What goes on inside of your body and mind is what will manifest in your outer life. The external always mirrors the internal. When we make changes at the very building block level, our DNA, which we can do with eating habits and food choices, the pieces begin to fall into place inside of us. When we intentionally create balance, health and harmony inside of our bodies, it shows up in all areas of our lives. We often get so ingrained in the habits and lifestyle choices that we have been making, that we forget that we ourselves are the keys to change. Transformation is a way of life. Either we are constantly growing and evolving or we are stuck. Each of us has everything we need to heal and thrive within our reach and within ourselves. Transformation begins with new, enlightened choices. Across multiple wisdom traditions, 40 Days is considered the optimal time period to set permanent change into motion. These 40 days will take you even deeper into the body, mind and spirit. Inspired by the healing sciences of yoga and Ayurveda, you will explore higher ways of living and being. These 40 Days will be a catalyst for profound transformation and enlightened living. Why not begin now?

Millions of us are locked into an unwinnable weight game, as our self-worth is shredded with every diet failure. Combine the utter inefficacy of dieting with the lack of spiritual nourishment and we have generations of mad, ravenous self-loathing women. So says Geneen Roth, in her life-changing new book, Women, Food and God. Since her 1991 bestseller, When Food Is Love, was published, Roth has taken the sum total of her experience and combined it with spirituality and psychology to explain women's true hunger. Roth's approach to eating is that it is the same as any addiction - an activity to avoid feeling emotions. From the first page, readers will be struck by the author's intelligence, humour and sensitivity, as she traces the path of overeating from its subtle beginnings through to its logical end. Whether the drug is booze or brownies, the problem is the same: opting out of life. She powerfully urges readers to pay attention to what they truly need - which cannot be found in a supermarket. She provides seven basic guidelines for eating (the most important is to never diet) and shares reassuring, practical advice that has helped thousands of women who have attended her highly successful seminars. Truly a thinking woman's guide to eating - and an anti-diet book - women everywhere will find insights and revelations on every page.

Based on the first chapter of the Book of Daniel and the original Lenten fast, health journalist Rosemary Ellis presents a healthy alternative to help people save themselves from junk food Armageddon.

Meet your new healthy best friend and yoga guru: Jessica Berger Gross. For years, Jessica struggled with fluctuating weight and bouts of unhappiness. Then she took a yoga class. It changed her life. Not because she suddenly became a human pretzel, but because yoga gave her an entirely new way of looking at the world, and at what she was eating and why she was eating it. The core principles of yoga philosophy offer guidance that leads to eating smartly, living right, and losing weight. In a step-by-step process, this new paperback edition will teach you how these principles, or sutras, can help you to lose the physical weight and gain the emotional wisdom to keep it off. For example: • Truthfulness, or satya, requires the yogi to be honest. Maybe you already eat salad for lunch, but if you're throwing in chunks of breaded chicken and cheese, you're not really watching your weight. • Moderation, or brahmacarya, suggests that you make being only three-quarters full the new “I'm stuffed.” You'll be surprised at how well it works. • Nonviolence, or ahimsa, sets out a compelling case for a vegetarian diet, or at least the need to eat only free-range, ethically-produced meat, and less of it. Go beyond trendy diets, unsustainable exercise routines, and the quest for the “perfect” figure. With spiritual philosophy and an inspiring personal story, enLIGHTened will set you on a journey to self-acceptance, peace, and long-term health.
