'Oxygenation Is The Solution. Deaths From Covid-19 And Global Legal Insights For Medical Practice' by Brian Lynch (Book Hub Publishing, 2022).

This book provides a crucial examination of medical disclosure law, emphasizing its importance in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic and general medical practice. Key points include:

1. **Legal obligation**: Doctors are legally required to disclose information to patients based on what a reasonable person in the patient's position would want to know.

2. **Covid-19 implications**: The book suggests that many Covid-19 deaths could potentially be classified as deaths by misadventure or even unlawful deaths due to inadequate disclosure of treatment options.

3. **Alternative treatments**: Failure to disclose reasonable alternative treatments, such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), may constitute a breach of disclosure law.

4. **Global relevance**: This issue is not limited to one country but is a global legal concern.

5. **Legal defense**: Ignorance of disclosure laws is not a valid legal defense for medical professionals or institutions.

6. **Advancing medical practices**: Proper adherence to disclosure law can lead to improvements in medical practices and patient care.

7. **Overcoming barriers**: The book argues that disclosure law can empower both medical leaders and patients to challenge unlawful barriers to new medical practices.

8. **Real-world examples**: The author, Brian Lynch, provides true stories from the Covid-19 pandemic, Long Covid treatment, and general medical practice to illustrate these points.

This publication is timely and significant, offering valuable insights for both medical and legal professionals on the critical intersection of law and medical practice in the context of patient disclosure rights.

'Repair Not Repeat.How To Heal Your Heart And Release Unhealthy Cycles' by Amber Moon Holistic

A Personal Touch: The Author's Energy Work Experience and Healing Approach.

Amber's book strongly emphasises her personal experiences with energy work as shaping her approach to healing, specifically focusing on Reiki and her own struggles with emotional blockages and a closed heart chakra. Amber's journey highlights the powerful impact of energy work and informs how she guides clients towards similar transformations.

The author initially sought Reiki as a quick fix for her grief and disappointment but felt frustrated by the process. This experience highlights a common misconception about energy work: that it's a passive treatment where the practitioner "fixes" you. This misconception is challenged as the author's understanding of Reiki deepened.

Following advice from a mentor, Amber enrolled in a Reiki Level One course, initially intending to heal herself. However, this experience ignited a passion for Reiki, leading her to become a practitioner and eventually a Soul Mentor. This personal journey underscores the author's belief that healing is an active process, requiring individuals to engage with their own energy and emotional landscape.

The author shares a significant experience where a healer identified their closed heart chakra, a result of past hurts and guardedness. Although they didn't feel anything initially, that night they experienced a powerful energy release from their heart chakra. This transformative experience solidified their understanding of the heart chakra's role in emotional well-being and the importance of addressing emotional blockages.

The author describes herself as a "heart healer," emphasising her focus on helping clients clear blocks that prevent them from connecting with themselves and others. She recognises the challenges of releasing pain and fear surrounding the heart, drawing from her own experience to guide clients through this process.

The author acknowledges that being a healer doesn't mean having it all figured out and that she is still on her own healing journey. This honesty and vulnerability fosters trust with clients, showing that healing is a continuous process, not a destination.

Amber shares her personal experience of battling recurring physical ailments, eventually realising they stemmed from a blocked throat chakra, signifying suppressed emotions. Once she addressed these emotions and expressed their truth, the physical symptoms vanished. This experience reinforces Amber's belief in the mind-body connection and the importance of releasing blocked energy for overall well-being.

Overall, the author's approach to healing is deeply rooted in her own struggles and triumphs with energy work. Amber's personal experiences provide her with empathy, understanding, and the ability to guide clients through similar transformations, emphasising the interconnectedness of our physical, emotional, and energetic bodies.

Here are some of the narrative threads that intertwine throughout the novel's plot:
Peadar and Lucy's Relationship: The central narrative thread is the burgeoning relationship between Peadar, a human boy who has previously visited Fairyland, and Lucy, a human girl fostered by fairies. Their connection, established during Peadar's rescue mission to Fairyland, persists through time and distance. This thread drives the plot as Peadar endeavours to bring Lucy back to the human world.

The Mystery of Lucy's Origins: The book explores the mystery surrounding Lucy's arrival in Fairyland. As a stolen child, her human past is shrouded in secrecy. Uncovering her family history and finding her brother Damien becomes a crucial part of her journey back to the human world.

The Power of Belief and Trust: Throughout the story, characters grapple with the extraordinary nature of Peadar's claims. Ross's initial disbelief transforms into acceptance, demonstrating the power of friendship and open-mindedness. Similarly, Peadar's trust in Billy Bán's guidance, despite the fantastical elements, highlights the importance of faith and intuition.

The Role of Fairy Lore and Magic: The novel is steeped in fairy lore and magic, with elements such as time distortion, enchanted objects, and mystical creatures. This fantastical backdrop enriches the narrative, adding layers of mystery and wonder to the characters' experiences.

The Importance of Connection and Belonging: The story emphasises the importance of connection and belonging. Lucy's longing for the human world and her desire to reconnect with her family reflect a universal yearning for roots and identity. Peadar's close bond with his grandmother and his supportive friendship with Ross underscore the strength derived from meaningful relationships.

These narrative threads interweave to create a rich and engaging tapestry, exploring themes of love, identity, and the power of belief in the face of extraordinary circumstances. Just what is needed in these challenging times!

Draft material from our Director, Susan McKenna forthcoming book on sustainable gardening and positive mental health.

Chapter 1: Introduction to Sustainable Urban Gardening

"Why We Should All Try Urban Gardening

Urban gardening plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life for city dwellers. As urban areas continue to expand, the necessity for green spaces becomes increasingly vital. Gardens, whether they are small balcony setups or community plots, provide essential ecosystems within concrete jungles. They offer a sanctuary for biodiversity, attracting pollinators and beneficial insects that contribute to the health of the environment. By engaging in urban gardening, we can foster a connection with nature, promoting mental well-being and a sense of community. I wrote a chapter about this in a book series titled, 'Mental Health For Millennials' and want to return to the theme of all things gardening and develop some of my writing in more detail.

Perhaps the first point worth making is that urban gardening directly contributes to food security. In an era where access to fresh, organic produce can be limited, especially in food deserts, growing your own vegetables and herbs can make a significant difference. Even small spaces can yield abundant harvests through container gardening or vertical gardening techniques. This empowerment not only reduces reliance on commercial agriculture, which is good for none of us really, but also encourages healthier eating habits as argued by my friend, Cathy Fitzgibbon in her wonderful book, 'Eat For The Seasons'. By cultivating fresh vegetables right at home, we gardeners can enjoy the benefits of organic produce while minimising our carbon footprint. It's a win, win and it's fun. Oh, and it's backed by science.

The practice of urban gardening also plays a pivotal role in environmental sustainability. Urban areas are often marked by high levels of pollution and heat. Gardens act as natural air filters, improving air quality and reducing urban heat islands. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, contributing to cleaner air for everyone. Furthermore, urban gardens can help manage stormwater runoff, reducing the risk of flooding and promoting groundwater recharge. By incorporating sustainable practices such as composting and rainwater harvesting, urban gardeners can create resilient ecosystems that support both their gardens and the broader environment. Remember, I mentioned 'win/win' above?

For me, community engagement is another significant benefit of urban gardening. These green spaces often bring people together, fostering relationships among diverse groups. Community gardens provide opportunities for education, collaboration, and shared resources, allowing individuals to learn from one another about sustainable gardening techniques. This sense of camaraderie can lead to stronger neighborhoods and a collective effort towards sustainability. By participating in gardening initiatives, we can contribute to and promote a culture of environmental stewardship and social responsibility.

Finally, urban gardening serves as an inspirational social movement that encourages creativity and innovation. The challenges of limited space can inspire gardeners to think outside the box, exploring various gardening methods such as hydroponics or vertical farming. This creativity not only leads to unique gardening solutions but also promotes a deeper understanding of ecological principles...."

Key Lessons from Ali's "Rope-a-Dope" as Discussed in Mairtín Óg McDonagh from Mindovermountains book, 'Difficult Conversations' (Book Hub Publishing, 2024).

Máirtín Óg uses Muhammad Ali's "Rope-a-Dope" strategy from the "Rumble in the Jungle" fight against George Foreman as a metaphor for navigating difficult situations in business and life. He discusses this in Chapter 1 of "Difficult Conversations".
Here are the key lessons he draws from Ali's approach:
Resilience is not about avoiding blows but knowing how to endure them: Ali's strategy involved deliberately leaning back against the ropes and absorbing Foreman's punches, appearing vulnerable but strategically conserving his own energy while tiring out his opponent. This approach teaches that resilience is not about being impervious to challenges but about having the mental and emotional fortitude to withstand pressure and strategise effectively.

Patience and strategic thinking are crucial for turning a seemingly weak position into an advantage: By allowing Foreman to exhaust himself, Ali created an opportunity to strike when his opponent was most vulnerable. This highlights the importance of patience and strategic thinking in challenging situations. Rather than reacting impulsively or giving in to pressure, waiting for the right moment to act can lead to more favourable outcomes.

Recognising and utilising strengths and weaknesses: Ali understood his strengths as a skilled and agile boxer and Foreman's weakness of tiring quickly. He used the "Rope-a-Dope" to exploit this weakness, demonstrating the importance of understanding one's own capabilities and those of opponents or competitors. This awareness allows for strategic planning and leveraging strengths while capitalising on others' weaknesses.

The importance of mindset in challenging situations: Ali's strategy required immense mental toughness and self-belief. He had to withstand physical punishment and maintain composure despite appearing to be losing. This emphasises the power of mindset in overcoming adversity. A positive and resilient mindset can help individuals persevere and find opportunities for success, even when facing seemingly insurmountable challenges.

Máirtín Óg applies these lessons to the experiences of business owners and leaders, suggesting that financial strain or leadership pressure can feel like being "on the ropes."
Periods of difficulty require strategic endurance, knowing when to conserve resources and when to take action.
Shifting mindset from scarcity and fear to one of opportunity and resilience is crucial for navigating difficult times.
Just as Ali didn't win through brute force but through strategy and resilience, business success often requires patience, planning, and emotional intelligence.

In summary, Máirtín Óg uses the "Rope-a-Dope" as a powerful illustration of how resilience, strategy, and mindset can transform a seemingly defensive position into a winning outcome. He encourages his clients to adopt a similar approach, embracing challenges as opportunities for growth and utilising their strengths to overcome adversity in both business and personal life.

From 'The Chosen Child' by Janet O'Leary

A Turning Point: The Significance of Lucy's Fourteenth Birthday
Lucy's fourteenth birthday is a pivotal moment in the story, marking a transition into a new phase of her life and setting in motion events that could drastically change her fate.

In the book, human children living in the Rainbow Zones of Fairyland cannot remain there after their sixteenth birthday. This looming deadline weighs heavily on Lucy and Lady Lavender as Lucy's fourteenth birthday arrives, marking the start of her final two years in the Lavender Zone. This birthday serves as a stark reminder of the limited time remaining for Lucy to decide her future and potentially return to the human world.

Turning fourteen signifies a period of significant growth and change for Lucy. She becomes "more serious and thoughtful" reflecting on her past and contemplating her future. This shift in her demeanour is attributed to the visit of Peadar and Billy Bán two years prior, during which she witnessed a glimpse of the world she was taken from. This increased maturity and self-awareness are further emphasised by her decision to take a more active role in planning the Pot o'Gold game instead of participating as a child.

Peadar's birthday card and letter, delivered by the fairy messenger Agnus Albus, arrive on Lucy's fourteenth birthday. This seemingly simple gesture carries immense weight, reigniting Lucy's hope for a return to the human world and marking the beginning of a renewed connection with Peadar. The letter's arrival on her birthday underscores the significance of this day as a turning point in her life. It is not merely a celebration of another year but a catalyst for change and possibility.

Prompted by Peadar's letter and her growing awareness of her impending transformation, Lucy initiates difficult conversations with Lady Lavender. She reveals her knowledge of the rules governing stolen human children and expresses her longing for the human world. This newfound openness and willingness to confront difficult topics highlight Lucy's growing maturity and her determination to shape her own destiny. These conversations pave the way for a deeper understanding between Lucy and Lady Lavender and mark a shift in their relationship as Lucy transitions into a more independent young woman.

Lucy's fourteenth birthday sets in motion a series of events that propel her towards a potential return to the human world. The arrival of Peadar's letter rekindles their connection, leading to their renewed communication through Peadar's drawing. This connection, combined with Lucy's conversations with Lady Lavender, motivates her to seek more information about her human family and explore ways to bridge the divide between the realms.

So, Lucy's fourteenth birthday is not just a celebration but a catalyst for change, introspection, and a renewed sense of purpose. It marks the beginning of her final journey in Fairyland, a journey filled with challenges, difficult decisions, and the unwavering hope of finding her way back to the human world.

Paths to Fairyland in Janet O'Leary new book, 'The Stolen Child'

Stolen and Chosen

The book reveals two primary ways human children are brought to Fairyland: they are either stolen by goblins or chosen by hobgoblins. Stolen children are taken by goblins who are not interested in the child's name or history. They often target infants in cradles made of Elder wood, exploiting the tree's "bad temper" or "thraw energy" to facilitate the abduction. This suggests a malicious intent, implying that the goblins might use the children for their own purposes.

Chosen children are taken by hobgoblins who are seen as rescuers. These children are selected because they are in danger of facing a catastrophic event in their human life. Bringing them to Fairyland is a "rescue in advance," ensuring their safety and offering them a different fate. Hobgoblins are more likely to know and share information about the chosen child's human origins.

The distinction between stolen and chosen children is crucial:
Stolen children lose their human identities. Their names are often changed, and their past remains a mystery. This is exemplified by Millie, whose real name is only known by Lady Emerald due to a chance encounter with Agnus Albus.

Chosen children have a chance of returning to the human world before their sixteenth birthday. Lucy, chosen by hobgoblins, is presented with this opportunity. Her connection to her human past is maintained through knowledge of her name and the existence of her brother Damien.

The circumstances surrounding a child's arrival in Fairyland impact their future prospects:
Stolen children face a predetermined fate. They are raised by fairy guardians until they turn sixteen, at which point they transform into fairies and remain in Fairyland forever.
Chosen children have a potential for agency. While their initial arrival is orchestrated by the hobgoblins, they are presented with a choice to return to the human world, reclaiming their human identity and fulfilling their destiny.

This duality in how children are brought to Fairyland adds a layer of complexity to the setting and the narrative Janet's story. Fairyland offers sanctuary and a different kind of life, but the circumstances of entry determine the path a human child will take.

More from 'The Chosen Child' by Janet O'Leary (Book Hub Publishing, 2024).

Understanding Peadar: A Boy Caught Between Worlds.

Peadar is the central male character in the book, and his journey is deeply entwined with the world of Fairyland. He embodies a unique blend of ordinary human experiences and extraordinary encounters with the supernatural.

Peadar's character is portrayed as sensitive, artistic, and deeply connected to nature. He finds solace and expression through art, particularly drawing and painting. His artistic talent is not merely a hobby but a conduit for his connection to Fairyland. He is described as "often lost to the outside world" when immersed in his art, suggesting a deep level of engagement and an almost trance-like state. This sensitivity extends to his interactions with animals, evident in his deep affection for Billy Bán, his magical goat companion.

Peadar's life is significantly shaped by his experiences in Fairyland, beginning with the rescue of his parents, who were abducted by the evil wizard Duodecimus. This traumatic event instilled in him a deep understanding of the complexities and dangers of the fairy realm. His time in Fairyland also led to a profound connection with Lucy, a human girl stolen by fairies. This connection fuels his determination to bring her back to the human world. These experiences set him apart from his peers, leaving him with a sense of isolation and a secret he cannot share.

Peadar's artistic talent becomes a bridge between the human and fairy realms. His drawing of Lucy acts as a portal, allowing communication and even travel between the worlds. This unique ability positions Peadar as a key player in Lucy's fate, making him instrumental in her potential return to the human world. He acts as an intermediary, conveying messages and facilitating contact between Lucy and her family in the afterlife.

Throughout his journey, Peadar receives guidance from wise figures like Han Carty, the medicine woman with a deep understanding of fairies, and Billy Bán, his magical goat companion who acts as a mentor and protector. These figures teach him the importance of patience, trust, and aligning himself with the forces of good. The sources emphasise that Peadar often struggles with impulsiveness, wanting to control events and solve problems quickly. This inner conflict adds depth to his character, as he learns to surrender to the mysteries of Fairyland and trust the wisdom of those guiding him.

As Peadar navigates the complexities of his situation, he faces ethical dilemmas, particularly regarding honesty. He feels compelled to keep his experiences in Fairyland secret, leading to feelings of unease and a sense of separation from his peers. However, his desire to help Lucy and his growing trust in his friends, Ross and Fionn, encourage him to gradually reveal the truth, emphasising the importance of honesty and shared responsibility in his journey.

Peadar is not a passive observer of magical events but an active participant, constantly learning, evolving, and making choices that shape his destiny and that of those around him. He is portrayed as a complex character, balancing the innocence of youth with the weight of extraordinary experiences, driven by love, loyalty, and a deep-seated yearning to bridge the divide between the human and fairy worlds.

Let's have an introduction to one of the central characters in Janet O'Leary new book, 'The Chosen Child.' (Book Hub Publishing, 2024). So, let's look at Lucy.

Lucy is the central female character in the story, a human girl stolen from the human realm as a baby and raised in Fairyland. Her journey is one of self-discovery, navigating the complexities of her dual identity and yearning for a world she barely remembers.

Lucy was taken from her human family as an infant and brought to Fairyland by the hobgoblins, benevolent creatures within the fairy realm known for their protective nature. Although initially described as a stolen child, it is later revealed that her removal was an act of rescue, orchestrated to save her from a tragic fate in the human world. This duality—being both stolen and chosen—forms a core element of her identity and fuels her yearning for belonging.

Lucy has been raised in the Lavender Zone, one of the seven Rainbow Zones designed as sanctuaries for stolen human children within the dangerous fairy underworld. Lady Lavender, her guardian, has provided a loving and protective environment, shielding Lucy from the harsh realities of Fairyland and fostering a sense of normalcy. Lucy's life in the Lavender Zone is idyllic, filled with the beauty of nature, close friendships, and simple pleasures. However, she is also aware of the limitations of this existence, knowing that she will eventually have to leave the Rainbow Realm and transition into a fairy identity upon reaching sixteen.

Despite her comfortable life in Fairyland, Lucy harbours a deep-seated longing for the human world, a place she only vaguely remembers through dreams and stories. Her connection to the human realm is further strengthened by her encounter with Peadar, a human boy who visited the Lavender Zone on a mission to rescue his parents from Fairyland. Their brief connection leaves a lasting impression on Lucy, fueling her desire to return to the world she was taken from.

Peadar's birthday card and letter, delivered by a fairy messenger, ignite Lucy's hope for returning home. The sources highlight the power of this connection, particularly the impact of Peadar's artistic talent. Peadar's drawing of Lucy acts as a portal, allowing them to communicate and even briefly visit each other across the realms. This extraordinary connection reinforces Lucy's determination to bridge the divide and find her place in the human world.

As Lucy's sixteenth birthday approaches, the looming reality of her transformation into a fairy intensifies her longing for the human world. She engages in honest conversations with Lady Lavender, revealing her knowledge of her fate and her desire to return home. This newfound openness marks a significant step in her journey, signifying her growing maturity and her willingness to confront the challenges ahead.

Lucy is not a passive recipient of fate but an active participant in her journey. She seeks information about her human family, collaborates with Peadar and his friends, and even initiates actions that could lead to her return. Her determination to overcome the obstacles separating her from the human world showcases her courage, resilience, and unwavering hope.
A Symbol of Hope: Lucy's journey embodies a universal human desire for belonging and finding one's true place in the world. Her story explores themes of identity, loss, and the power of connection, highlighting the importance of courage, hope, and the enduring bonds of friendship in navigating life's complexities.

Ultimately, Lucy's character represents the struggle of a displaced individual yearning for home, a struggle that resonates with readers on a deeply emotional level. Her journey offers a captivating blend of fantasy, adventure, and emotional depth, making her a compelling and relatable character.
