Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) January 15, 2006
Aniston-Pitt. Richards-Sheen. Simpson-Lachey. Romijn-Stamos. Hollywood is buzzing with divorce in the headlines, and while the world gawks at the ?news,? one vital thing is missing?. Health Advice for the over-stressed women of divorce who have even more stress if they are going through their divorce in the Hollywood spotlight. Emotional, mental/psychological, spiritual, physical and sexual health. Author, Amy Botwinick, Author of ?Congratulations on Your Divorce: The Road To Finding Your Happily Ever After? is pro-actively gathering a collective network of health professionals together to help share the message about the effects divorce can have on the mind, body and spirit. From promoting vibrators via her website http://www.divorcesextoys.com; to her book and the long list of resources and information at http://www.todaysdivorcedwoman.com, Botwinick?s mission of benefiting women?s shelters with the proceeds from book and product sales, while generating constant messages about health, safety and well-being is her own journey, as a divorced woman helping women. Dr. Joan Torgersen Magill, Licensed Psychologist/Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist/Certified Sport Psychologist describes Botwinick?s book as ?essential? for women considering or going through a divorce. ?As a stress management specialist, this clinician endorses her writings for the stress reduction possibilities, alone, though there is much else here, as well,? states Magill.
Botwinick explains how women going through divorce, like Jessica Simpson can benefit from stress reduction. ?Stress is a by product of a primitive instinct called ?fight or flight? that helped us escape dangerous situations during our prehistoric past. Women of divorce can range from young brides like Simpson, to women who have been married for years and into their fifties ? divorce does not differentiate by age or celebrity, especially when it comes to stress, effects on health and safety. I?m here to share information. If I had just five minutes with Jessica Simpson, I would tell her about sexual safety and stress, first and foremost. She has a stressful profession ? and particularly with her and Lachey going through their divorce in the ?Hollywood spotlight? ? added stress. If the level of stress created over a prolonged period of time is ignored, it can cause life threatening illness and symptoms that can create considerable consequences mentally and physically. In terms of sex ? we all commended Simpson for being a virgin when she got married, but not being married anymore doesn?t mean she has to deny her God-given sexual urges. That?s why vibrators are a safe-sex alternative, when emotionally healing during a divorce.?
While the message of safe sex is nota new one, it may be a message worth re-exploring for women of divorce, who have been in monogamous relationships with their spouse. ?As the divorced woman re-enters the dating scene, it is essential to realize that along with the excitement and pleasure found in a new relationship, there are potential dangers that accompany physical intimacy. There are roughly 70 million people infected with one of 25 sexually transmitted diseases. These diseases do not discriminate based upon age or marital status. However, transmission is almost always preventable. Be smart, be safe, and do not be afraid to consult your gynecologist for any questions regarding STD prevention,? states Dr. David Lubetkin,who is an OBGYN.
Botwinick as a divorced woman and as a chiropractor for twelve years, says she?s discovered many wonderful conventional and unconventional ways to heal on all levels. ?I have treated many chiropractic patients with physical symptoms resulting from stress resulting from divorce. Patient complaints included tension headaches, migraines, back pain, muscle tightness, TMJ, upset stomach, nervous twitches and more. . As a primary health care provider I believe every patient should have a team of traditional and alternative healing professionals available to them along their journey, especially as they transition through the uncoupling process,? states Botwinick.
Botwinick practices what she preaches. She sought out the help of Dr. Brian Sheen, Executive Director of The Quantum Healing Center, Delray Beach Florida ( http://www.spiritgrowth.com) for her own wellness and divorce recovery. ?Divorce is powerful time for personal reassessment to look within for healing and growth. Unless a deep search of the underlying issues that brought you into the relationship and then out of it are undertaken with professional direction, the chances are there will be piles of blame, regret and resentment that will distort and prevent a healthy relationship in the future,? states Sheen.
This first-time author shares her own journey in a helpful girlfriend-to-girlfriend conversational guide to help women through the divorce process and beyond. Botwinick is currently enjoying her ?happily ever after.? She is a divorced mother of two, and has been a chiropractor for the last twelve years and has held a teaching position at a local college. Her business for over a decade has been about listening, learning and helping others. Amy?s research and writing convey a directness and honesty that comes from personal experience.
There are over two million divorces in the U.S. each year. Cinderella?s prince charming has either turned into a toad or run off with Sleeping Beauty. Left in the pixie dust are millions of women looking in the mirror each morning wondering, now what? Congratulations on Your Divorce: The Road to Finding Your Happily Ever After (Health Communications, Inc.; December 2005; $ 12.95) by Amy Botwinick explores all facets of divorce: from making the decision, surviving the legal battles and getting on with life. Through the author?s own experiences and those of other women, Congratulations on Your Divorce prepares readers for the road ahead: how to get through the business of divorce with humor and aplomb, get beyond the bitterness and on to a healthy, happy life.
This is not another dry book about the process of divorce from a lawyer or psychologist. Congratulations on Your Divorce is fun and uplifting and for women only. The author shares her own struggles, emotional foibles and stories from others, to help the reader through her own emotions. A special section on the male perspective opens the door to the workings of the male mind, helping readers find some common ground with their ex or soon-to-be ex, making an easier transition to ?uncoupling.?
Sections of the book include: Making peace with your decision, taking stock of the financial situation, dealing with reactions from family and friends, the legal three-ring circus, forgiving and letting go, dating and new relationships, and telling and helping the children.
Congratulations on Your Divorce is a breath of fresh air that helps the reader transform her feelings of being trapped to feelings of empowerment. It describes the world of divorce?warts and all?with some much-needed comic relief and heart. The reader will realize she?s not alone as she learns how other women have coped with the emotional craziness of uncoupling, jettisoned their emotional baggage, and gotten back on the road to defining and finding their happily ever after.
