Synopsis: As a mom of a newly diagnosed child with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), Chynna Laird relentlessly sought experts in SPD, as well as top nutritionists, biopsychologists, and neurologists. She thought that if she could understand the major functions of the brain, and how it’s supposed to take in, process and respond to stimulation, she could discover how SPD interferes with these functions. Understanding the whole picture (the combination of body, brain and nutritional health) led Chynna to embrace the “Sensory Diet.”
“Exceptionally well written, organized and presented for the benefit of the non-specialist general reader with no previous background on the subject…”
In the pages of “The Sensory Processing Diet: One Mom’s Path of Creating Brain, Body and Nutritional Health for Children with SPD”, Chunna share the keys of a well-balanced nutritional diet and the activities and exercises that truly work. “The Sensory Processing Diet” is specifically designed for parents to utilize the resources in this study to create a whole picture of their own child’s conditions and create a customize Sensory Diet for him or her.
Critique: Exceptionally well written, organized and presented for the benefit of the non-specialist general reader with no previous background on the subject, “The Sensory Processing Diet: One Mom’s Path of Creating Brain, Body and Nutritional Health for Children with SPD” is an especially and unreservedly recommended addition to community and college/university library Parenting collections in general, and SPD supplemental studies lists in particular. It should be noted for the personal reading lists of concerned parents that “The Sensory Processing Diet” is also readily available in a paperback edition (9781615995219, $21.95) and in a digital book format (Kindle, $6.95).

Are you ready to finally recover your peace of mind?


We are living in a time where betrayal abounds. Tragically, most of know or know of someone who has been scarred by the betrayal bandit.
In whatever form it takes (financial, political, personal, social, legal, environmental, cultural, etc.), no one is immune from
the infectious waves of betrayal moving through our society. Breaking Through Betrayal: And Recovering the Peace Within is for any individual who has experienced or is experiencing betrayal, who carries the wounds or scars of betrayal injury, and who is struggling to break through its bonds. Betrayal has known us far longer than we have known it; it is time to change that. Readers of this book will be challenged to:

  • Explore the different kinds of betrayal while connecting with the experiences of others.
  • Unravel the emotions and behaviors that accompany betrayal injury and explore the factors which contribute to the intensity and duration of symptoms.
  • Empower yourself by embracing an interactive healing process tailored specifically for recovery from betrayal injury.
  • Revive and restore your mind, body, and spirit through a series of activities, exercises, and self-assessments which provide tools for renewal, as well as working through relapse or re-injury.
  • Reclaim your rightful sense of self.



    Therapists Praise Breaking Through Betrayal


    "Useful for anyone caught in self-blame, shame or repeated victimization. Though almost the antithesis of my
    inner-transformation approach, this empowering 'in-control' approach can help readers take charge,
    assess injury, gauge healing and find excellent strategies to protect themselves from future trauma when
    relating to one's betrayer."

    --Beth Hedva, Ph.D. author of award-winning Betrayal, Trust and Forgiveness


    "This volume deals with the subject of betrayal, and is appropriate as a self-help
    aid for clients. It also contains useful suggestions for therapists dealing with those
    who have experienced betrayal of trust of several kinds: interpersonal, familial,
    sexual, and financial. The steps in the healing process are well outlined and make
    clear that relapse is to be expected. Overlap with loss and the grief process is also
    well discussed."

    --Lucy R. Ferguson, Ph.D., Member, AFTNC

    Faculty Member and Dean Emerita, CSPP, Alliant University
