God's Diet: A Short and Simple Way to Eat Naturally, Lose Weight, and Live a Healthier Life
Author: Dorothy Gault McNeme
Finally, the end to fad diets!
We've all tried the impossible-to-maintain trendy diets that often deliver immediate results only to backfire the moment our vigilance wanes. God's Diet is the only diet you'll ever need. And once you become accustomed to healthy eating, this "diet" will simply become your new lifestyle. Learn the absolute way to sustained weight loss by adopting a complete, delicious, natural diet. There are no annoying calculations, no food exchanges — no fall-off-the-wagon syndrome. Dr. Gault-McNemee teaches you:
God's Diet is the solution to chronic dieting because it relies on the simplest, most tried-and-true food path to health and healthy eating — one our society has chosen to ignore for decades. Just remember, if God didn't make it, don't eat it!
Library Journal
Gault-McNemee, a physician in New Mexico who had been overweight most of her life, developed this unconventional diet "knowing that there really had to be a healthy way to eat good food and feel satisfied." The result of her own struggles and of working with overweight patients in her practice, this book, which she first self-published in 1996, uses as its guideline the motto "If God didn't make it, don't eat it." In other words, we should limit our intake to what we can pick, pluck, scale, or butcher. The book argues that we are slowly killing ourselves by what we eat, especially refined sugar; another section gives case examples from the author's patients showing how effective the diet has been for them. A large part of the book is devoted to recipes; Gault-McNemee also includes lists of allowable foods, forbidden foods, and swing foods--not all good, not all bad, and to be used sparingly. Her presentation is logical, building a convincing case for this lifelong eating plan. For consumer health collections and in public libraries. [Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 9/1/99.]--Mary J.

Wisdom Chi Kung
Author: Mantak Chia
HEALTH / MARTIAL ARTS
Wisdom Chi Kung teaches practitioners how to revitalize the brain: to repair function, increase memory, and expand capacity. Every day we use up so much of our brain’s power that we have very little left at the end of the day. By thinking or worrying too much, the brain can use up to 80 percent of the body’s entire energy reserve. Learning to stop the brain, to empty the mind from the ceaseless chatter of the “monkey mind,” and then recharge it with chi energy can increase our mental capacity, focus, and clarity.
Using the Inner Smile meditation technique, practitioners learn how to recharge the brain with chi energy in a form that is most useful. Practitioners smile and empty the mind into the lower tan tien and the organs. The organs then transform this chi energy. When the mind is empty, the energy transformed by the organs is sent back to the brain to revitalize it. This process synchronizes the left and right brain by activating and tapping in to the body’s energetic potentials. As the mind continues to empty, receive, and also enhance the transformed chi energy, it is able to open itself to connect with universal chi energies and fill the body with enhanced life force.
A student of several Taoist masters, MANTAK CHIA founded the Universal Healing Tao System in 1979 and has taught and certified tens of thousands of students and instructors from all over the world.
