Let me be the first to share the exciting news: the second edition of my book, “Heal or Die” is now available on Amazon!
I know, I know. I couldn’t let it alone. I just had to improve it. That’s the way I am.
What’s in the New Edition
In this second edition, I don’t touch any of my personal story about how my Higher Power led me from “23 hours a day on the couch, just trying not to end it all” to “daughter of God, wife and mom, an impactpreneur trying to help people and organizations improve whole-person health”.
What I do is drastically revise a few appendices and add a few new ones into the mix. Why? Because this book is two books in one:
- The body of the book is my personal story, which shows how I learned what I believe I now know about how to heal from complex illnesses
- The appendices share what I believe I now know about how to heal
(See below for a list of updated and new appendices!)
What People Have Been Saying
The reviews for the 1st edition have been 5 out of 5 stars, including:
“Tenay provides honesty around healing, the truth of her story and journey, and resources to find and cultivate our own path to peace and wellness. We all have a strong sense of truth when we hear it. This book is full of that and the gift of Tenay’s experience.”
– Amelia
“If you want to keep God in a box, this book is not for you. If you want to hear an amazing testimony of how God spoke and worked to bring healing to one of his precious ones, you should definitely read this!”
– L. Otero
“Such a real, raw, transformative book that totally changed my perspective on the healing journey. I never realized how multi-faceted the journey was. Through reading this book, I’ve been challenged to grapple with my own healing and seek the gentle guidance of “The Voice” of God to pursue my own wholeness.”
– Satisfied customer

When chronic fatigue forced combat veteran Tenay Benes to quit seminary and move back in with her parents, it could have marked the end of her story. Instead, it became the beginning of a miraculous journey guided by an unmistakably healing Voice. As a STEM-educated business professional and former U.S. Army officer trained in logic and discipline, Tenay wrestles with the mystery of divine encounters that help her heal in ways medical providers said she never would.
“Heal or Die” is a raw, powerful memoir of the first five years of Tenay Benes’ multi-year healing journey from debilitating fatigue, tormenting trauma, and mysterious illness to profound emotional, physical, and spiritual restoration. With unflinching honesty and unwavering faith, Tenay invites readers into a deeply personal chronicle of loss, courage, and transformation, one in which the line between Heaven and Earth blurs, and healing isn’t just possible, it’s promised.
