The book will be based on the public record, on interviews she has given in the past, and on fresh interviews with her and members of her circle.

Book Synopsis It's Conceivable! by : Lynsi Eastburn

Download or read book It's Conceivable! written by Lynsi Eastburn. This book was released on 2017-08-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back Cover: "I just know there's a baby there... I just know it!... These words are ever familiar to Board Certified Hypnotherapist and Instructor Lynsi Eastburn. Edana Lynne was conceived naturally in 2003, after her mom, Jennifer Harris, underwent just one hypnotherapy session with Eastburn. Even after 11 years of infertility marked by dozens of medical procedures and drugs, Edie's mom "knew there was a baby there." Eastburn believed her. Today, 2-year-old Edie is eagerly awaiting the arrival of her baby brother, due in November 2006. (2nd Edition Update: Edie's little brother Evan arrived safely into the world; the two are now 14 and 11-years-old.) This book was written to provide hope to those struggling with the heartbreaking issue of infertility. The efficacy of hypnosis and hypnotherapy for fertility has only recently come to light, with the first edition of this book (2006) contributing to the expansion of awareness on a global level. It's Conceivable! is not a self-hypnosis book, in that it is not designed to teach self-hypnosis techniques. Nor is it a "how-to" manual for therapists. This book addresses what hypnosis really is, and the many ways it can help with fertility issues. The power of the mind is enormous, and hypnosis is the most direct and rapid route to unlocking its potential. Gain insight into hypnosis and hypnotherapy, the interrelation of the conscious and subconscious minds, the roles of the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the autonomic nervous system, subconscious blocks, etc., in specific regard and application to infertility. Firsthand accounts of client cases provide a "fly-on-the-wall" experience. To realize the strength and capacity of your own mind is to discover how it can help (or hinder) you to conceive. Hypnosis helps to get your mind on your side.

Book excerpt: The award-winning New York Times bestseller about the American women who secretly served as codebreakers during World War II--a "prodigiously researched and engrossing" (New York Times) book that "shines a light on a hidden chapter of American history" (Denver Post). Recruited by the U.S. Army and Navy from small towns and elite colleges, more than ten thousand women served as codebreakers during World War II. While their brothers and boyfriends took up arms, these women moved to Washington and learned the meticulous work of code-breaking. Their efforts shortened the war, saved countless lives, and gave them access to careers previously denied to them. A strict vow of secrecy nearly erased their efforts from history; now, through dazzling research and interviews with surviving code girls, bestselling author Liza Mundy brings to life this riveting and vital story of American courage, service, and scientific accomplishment.
