In this episode of Chasing the Insights, I talk to Dr. Christine M. Silverstein.

Dr. Christine talks to us about The journey of writing a book.

Dr. Christine M. Silverstein is a graduate of the Leadership Program for Nurse Executives and Nurse Educators at Teachers College, Columbia University, where she earned a Doctor of Education (EdD) and was inducted into the Nursing Hall of Fame for her extraordinary work in global health care. She holds a master's degree in public administration (MPA) from Long Island University and is a member of the Pi Alpha Alpha National Honor Society for Public Affairs and Administration. As an RN, she earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from The City College of New York (summa cum laude).

For 29 years, as an entrepreneur and director at The Summit Center for Ideal Performance in Oakland NJ, she has worked online and in-office to assist clients of all ages—from the nursery school to the nursing home—to reach their ideal performances in health, well-being, academics, athletics, business, and performing arts.

As a professional member of the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis, Dr. Silverstein is skilled at using hypnosis as a therapeutic tool. Her specialty is in educating children, teens, and young adults to win in life by using Mindful Toughness® skill sets she developed that include Self-Hypnosis, Breathing Easy, Mental Rehearsal, Mental Recall, Positive Self-Talk, and Feedback Loop Analysis, to aid them in building resilience in today's tumultuous world. These skill sets are portable and are easily learned and used from one situation to another—that is, from the wrestling mat to the classroom and from the athletic field to the boardroom.

Dr. Silverstein is a published historian and researcher who has written extensively on the history of psychiatry, psychiatric nursing, and nursing science development.

As an author, she recently was honored by winning the Hustle & Heart Gold Book Award for Social Impact for her book: Wrestling Through Adversity: Empowering Children, Teens, & Young Adults to Win in Life.

In addition, she has lectured globally on peak performance for sports improvement, holistic healing from surgery, fertility enhancement coaching, and how to access the subconscious mind for success in life and in business. She has appeared on TV and radio to speak about how parents can help teens after gun violence and how they can protect their children from childhood sexual abuse.
