Book list! (And medical school advice)

admin — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 00:37:29 +0000

This is an intro to great books on medicine.
If you want to read something fun, informative about medicine, I’ve put together a short list of recommended books. But also, for those who are applying to medical school, this summer reading list should be a fun place to start — and also should help you with your medical school essay and interview.

The house of god” by Samuel Shem
____________________________________________

These are some further books recommended by Youtuber Jason Pitcher. He wrote:

“Planning a Life in Medicine” by The Princeton Review. This book is one of the basics that discuss the steps towards making it into medical school and fully details the areas one should focus on to prepare for such a venture.

“Med School Confidential” by Robert H. Miller & Daniel M. Bissell,M.D. This book, too, details and outlines the steps for an undergraduate to take to make it into medical school and succeed as a medical student.

“The Intern Blues” by Robert Marion, M.D. This particular piece details three interns (post-med school) and the trials and tribulations they face in the pediatric wards as they work towards surviving their first year as doctors.

“Emergency Doctor” by Edward Ziegler. A work that describes life and experiences as an emergency physician.

“Becoming a Doctor” Melvin Konner, M.D. This is probably one of my favorites as it shows the reader the journey to becoming a doctor as a 33 year old man who already had created a life for himself, yet decides he wants more than the life he has worked so hard to achieve.

Now.. I know most of these do not give advice as to how to make it into medical school or even through it, but I love these books because they show the reader exactly what you can expect once you reach the point that you are required to actually put to show the information and knowledge you have required in medical school.

Universum Medical Presents: Chakra Hot Stone

admin — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 01:27:04 +0000

A combination of the ancient Hawaiian tradition and the Indian Ayurveda with its influence on the chakras, nadas, and marma points. Volcanic stones are a powerful source of vibration, light, and warmth. When placed warm on the chakras of your body, they give energy and improve your mood and self-esteem. The power of the stones is combined with Ayurvedic massage — slow, sensuous movements relax and calm, reduce stress, harmonize and balance the body and mind. The body and mind are no longer separated, but are soaring together in a magical atmosphere of silence.

iPhone OS 3.0 & Medical Devices

Yesterday Apple presented the blueprint for iPhone OS 3.0, the next version of their advanced mobile platform. They showed some really cool new features for the iPhone and iPod Touch, but particularly interesting to me was their enthusiasm about medicine and medical devices.

Part 1: Holistic Cancer Cures & Healing Yourself From ALL Disease!

admin — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 14:27:04 +0000

***DISCLAIMER*** This video is for informational purposes only! Leija Turunen is NOT a medical doctor, nor does she portray herself as such. She does not diagnose, treat, or cure any medical or psychological disease, disorder or condition, including cancer- So let us repeat that- Leija does NOT proclaim to cure cancer. Got it? Excellent! Leija simply enjoys expressing her truth and inspiring others to find their own truth. She hopes people will always question authority, and not be afraid to open their mind, explore and pursue the “alternative” and unconventional, and in a sense, stick it to the man. The purpose of this video series is to educate people on the topic of alternative approaches to healing/ ridding body of disease/ illness, including cancer. These alternatives DO NOT replace standard medical care, but Leija highly recommends that you do research on the prevention/ natural cures for disease, aka. “dis-ease.” Remember, YOU are THE BEST DOCTOR around- nobody, essentially, can heal you but yourself!

Ok, so this video is part 1 of 3. WARNING: I am very real in this video and tell it like it is…well, like it is to me at least! This is another side of of me that most people haven’t seen on youtube, but it is still very much a side of me. I felt like expressing it today & hopefully inspire people to do more research on this topic! Once again, this is a 3 parter, so if this video interests you in any way (and/ or you want to see me get even more fired up. LOL!) check out part 2 & 3 once they upload, which probably won’t be for many hours since my laptop is sllooooow. Cheers

PS. Before leaving a comment or emailing my with any questions you have, please watch all three parts and make sure to check the links I provide in part 3.

Part 2: Holistic Cancer Cures & Healing Yourself From ALL Disease!

admin — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 13:35:26 +0000

*** For those of you who are curious about EPFX quantum biofeedback, wanting to learn more, feel free to check out my website http://www.leijaturunen.com and youtube playlist called “Quantum Biofeedback Information”*** If you have any questions for me, don’t hesitate to ask! I care deeply about the health, happiness & freedom of my fellow earthlings, which includes you, yes you reading this right now! My intentions are to help the best I can! This is why I make these videos! I LOVE YOU and want to see you living a joyful, vibrant & empowered life!!! But please, keep in mind that I am a VERY busy young lady these days. If you email me a novel-sized email containing your life’s story and a list of 20 questions for me, I will recommend that you book a consult with me to receive my professional advice. Otherwise, the only response you will receive is, “I love you, but I haven’t mastered the art of responding to monster sized emails in a milli-second. Once I do, I will respond”… or something like that.

Anyway, this is part 2 of this series where I go into more depth on the topic. Part 1 is the intro- a very looong intro! LOL! Sorry, I never plan out what I’m going to say & tend to ramble a lot! But hey, they’re my vlogs and nobody is forcing you to watch them! If the word “alkaline” is new to you, I recommend looking into the book, “The pH Miracle” by Dr. Robert Young and watching the movie, “Food Matters” for starters. “Food Matters” is also an excellent movie to introduce family & friends onto the topics of the importance of food, health & the powers that be…you know, “them.”

Make sure to watch part 3 of this series & read the information section in part 3 for links to educational & inspiring books, websites & youtube videos.
