Emotional Health and Healing
Avg.
Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com:
Christiane Northrup’s vision of mind-body
wellness has received an extraordinary response from women all over the world.
Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom
powerfully demonstrates that when women change the basic conditions of their
lives that lead to health problems, they heal faster, more completely, and
with far fewer medical interventions.
Dr. Northrup brings us vital information about
the best techniques of Western medicine and the best alternative therapies,
showing how to incorporate both into a complementary whole. She guides readers
through the entire range of women’s health problems and offers innovative,
positive perspectives on normal processes, such as menstruation, pregnancy,
and menopause. This edition includes:
• A comprehensive program for menopause,
including how to decide whether natural hormone
replacement is right for you
Filled with dramatic case histories from her
medical practice in Maine,
Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom
is contemporary medicine at its best, combining new technologies with natural
remedies and the miraculous healing powers within the body itself.

Fit from Within: 101 Secrets to Change Your Body and Your Life
Avg.
Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com:
Victoria Moran wasn't always as slim and serene
as she appears now. For 33 years, she "lunged" at food, bingeing and dieting,
rarely losing weight for more than a few weeks at a time. Then 18 years ago,
she adopted the principles of self-acceptance, self-nurturing, and
spirituality she describes in this book--and lost 60 pounds for good. She
learned to live without obsessing about either weight or food, relying on
"grace and good sense."
Moran's 101 "simple secrets"--each two to three
pages long--are sometimes obvious, sometimes provocative, sometimes profound.
Some, like "accept yourself today," "walk more," and "get a support system"
seem self-evident, but Moran digs into the psychological components that might
be holding you back. A few seem unusual, such as "in the beginning, eat out"
(reason: when you eat in a restaurant, it's clear when the meal is over) and
"visit an art museum" (to recognize the beauty of voluptuous women). Moran's
style is warm, welcoming, and strong, like a good friend who has found the
answers you seek and won't let you off the hook. Highly recommended for
emotional eaters who are ready to change the behavior and attitudes that are
stopping them from reaching their goals.

Real Gorgeous: The Truth About
Body and Beauty
Avg.
Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com:
Kaz Cooke knew women needed a book that cut
through the confusing and cruel messages about body image, beauty, eating
disorders, diets, and cosmetic surgery. "Mostly, we needed a book that wasn't
trying to sell us anything except self-confidence and the truth," says Cooke.
"I couldn't find one so I had to write one." Written in the spirit of life,
liberty, and the pursuit of body acceptance, Cooke playfully challenges some
of the most oppressive misogynists of the 20th century: the beauty, fashion,
and diet industries. Simultaneously funny and reassuring, Cooke boldly asserts
her opinions and research on push-up bras (they dig and hurt), cellulite (it's
a cosmetic company-induced condition, not a medical condition), and fashion
models ("some of the most insecure, tortured souls around"). The cartoon
illustrations offer comic and compassionate accents to this poignant
discussion.

Dunster's plaintive violin, guitar, and flute
bring to life music that ranges from relaxing to invigorating as successive
tracks move through the chakras. Excellent not only for yoga practice, this is
music anyone can enjoy.

From Amazon.com:
As learned from the broad-based popularity of
his previous albums, people turn to saxophonist Boney James to do one thing:
create sultry audio backdrops well suited for mingling, small talk, and
romantic notions. James, rotating between tenor, soprano, and alto saxophones,
faithfully delivers more of those goods on this, his sixth album. The mood
sustained throughout all nine tracks (42-plus minutes runtime) is urbane,
low-key, and cue-ball smooth. Chelle Davis provides breathy background vocals
on the slow-grooving opening track, "Are You Ready?" and R&B crooners Shai
take a more foreground role on the sweetly disarming "I'll Always Love You."
Perhaps the album's most attractive cut is the slow urban crawl of "Boneyizm,"
with subdued interplay between James's tenor sax and Rick Braun's flügelhorn.
Nothing shrill, outrageous, new, or significant awaits here, simply an
engaging and pleasant listen.

Sound Body, Sound Mind
is a phenomenal experience. Dr. Andrew Weil, trailblazing pioneer in the field
of integrative medicine and a bestselling author, teams with Anna Wise, a
leading authority on brain waves and healing. Together with producer-composer
Joshua Leeds, they collaborate on a peerless sound and healing experience.
Utilizing psychoacoustics, the trio has created an hour of music chosen to
enhance the listener's well-being and sense of health by specifically
addressing brain waves. On disc 1, Dr. Weil guides the listener through a
meditation followed by music based on the themes of Bach, Brahms, Mahler, and
Mozart. Combined with healing sound frequencies, the overall effect
facilitates the listener's experience of "the deep," an encounter of complete
safety and harmony. The second disc is a fascinating discussion by the
aforementioned trio on psychoacoustics and the making of the music.

From Amazon.com: In the
sensible yet elegant hands of actresses Helen Mirren and Julie Walters,
Calendar Girls
walks a fine line between sappiness and snickering and ends up both
wonderfully funny and gently touching. When her best friend Annie (Walters,
Billy Elliot) loses her husband, Chris (Mirren,
Prime Suspect,
Gosford Park) cooks up a scheme to
memorialize him: They and their friends--all fiftysomething women--will make a
nude calendar to raise money for the hospital where he died. The calendar
becomes hugely popular, but the success may drive a wedge between the two
women's friendship. Based on an actual event,
Calendar Girls
carefully balances the stories of several women as it follows the calendar's
media explosion, becoming a surprisingly moving fable of loss, determination,
and the perils of fame. And let's face it--Helen Mirren is one of the wittiest
and sexiest women alive, clothes on or not.

Classical Pilates Technique
(2003) ~
DVD
Avg. Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com: Although
the
Classical Pilates Technique
DVDs were not shot in an exotic location or on a luxurious set, these are the
finest Pilates DVDs on the market. They exhibit the high standards of
instruction required of all who were trained in the tradition of Romana
Kryzanowska. In Ms. Ungaro's directions, I have found a new path to familiar
routines and with my own students, I now use many of the powerful images that
Mr. Liekens delivers throughout his voiceovers. Two of the DVDs in the
collection include discussions, from which much additional information about
the Pilates method can be learned. All in all, this collection of Pilates
instruction remains unsurpassed.

Body Heat
(1981) ~ DVD
Avg. Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com:
While scoring high-profile
credits as a screenwriter (including
The Empire Strikes Back,
Return of the Jedi, and
Raiders of the Lost Ark), Lawrence Kasdan
made his directorial debut with this steamy, contemporary film noir in the
tradition of
Double Indemnity and other classics from
the 1940s. In one of his most memorable roles, William Hurt plays a Florida
lawyer unwittingly drawn into a web of deceit spun by Kathleen Turner (in her
screen debut) as a married socialite who plots to kill off her husband with
Hurt's assistance. Kasdan's dialogue is a hoot (sometimes it borders on
satire), and the sultry atmosphere is a perfect complement to the
perspiration-soaked chemistry between Hurt and Turner, whose love scenes
caused quite a stir when the film was released in 1981. John Barry's
score sets the provocative mood, and both Ted
Danson and Mickey Rourke are splendid in memorable supporting roles. | |||||||||
