About this item

"Connie Strasheim's book is a MUST-READ for anyone who has Lyme disease; for those who suspect that they might have it or who are concerned about exposure to it, and for those who have friends or family members with it. It is packed with plenty of NEW, useful and easy-to- understand information about Lyme, its coinfections and various co-conditions. For this book, Connie interviewed ten leading Lyme specialists, including one from Germany, one from Canada and eight from the USA -all of which have an integrative approach to treatment. The experts all agree that certain treatment steps are essential for recovery, but all have a unique treatment approach and provide their own pearls of wisdom. I congratulate Connie for a job VERY well done!"- W.



About the Author

Connie Strasheim

Connie Strasheim was born and raised in Lakewood, Colorado, but has lived in such diverse places as Queens, NY, Buenos Aires, Argentina, London, England and San Jose, Costa Rica. She has traveled to over 50 nations on 5 continents besides. She currently resides between Denver, Colorado and Dallas, Texas, where she writes books on holistic wellness, teaches about healing, leads a nationwide prayer conference call group, and practices healing ministry at her local church.

A former flight attendant with United Airlines, Connie's airline career ended abruptly in 2004 when she became disabled at age 30 with chronic Lyme disease. In the years that followed, she went from being a world traveler who served hundreds of people daily on airplanes, to a housebound medical researcher who served hundreds through the Internet and her books and blog on Lyme disease.

As she recovered from chronic illness, Connie expanded her medical research to include other topics, such as cancer, environmental illness, spiritual wellness and nutrition, and her books reflect her knowledge in all of these areas.

In 2014, she co-authored, along with renowned integrative medical doctor Lee Cowden, MD, three books in the Journey To Wellness series. These include: "Create a Toxin-Free Body and Home...Starting Today," "Foods that Fit a Unique You," and "Bioenergetic Tools for Wellness" (the latter two books to be released in late summer-fall 2014) .

Connie is also the author of the best-selling "Insights Into Lyme Disease Treatment: Thirteen Lyme-Literate Health Care Practitioners Share Their Healing Strategies (2009) "; "Beyond Lyme Disease: Healing The Underlying Causes of Chronic Illness in People with Borreliosis andCo-Infections (2012) ", "Defeat Cancer: 15 Doctors of Integrative and Naturopathic Medicine Tell You How (2010) ," "Healing Chronic Illness: By His Spirit, Through His Resources" (2010) and "The Lyme Disease Survival Guide: Physical, Lifestyle and Emotional Strategies for Healing" (2008) .

Through her battle with severe chronic illness, Connie has learned that attaining wellness isn't just about eliminating infections, detoxifying the body or balancing the hormones--it's about addressing all the factors that caused the body to break down in the first place. These include all environmental, psycho-emotional, lifestyle and spiritual issues that cause or contribute to damage, discontent and--ultimately--"dis-ease" in the body, mind and spirit. She has also learned, through her experience and research, that in order to be well--never mind whole--in today's world fraught with stress and toxicity, many tools are required. In her and Dr. Cowden's book series, The Journey to Wellness, she and Dr. Cowden share some of these tools.

Connie enjoys seeing people become whole, in body, mind and s
