Food for Thought – News Fast & Suggested Reading
Hi All,
I was listening to a podcast last week, by Alwyn Cosgrove and he talked about nutritionally that if you put garbage into your body you will get a garbage response from your body. I listened to this concept and I chose to consider a different aspect of our lives and that is what do we feed our minds.
Over 10 years ago I made a decision to go on a news fast. No TV, no radio, no newspaper. I made that choice because I found that I never felt better after being informed by one of those media sources. As I heard Dr. Christiane Northrup say our nervous system was not designed to take the bad news of the world and run in through our system multiple times a day or in some cases all day long with the all news channels that are available now.
Also, a vast majority of what you see and hear and read you cannot do anything to change anyway. I now pick up the sports page from time to time these days. With the paper I can choose what I want to read. I do continue to stay away from the TV and radio news and my life is so much more enjoyable. Ask yourself if you feel better after you have read, listened to or watched the news.
I also wanted to share with you some of the most influential books and resources that have changed the way I think and live.
Fast Food Nation – By Eric Schlosser. It is a very well researched book on the Fast Food Industry that will make you think twice about eating Fast Food.
The Biology of Belief – By Dr. Bruce Lipton. Bruce, a cellular biologist, uses his research to show us that our thoughts and attitudes have more of an impact on our health and well being than our DNA. It may be a while before this shows up in the textbooks…….
The Medical Mafia – How to Get Out of It Alive and Take Back Our Health & Wealth – By Dr. Guylaine Lancot. Guylaine practiced medicine in Canada, France and the US and was disenchanted with what she found so she looked further and found many alternatives to conventional medicine’s drugs and surgery.
Enjoy,
Coach G
