, and so timely with Mother’s Day fast approaching.  This book is filled with 101 inspirational and highly entertaining stories about the special bond between Mothers and Daughters.  As the mother of a wonderful daughter and daughter of a wonderful mother, I can definitely relate that we are at the same time, very similar and completely unique.  They are spot on when they say the relationship through birth, childhood, teen years, adulthood, grandchildren, aging and every step in between can be the best, the hardest and the sweetest.  Seeing this type of relationship from two perspectives, birth, childhood, teen years and adulthood with my own daughter and reflecting on the later aspects of grandchildren, aging, and every step in between with my own mother, this book speaks volumes.  Such a great book to give and be given this Mother’s Day.  Mother’s Day is bittersweet for me because 7 years ago tomorrow, is when I lost my beloved mother on Mother’s Day.  Never take for granted the loved ones in your life and make sure they always know how much you love them.
