years—from emotional breakdowns to spiritually elevated
states—in order to help people discover and understand their own
purpose in life. Through this exploration, we will all be inspired to
examine our own lives and take the necessary steps to enhance our happiness
and well-being.

Emotional, physical, and spiritual experiences are all part of the

Self-Help – Discover Your Passion, Release Your Power

Posted on by

The Authentic Self, Book 2

Non Fiction / Self-Help

Release Date: July 1, 2020

Publisher: Deaf Dog Publishing

75 million people in this country, or half of the working population, would
change jobs or careers in a heartbeat if given the choice. Are you one of
them?

Why are we so unhappy in our work lives? Do you feel like you are just
trying to survive the daily grind during the week, just so you can get to
the weekend? Is it hard for you just getting out of bed so you can get to a
job that seems like sheer drudgery? How do we find the spark that seems to
be missing in our lives?

We all want more energy and want to be excited about our jobs and the
things we are spending time and energy on, but yet it seems clear that there
is a pervasive lack of enthusiasm, drive or energy in the people around us
at home and in our jobs. People seem to be going about their lives unplugged
and unengaged in the spiritual power and unique energy given to each and
every one of us. Power and energy lie within our unique, God given
passion.

In the second book of the Authentic Self series, Discover Your Passion,
Release Your Power, Dr Cavazos guides us onto the next leg of this exciting
journey forward to our Authentic Self. One critical aspect of this path
towards discovery and fulfillment is the absolute requirement of finding and
releasing the power of passion. In this book, you will:

1. Identify the essentials of your unique passion

2. Unlock the power of self-motivation

3. Uncover your own personal drive to thrive

4. Begin to use focus and determination to reach critical goals

5 Harness the skills of goal management for well-being, joy and
fulfillment

6. Find the value, protection and guidance that passion and purpose
bring

7. Learn why millions of people abandon New Years resolutions within 6
weeks

8. Discover the 18 sources of physical and spiritual power available to
each and every one of us

Drawing examples from inspiring leaders and people who have been successful
in business, music, science, sports and the arts, Dr. Cavazos will help you
examine your own life and experiences to enlighten you on this captivating
and invigorating trek to releasing the spiritual and physical power that is
bubbling within you, waiting to be released and unleashed.

If you truly believe that you have a unique God given purpose, but you are
having a tough time finding that purpose or the energy or drive to fulfill
that purpose, then this is the book for you. There is an exciting,
empowering and spell binding adventure waiting for you that will bring
peace, joy and a sense of fulfillment and well-being that you had no idea
even existed. Discover Your Passion. Release Your Power. You won’t regret
it.

Brave The Wave

The Authentic Self, Book 1

Release Date: April 2019

Publisher: Deaf Dog Publishing

Anxious? Stressed? Confused? Looking for Solutions?

As a practicing physician for twenty years, that is exactly the situation
that Johnny Cavazos was in. What stunned and shocked him the most was one
inescapable fact. He didn’t know what he didn’t know.

As he describes it, “The best analogy I can offer is that it’s like taking
your car to the mechanic to replace a faulty fuel pump and he hands you the
keys to a brand new Mercedes Benz and says, “take it, it’s yours.” (That’s
how Elvis used to give away cars.) There is more value here than a new
Mercedes.”

In this poignant and riveting account of his decade long journey of
discovery, you will be entertained while gaining valuable insight to help
you understand and actually appreciate the waves, trials and storms that we
all encounter in our lives.

This inspiring narrative of personal experiences will reveal useful and
practical approaches to help increase joy, clarity, love and personal peace
in your life. This book makes for a fascinating, powerful and uplifting read
that can inspire each of us to reach for heights we never thought
attainable.

With brutal honesty and humor, Johnny uses short vignettes from the medical
world and from the captivating world of near-death experiences to take us on
a journey that is spell binding, powerful and life changing.

Writing in a comfortable and warm style, Johnny takes us on this trip into
spirituality, faith and the near death experience as he unpacks ideas that
will open up an experience of clarity and vision you didn’t even realize
existed.

Brave the Wave will share valuable insights that will have a personal and
powerful impact on every relationship you have, bringing benefits to you and
everyone around you.

About the Author

Dr Cavazos is a practicing emergency room physician with over 30 years of
experience. As he likes to say experience matter. Because of a series of
struggles and trials, Dr Cavazos landed in a world of anxiety, frustration
that led to a “Decade of Discovery”. This culminated in the book series on
the Authentic Self. The self that God had in mind when he created us.

Self-Help – Building Self-Esteem

Posted on by

How Learning from Shame Helps Us to Grow

Self-Help

Date Published: May 2020

Publisher: New Rise Press

Despite what most people believe, shame and self-esteem are not opposites.

“With the skill of a master storyteller, Burgo vividly brings to life, through his clients’ struggles and his own, our shared journey to accept a startling truth: shame can either hobble us or help us thrive; it all depends on what we do with it. Savor this book’s lessons and exercises. You’ll come away with the kind of self-compassion that makes us all better people. “– Dr. Craig Malkin, Lecturer, Harvard Medical School and author of the internationally acclaimed book, Rethinking Narcissism.

Challenging widely-accepted views within the self-esteem movement, author Joseph Burgo argues that self-esteem does NOT thrive in the soil of non-stop praise and encouragement, but rather depends upon setting and meeting goals, living up to the expectations we hold for ourselves, and finally sharing our joy in achievement with the people who matter most to us. Along the way, listening to and learning from our encounters with shame will go further than affirmations and positive self-talk in helping us to build authentic self-esteem.

Richly illustrated with clinical stories from Burgo’s 35 years in private practice, Building Self-Esteem also describes the myriad ways that unacknowledged shame often hides behind a broad spectrum of mental disorders including social anxiety, narcissism, addiction, and masochism

For fans of Brené Brown and John Bradshaw

Drugs, Medical, Well-being, Self-help

Date Published: 6/4/2020

“Doctor, your exam patient is ready in operatory #1”! But are you ready when your patient opens his mouth to reveal teeth blackened, broken, and rotted with decay? At first glance, you might think the decay is from poor oral hygiene, candy or your patient’s soda consumption. But could it be from methamphetamine, a drug that causes severe tooth decay? Before you pick up your anesthetic syringe or dental drill, pick up and read “A State of Decay”: Your Dental Guide to Understanding and Treating Meth Mouth. With step-by-step advice and her outspoken style, Dr. Brown, walks you through how to Recognize, Communicate and Treat patients who have “meth mouth”. In these pages you’ll learn:

• What methamphetamine is and why it causes rapid tooth decay

• How to recognize patients in your practice who are using methamphetamine

• Effective strategies to treat your patients with “meth mouth”

Excerpt

Addiction is a disease that is not discriminatory based upon socioeconomics, gender, race, culture, or geography.

Wealthy people can become addicted just like people who are poor. People who live in urban areas become addicted the same way people in rural areas get addicted. People who are educated get addicted just like people who are uneducated. At the jail, I have

treated truck drivers, teachers, soccer moms, CEOs, software engineers, chefs, nurses, lawyers, college students, athletes—the list goes on—who have used methamphetamine! They sit in the dental chair, seeking help for the damage that meth has done to their teeth, but they also sit in their jail cells due to the impact that methamphetamine has had on their lives and the lives of others.

About the Author

Dr. Ronni Brown is a dentist, researcher, speaker and author who bridges the gap between dentistry, public health and substance abuse. Her work treating patients with “meth mouth” at a medium-security jail, research on the oral effects of methamphetamine, and courses at the world’s top dental conferences positions her as a leading expert on “meth mouth”. When not treating, speaking, or writing, Ronni can be found hiking, baking and visiting zoos across the world.
