About this ebook
Feeling stressed? Anxious? Waves of tension? Worried? Are you sick or hurting? Feeling defeated? Amputated? Desperate? Lost? You can fix your problems step by step from the material here. Start now for immediate benefits. Grow them as you walk into the program. The greater your engagement into the program the greater your benefits. Others have so you can.
This program aims you at:
Avoiding Dialogue at the knife's edge
Nuking type II diabetes. It's also very useful for type I and a whole range of circulation disorders - hypertension, arterioscherosis, heart disease and so on. Variants of it have been successfully used by people with a huge range of other problems. It works. It even reduces cholesterol at least as effectively as taking drugs.
Enriched understanding how-to take care of yourself, both by yourself, and as part of the larger world. A holistic solution.
Creating your own custom program, tailored to your mind, body, spirit, and community situation. You're starting that process right now. Keep going.
Forming a buoyant community, beyond a support group, to help you.
Please read it fast and lightly – skim it. Mindmap it as you go. Maybe use the opportunity to learn to read fast. Then re-read it again to enlarge your understanding. That's right we're giving you a basket of benefits - repatterning as you learn to fly.
This program is Daoist by simply highlighting and following natural patterns. It doesn't explain or explore Taoism as such. If you want to do that you might google for “tao” or “dao” or the “tao te ching.” Some people might look at the book “The Tao of Physics” to explore the links between Daoism and how our world works. More dedicated patterners might google on “A Pattern Language” by Christopher Alexander, or “software patterns”, or “The Structure of Pattern Languages” by Nikos Salingaros, or perhaps follow the patterns in Edward de Bono's book “Water Logic”. It's all communications. Our cultures are patterned communications. Even our facial/body languages reflect our various cultures.

I'm a coach - trainer - writer, from Vancouver, Canada, with some years experience in China. I like to start things, to grow things and people. Gardening. The gardening grows into mapping, of some kinds. Scenarios, design thinking, strategy, and such. Part of growing things is improving them. Please suggest improvements at: BazaarTales@windwaterwine.com Thanks, Vic

This program aims you at:
Avoiding way-too-late dialogue at their knife's edge
Nuking type II diabetes. It's also very useful for type I and a whole range of circulation disorders - hypertension, arterioscherosis, heart disease and so on. Variants of it have been successfully used by people with a huge range of other problems. It works. It even reduces cholesterol at least as effectively as taking drugs.
Smacking 'Diabetes the First Year' (google on that if you're a new diabetic). Even when it's really your fifth year, and suffering with late diagnosis.
Enriched understanding how-to take care of yourself, both by yourself, and as part of the larger world. A holistic solution.
Creating your own custom program, tailored to your mind, body, spirit, and community situation. You're starting that process right now. Keep going.
Forming a buoyant community, beyond a support* group, to help you. For one example, see Seeding and Growing Groups.

(* Support groups tend to be 'anti' or against things, which perpetuates the situation. Anxiety groups maintain the anxiety pattern. See the three demons and the three main ways we envision things. As you'll see, a 4th way works best.)

Stories
Al told us that he'd fought a helluva battle with type II diabetes for thirty-one years. He was badly overweight and had a distressing list of physical problems. He didn't, wouldn't, tell us his diet or exercise or other treatment habits, but reaffirmed that his diabetes was an awful battle to fight.
Walking through a forested park in the Pacific NorthWest, I noticed a series of small plastic pipe culverts under the trail. A storm event had washed a mass of debris against one pipe and plugged it, causing flood damage, and some crew had put in another pipe alongside the first. Then another storm had repeated the performance. I was now looking at the third pipe, dutifully waiting for its storm event. It made me think of some people and circulation problems, coronary bypass operations and such. But this was out in the open where many people could see the situation.
George had been diagnosed with type II diabetes and had immediately taken on a vegetarian diet - with some free range meats, mostly chickens bought alive in rural Mexican villages. He now looked quite fit after three months walking and traveling along the coast in Mexico. He'd just been checked again, and had just been told that he should never have been diagnosed with diabetes, that that had been a mistake. He was quite happy and satisfied. I checked, he happily ate chicken organs, but not the head or feet.
Peter had woken up blind in one eye. Obviously he'd had diabetes for years before being diagnosed. When we met he was on some strict medical - gym - dietitian treatment scheme that wasn't working. He had a growing list of problems. We couldn't fit any changes into the rigid gridwork formed by his medical – diet regime, and he just kept getting worse.
We looked at family support and habits, and found that his kids were mimicking him in their diet and exercise patterns. They were following his heavy patterning. He was getting worse and his family had already acquired the same ways.
'Everybody' knows that calcium is added to milk because our wealthy meat-milk-egg eating society has problems with calcium deficiency. Let's consider that meat-milk-egg inflow as something that alters the pH/acidity of the human innards. We, our bodies, are adapted to a high vegetable diet, but our minds, the modern way/culture, is to snarf down lots of meat, milk, fats,
