REVIEWS REVIEWS @ connectedness. Dr Larsen is at the forefront of one of the key health modalities today and into the future. THE NEUROFEEDBACK SOLUTION by Stephen Larsen, PhD Healing Arts Press, VT, USA, 2012 ISBN 978-159477366-2 (407 pp tpb) Available: www.HealingArtsPress.com; www.brumbybooks.com Ti discovery that the brain can grow new neurons gives hope for the neurofeedback technique's possibilities in overcoming neurological ailments, aiding physical and mental health, achieving emotional balance and fostering creative processes. Neurofeedback is a brain-based form of biofeedback, usually involving brain waves, and there are several schools of thought, each with their own protocols. Here, Dr Stephen Larsen synthesises the best techniques that the pioneers in neurofeedback have come up with, and combines them with other modalities such as breathwork, mindfulness, meditation and attention-control exercises such as Open Focus. He presents case studies across age groups, showing how neurofeedback can help in the treatment of autism and ADHD, anxiety and brain injury, stroke and Alzheimer's disease. He advises on how to recognise our brain-wave ranges and learn how to control our mental states with a view to these essential minerals. Wall points out key reasons why the modern diet contains fewer minerals: destruction of organic matter by ploughing, use of acidic fertilisers, refining processes (salt, sugar, grain), acid rain, trans- fats and poorly absorbable supplements. He notes that recommended daily doses of minerals are set way too low, based on data collected 50 years ago when our food was less industrialised and processed. He takes aim at the unsustainable health system, the processed food industry, Big Pharma, Big Biotech, and government authorities more concerned with making a show of food "safety" rather than its actual nutritional value. There's enough positive, detailed and actionable information in Wall's book for anyone seeking good health. NATURE’S POWER by Terry Wall XLibris, Gordon, NSW, Australia, 2011 ISBN 978-1-4653-5857-8 (210pp tpb) Available: www.in-syncminerals.com; www.xlibris.com.au Hs early days spent on a farm ina mineral-deficient part of New Zealand's lower North Island—run by his parents who had an innate sense for their animals’ nutritional needs— were what informed and ultimately inspired IT and agricultural consultant Terry Wall to spend over 25 years researching minerals and trace elements. What worked for the soil and the animals would surely work for people—and it did! From his new base in Australia, Wall went on to develop a line of specially balanced nutrients to replace those missing from the modern western diet (see his website www.in-syncminerals.com). In Nature's Power, Wall reminds us of the critical importance of minerals in heart and brain function, memory, DNA integrity, physical energy, body shape and immune system strength. Vitamins can't operate and enzyme production is impossible without Nature’s Power Jesus brought conscious- ness of grace into the earth. Because we wouldn’t embrace it, grace was rendered meaningless by 600 A.D. To achieve this feat Orthodox Christi- anity replaced it with their one lifetime version of ‘the good news’ by substituting ritual forgiveness for per- sonal responsibility. This book traces the history of how and why this hap- pened and what you must do to return back up onto David C. Campbell the path of grace from whence you came!
