Letters to Sydney: Every Day I am Killing Cancer, By Heather Jose, OTR

Posted by Dan Janal, Your Fearless PR LEADER | November 30th, 2007

Pitch reporters with our up-to-date media databases:

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: Survivors and their families that are searching for inspiration and concrete ways to be actively involved after being diagnosed with cancer.

Q: What is the book about?

A: LTS is my journey as a 26 year old mother diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer. After being told to ‘get my affairs in order’ I simply could not accept that fate, arming myself with resources this book details the path that I followed in order to be well. Using conventional treatment I also added nutrition, visualization, exercise and prayer to my routine in order to kill cancer. This book offers hope and empowerment as well as practical tips in an easy to read story.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: I am still alive and well nine years later after applying my focus to killing cancer.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: It is not preachy or sappy, it is real. It discusses real issues and how I made them work. It takes the reader through my cancer and leaves them feeling inspired to fight their own battle.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: Again and again I have been told by people that once they picked up the book they couldn’t put it down. Readers walk away feeling that they have gained perspective not only on fighting cancer but also on appreciating life.

Cancer-Free – Your Guide to Gentle, Non-toxic Healing (Second Edition), By Bill Henderson

Posted by Dan Janal, Your Fearless PR LEADER | November 27th, 2007

Pitch reporters with our up-to-date media databases:

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: Any cancer patient, caregiver or loved one related to a cancer patient or anyone who wants to avoid cancer.

Q: What is the book about?
A: Cancer is easy to reverse. All people need is information. They are not going to get it from their cancer doctors. There is just too much potential income for the cancer “industry” from each cancer patient. The only place they are going to get complete information on their options (beyond chemotherapy, radiation and surgery) is
from books, websites and newsletters which cover “alternative” cancer healing methods which can’t be patented.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: After losing my former wife to ovarian cancer in 1994 (actually to the treatment she received), I embarked on a mission to save as many people as possible from her fate. Starting in 1998, when I became aware of the vast amount of information available on the Internet about alternative healing methods for cancer, I began studying them. Every day since then, I have studied and written about cancer treatment. Through my three books, 113 newsletters, 35 workshops all over the country, and dozens of teleseminars and radio interviews, I have been able to help over 2,000 people recover from cancer — all types, all stages. Most of these people have discussed my regimen with me on the phone or by e-mail. About 94% of the people I counsel this way have become “cancer-free.” I now host a radio show called “How to Live Cancer-Free.” It is on the web ( http://www.WebTalkRadio.net) and two radio stations for four hours a week. My biweekly “Cancer-Free” newsletter is free. It is read by 9,500 subscribers in 59 countries. In short, I know more than just about anybody alive the “answer to cancer.” The same regimen I recommend to reverse it is effective in avoiding cancer. I know. I will be 76 in January 2008 and I am in perfect health. I do the regimen I recommend every day for prevention of cancer and all other degenerative conditions.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: Of all the cancer books I’ve read, mine is the only one which recommends a specific diet and supplement regimen which has worked to heal over 2,000 cancer patients. With feedback from my readers and from other cancer experts I have gradually perfected a combination which works for just about any person, any cancer, any stage.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: The audience for this information is huge. BookLocker, my “print-on-demand” publisher, publishes over 1,000 books currently. My book has been at the top of their “best-seller” list since the week after they first published it in June, 2007. I also offer coaching to people who have read my book. This can be by phone or e-mail — their choice.

The Taming of the Chew: A Holistic Guide to Stopping Compulsive Eating, by Denise Lamothe

Posted by Dan Janal, Your Fearless PR LEADER | October 23rd, 2007

Pitch reporters with our up-to-date media databases:

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: Adult males and females who are concerned about overeating and their weight

Q: What is the book about?
A: The Taming of the Chew helps readers clarify causes of food control problems and find ways to manage them successfully physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually – to be empowered — to feel happy, energetic, peaceful, and calm. “Chew” addresses the root causes of compulsive eating behavior and is not just another diet book. It is about loving and appreciating ourselves, relaxing, being peaceful, stopping self-defeating behaviors, enjoying life, freeing up energy, reconnecting with Spirit, and living in the moment with gusto. It is powerful, clear, amusing, beautifully written, and fosters a profound respect for self and for life.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?

A: I am the founder of Emotional Eating Awareness Month and have worked with people who want to understand emotional overeating and how to stop for over 25 years. I emerged from the adversities of being a homeless college drop-out, surviving multiple eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, severe obesity and binge eating disorder) and single-parenting three children to creating success as a Clinical Psychologist, Doctor of Holistic Health, author and national speaker. I have been noted in many publications, including “O” the Oprah Magazine, have appeared widely on television and radio and have spoken across the country and in Canada.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: This is the only approach that will truly help and readers respond positively to the idea of actual weight loss. They really do know way down deep inside what they need. My intention is to help patients and readers uncover what works for them and then to make a personal plan for changing their weight and improving their health. I empower each of them to do whatever they feel comfortable doing to tame their personal Chew. We are all different and there is no “one size fits all” approach to being healthy and feeling happy in life. I stress that each reader should take what fits from the book and disregard anything that does not. I urge people to follow their inner direction, their intuitive sense of what is truly best for them. I also urge them to approach this issue one day, one breath, at a time. You can’t do everything at once and if you try, you will set yourself up to fail. Then you will feel worse – more anxious – and you are likely to make a beeline for the refrigerator.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?

A: This book is not about being thin or depriving yourself of anything. It is about self acceptance throughout the process of healthy change. It is very hard for most people to embrace the notion that they are perfect just as they are but, at the same time, they are human and cannot do everything perfectly all the time. I find that folks generally want things to be clear — to be black and white. They often want to be told what the one thing is that they can do to feel in control all the time around food. This is not possible. Life is not black and white – things are always in motion, always changing. The goal is to know yourself as much as you can, to develop a loving and patient attitude towards yourself and to flow with the many challenges and changes that life brings your way without anesthetizing yourself with food. The Taming of the Chew helps readers to do just that.
