Vadim Dekhtyar releases book on staying steady through uncertainty

Vadim Dekhtyar, founder of Life Balance Clinic in Glenview, Illinois, has published Internal Vision, a new book focused on helping readers handle illness, fear and major life changes with more clarity and stability. The book is now available on Amazon and ties into his clinic’s work with patients facing vision-related conditions.

Why it matters: - Internal Vision is aimed at people dealing with serious diagnoses, chronic illness and major life transitions. - The book frames uncertainty as a second burden on top of a medical condition, which can affect independence, identity and daily participation. - The release extends Dr. Vadim Dekhtyar’s clinic-based approach to emotional resilience beyond the exam room.

What happened: - Vadim Dekhtyar, DACM, founder of Life Balance Clinic in Glenview, Illinois, released Internal Vision: Finding Clarity, Regulation, and Stability When the Future Is Uncertain. - The book is now available on Amazon: Available on Amazon. - Dekhtyar said the book grew out of his work with patients facing serious diagnoses, especially progressive vision loss.

The details: - Dekhtyar trained first in Western medicine and later in Traditional Chinese Medicine. - The book argues that a diagnosis can trigger two challenges at once: the condition itself and the future a person begins to imagine. - Internal Vision focuses on distinguishing what is known from what is only predicted. - The book presents three core capacities: Clarity, Regulation and Stability. - Clarity means separating facts from predictions. - Regulation means influencing emotional and physical responses. - Stability means regaining balance when fear returns. - The book introduces SIGHT, a five-step process for moments of worry or uncertainty. - It also includes a 12-question Internal Vision Profile, the Circle of Participation tool and a structured 30-Day Internal Vision Practice. - Dekhtyar says the book is meant to help readers acknowledge reality while staying focused on what remains within their control. - He said, “Nothing about a person’s medical condition has to change for their response to change. What changes is the future they are picturing in the present. That is where a person can begin to participate again.”

Between the lines: - The book’s message goes beyond vision loss and is intended for people facing any condition or transition that creates fear about the future. - The approach rejects forced optimism and does not claim positive thinking can remove medical problems. - The framing suggests a practical mental-health-adjacent toolset, while stopping short of presenting the book as treatment. - The launch also reinforces Life Balance Clinic’s broader emphasis on the connection between physical health, emotional well-being and nervous system regulation.

What’s next: - Life Balance Clinic will provide complimentary copies of Internal Vision to current Vision Balance patients. - New patients enrolling in the clinic’s Vision Balance program will also receive the book. - The clinic’s 10-Day Vision Balance System continues as an individualized complementary program for people with certain vision-related conditions. - Interviews with Vadim Dekhtyar may be requested through Life Balance Clinic.

The bottom line: - Internal Vision turns a clinical lesson into a broader self-management guide: when the future feels frightening, the first task is to separate fact from fear and keep participating in life.
