Akutmedicin og førstehjælp

OP IGEN er en beretning om en voldsom ulykke og gaseksplosion og er indtalt af forfatteren selv. En beretning om håb, afmagt, fight, kontroltab, viljestyrke og en helt ny virkelighed for en tidligere Miss World deltager, hjernetræner og Danmarksmester, som uforskyldt endte med voldsomme forbrændinger på begge ben, dropfod og PTSD, og som måtte gennemleve et lidelsesmarathon før tingene endte godt igen. I en søgen efter meningsfuldhed med ulykken, er bogen skrevet som den bog Tine Bay gerne selv ville have haft ved hånden undervejs på vej op igen, og er skrevet med både humor, styrke og autentisk ærlighed. Bogens kerne er en fortælling om ikke at give op, selv når det er svært og at holde fast i sig selv og sin integritet og finde sin egen vej, også når det brænder på. Den handler om at det umulige nogen gange kan blive muligt.Vi følger dramaet omkring selve ulykken, forløbet under den marathon lange komplicerede hospitalsindlæggelse, retfærdighedskampen og kampen om at komme tilbage til en form for hverdag. Fra Camilla Martins forord: “Jeg har grædt undervejs i bogen, fordi jeg har tænkt at det Tine går igennem, ville jeg aldrig nogensinde kunne have klaret. Men Tine stod det igennem, med en fuldstændig ufattelig og ukuelig vilje, og med en så fin og skrøbelig tilgang til sig selv og den Tine hun lærte at kende undervejs”. Tine Bay bruger i bogen højlydt alle mentale redskaber hun tidligere har brugt – særligt i kraft af sin funktion som mentaltræner. Det er også beskrivelsen af et menneskes møde medhospitalsvæsenet på godt og ondt. En oplevelse der undervejs er både fantastisk, fortvivlende og medrivende.

An incredible memoir about one man's journey to heal from trauma through chosen family, friendship, and nature.AN OPEN FIELD PUBLICATION FROM MARIA SHRIVERBanning Lyon was an average 15-year-old, living in Dallas, TX. He enjoyed skateboarding, listening to punk rock, and even had a part-time job. But in January 1987 his life quickly changed after a school guidance counselor falsely believed he was suicidal after giving away his skateboard. Days later he was admitted to a psychiatric hospital, and what he was told would be a two-week stay turned into 353 days that would change his life forever.Banning takes readers through his fraught relationship with his family, the mistreatment he suffered at the hospital, the lawsuit against the owners of the facility, and his desire to make sense of what happened to him. We witness Banning navigate the difficult landscape of trauma and his daily battle to live a normal life. After years of highs and lows that include being adopted by his attorney and mentor, falling in love and grieving the death of his fiancée, and being sued by the same doctors who mistreated him, Banning decides to take control of his life and finds hope in the backcountry of Yosemite National Park, where he discovers new purpose in being a backpacking guide. Through friendship, nature, and eventually giving therapy another chance, Banning summons the courage to keep moving forward.The Chair and The Valley is a raw, gut-wrenching, and amazing story about healing from trauma and starting over. It is a exploration of the importance of chosen family, the restorative power of nature, and the strength it takes to build a new life in the face of fear and doubt.

The definition of inner peace: beyond the absence of stress In our fast-paced world, the thought of inner peace is more relevant than ever. However, it is a challenge to define this state precisely.

A glimpse of inner peace When we think about inner peace, we can consider a few key aspects: Self-acceptance: The state of accepting and loving ourselves, our strengths and weaknesses.The connection between mind and body: Recognizing the connection between physical and mental health, and striving to balance the two.Grounding in the present moment: The ability to live in the present moment without guilt about the past or anxiety about the future.Compassion and kindness: The ability to show compassion and kindness to ourselves and others.Acceptance of the ups and downs of life: The understanding that life is full of both pleasant experiences and challenges, and the willingness to embrace them.The benefits of inner peace Inner peace has many benefits, both for our individual well-being and for the world around us. Some of the benefits include: Increased happiness and satisfactionImproved relationshipsReduced stress and anxietyIncreased resilienceGreater creativity and productivity
