I am currently reading the book, 10-10-10: A life Transforming Idea by Suzy Welch. The book is based on the idea that before making a decision, you consider the consequences of your decision in 10 minutes, 10 months and 10 years. This gives you a blueprint for seeing things from several different perspectives, prior to making the decision. Ms. Welch discusses how she discovered this approach, how it has helped her and how to put this approach into action. She gives numerous examples of how this process has successfully helped many people to make important decisions concerning relationships, career, money, etc. The author talks about ways to discover your values and your dreams and how to use these values and dreams when making decisions. I like the book and am trying to apply the method to my life. Check-out: www.suzywelch101010.com/ Also, you might take a look at the following books: Who Moved My Cheese; Peaks and Valleys; Yes or No: The Guide to Better Decisions. All 3 by Spencer Johnson, MD. -Glenn
Taken from www.GlennIsGreen.com and www.JewishCoolStuff.com and www.GlennIsHere.com Two Excellent Books •Anticancer, by David Servan-Schreiber, MD, PhD. 2nd Edition. The author, also a cancer survivor, has written about foods and habits that can help one to survive cancer or prevent it. www.anticancerways.com. •Healing Spices, How to Use 50 Everyday and Exotic Spices To Boost Health and Beat Disease by Bharat B. Aggarwal, PhD with Debora Yost. Quinoa for BreakfastI really like Quinoa! Easy to make and tasty. I have been having organic quinoa and organic oatmeal with soymilk, ground flaxseeds, and cinnamon for breakfast. I also really like Chia Seeds. Enjoy. -Glenn Some key ideas that I have seen in a number of books on health, weight loss and nutrition: (1) Eat calorie sparse foods but nutrient dense foods. When you eat a chocolate bar or even a nutrition bar, they have calories concentrated in “small packages.” You can eat this quite fast and still feel hungry and you have eaten lost of calories. Compare this with eating a salad with lots of vegetables. To get the same amount of calories, you would need to eat a lot more salad . The salad has lots of nutrients, but is calorie sparse. And the size of the salad will fill up your stomach and make you feel full. Additionally, it takes longer to eat the salad than a candy bar, so this also gives you body the chance to register the “I have eaten and I feel full” signal. See the Book: Eat To Live by Joel Fuhrman, MD. (2) Eat slowly and more mindfully (pay attention/savor the foods) See the Book: Eating Mindfully: How to End Mindless Eating and Enjoy a Balanced Relationship with Food by Susan Albers (3) Exercise (4) Practice relaxation, meditation, guided imagery, Tai Chi, Yoga, Qigong, Breathing Exercises, etc. (5) Decrease consumption of animal products. Eat more plant foods. Look at books, such as Eat To Live, The China Study, Healthy at 100, etc. (6) Don’t overeat. See for example, The Life-Transforming Diet By David J. Zulberg. Smaller dishes= smaller portions= better for you. (7) Don’t buy the junk food that you binge on and can’t stop eating. I use this one. Some Helpful Stuff: Hope this information is useful to you. -Glenn Book: The Kind Life Should You Add More Vegetarian Meals to Your Diet? Be A Vegan? Do Your Food Choices Make an Impact on the Environment? Looking for Some Vegetarian Recipes? Do You Want to Make a Conscious Decision? Do You Want to Eat Healthier Foods? Do You Want to Learn About Foods You May Never Have Heard About? Alicia Silverstone, actor and vegan, has written, The Kind Life. The book discusses her views on being a vegan and the larger societal context of the way we treat animals, and how our food choices impact the environment and our health. As someone who is edging closer to being a vegetarian, I found the book to be great. But, the the book is useful for anyone looking to add more vegetarian/vegan meals to their diet, by showing simple steps to take to achieve this. And for those wishing to go vegan, the book will serve you well. Check-out the recipes and the suggestions for substitutions in recipes. Additionally, the author discusses her views on being a vegan and the impact on our lives and the world. This is good because whether or not you share this point of view, we all need to make conscious decisions. The book also profiles health pioneers who espouse similar viewpoints and other’s living “the kind life,” such as a body builder who is a vegan. For me, I found the book really helpful because it introduced me to a host of different foods that I knew little about, as well as recipes to incorporate these foods and foods that I currently eat. So, whether you are looking to go vegan or just to add some more vegetarian meals to your diet, whether you agree or disagree with the views expressed in the book, or just want to make conscious decisions, the Kind Life is a realy good book to check-out. -Glenn WaterCress & Pea Shoots I recently started eating WaterCress. I bought a hydroponically grown one that still had its roots intact. It is great; it has a spicy flavor and I really like it. I bought it at Whole Foods. I think a hydroponically grown product can be a good alternative if you can’t find an organic product or the organic product is too expensive. And I have been eating Pea Shoots. I like them, too. I get them from Trader Joe’s. Organic and Yummy. I Found these website via a google search: www.watercress.com and www.peashoots.com. A few other products that I have been eating are ground flaxseeds, organic pure cocoa, cinnamon, chia seeds, ginger, and been making some cool tea mixes. I guess, “Go Green” has a dual meaning. -Glenn Heathly Eating and Weight Loss: Resources The Kind Diet: A Simple Guide to Feeling Great, Losing Weight, and Saving the Planet (Alicia Silverstone) www.TheKindLife.com -Glenn www.GlennIsGreen.com Copyright Glenn of GlennIsGreen.com.

59 Seconds: Change Your Life in Under a Minute by Richard Wiseman. I am really enjoying reading this book. The topics are both fun and interesting. It is written by a psychologist from England. The book grows out of the author’s friend, a busy management consultant, asking if the author could come up with ways, supported by science, to improve her life. But, she says she would only have about one minute to review the information. And so the premise for this book is born. The author discusses a variety of topics: creativity, attraction, relationships, happiness, stress, decision making, parenting and more. In each topic, he presents a variety of psychological studies to support his conclusions and then follows it up with a 59 second summary. The book challenges some familiar notions regarding each of these topics. Find out how to do well a speed dating. Ways to be more effective at solving problems. Do well at your next job interview A color increase creativity. How acts of kindness can make your happier. And a lot more. So, check it out! -Glenn Founder, www.StopComputerVirus.com Antivirus Software www.YouNeedSoftware.com Software and More www.JewishCoolStuff.com Jewish Interest www.SaveMoneyDental.com Discount Dental Plans Thanks for Shopping Buy! Check-out “Crave One Add Two” from Prevention.com. It is one of my favorite simple ways to lose weight. And it is not a gimmick. Basically, when you eat, including snacks, you eat 3 things, one of which is a protein. Check out the article. Originally, a nutritionist wanted her clients to eat more variety. But, when they tried this, they also lost weight. -Glenn Founder, www.JewishCoolStuff.com Jewish Interest www.SaveMoneyDental.com Discount Dental Plans www.StopComputerVirus.com Antivirus Software Thanks for Shopping Buy!
