BLEED

Resumen del Libro

A scorching examination of how we treat endometriosis today Have you ever been told that your pain is imaginary? That feeling better just takes yoga, CBD oil, and the blood of a unicorn on a full moon? That’s the reality of the more than 190 million people suffering the excruciating condition known as endometriosis. This disease affecting one in ten cis women and uncounted numbers of others is chronically overlooked, underfunded, and misunderstood — and improperly treated across the medical system. Discrimination and medical gaslighting are rife in endo care, often leaving patients worse off than when they arrived. Journalist Tracey Lindeman knows it all too well. Decades of suffering from endometriosis propelled the creation of BLEED — part memoir, part investigative journalism, and all scathing indictment of how the medical system fails patients. Through extensive interviews and research, BLEED tracks the modern endo experience to the origins of medicine and how the system gained its power by marginalizing women. Using an intersectional lens, BLEED dives into how the system perpetuates misogyny, racism, classism, ageism, transphobia, fatphobia, and other prejudices to this day. BLEED isn’t a self-help book. It’s an evidence file and an eye-opening, enraging read. It will validate those who have been gaslit, mistreated, or ignored by medicine and spur readers to fight for nothing short of revolution.

Para el estudio y práctica de esta obra, es importante conocer y tener en ejercicio: el “Ser Interno”, los “Siete Rayos”, los “Siete Principios Universales” y temas expuestos en libros que la anteceden, como: “Pilares de la Metafísica” y “Siete Rayos”.

Cronología Profética de Nostradamus. Tomo 3 - 1700/1799

En este estudio se han transcrito todos los textos conservados de Nostradamus palabra por palabra y se agruparon juntos en un mismo archivo, presagios, almanaques, pronosticaciones, cartas, y centurias. El resultado ha sido sorprendente. Nostradamus unió todos sus textos mediante los nombres, verbos, palabras, y expresiones que aparecen en las diferentes cuartetas.
