Ayurvedic and Macrobiotic Principles

"We can't live life without experiencing some form of pain; it is part of the human experience." ~Bruce Eric Van HornThe beauty of this book is that it is pain free. You can actually listen to this book on the CD (which includes two music tracks) "or" read it. So, if you are driving to work you can happily watch the road. If you take the bus, you will have the added benefit of seeing all the cute cartoons and pictures in this book.Some of the cartoons are way more funny after listening to the CD. I was looking through the book reading while listening. Multitasking! You could probably listen to this CD while you were going through yoga poses if you are pressed for time. The Contents: 1. Introduction to Healthy Eating2. Four Step Program for Individual and Organizational Wellness: Humor, Art, Music, Self Acceptance3. Cooking Utensils4. Food Choices5. Recipes6. Determining Your Dietary Archetype7. Combining the Very Best 8. Andrew Weil Discusses Organic Foods9. Adding More Soy in the Diet10. Ten Step Program to End Food AddictionsI found this book to be very healing. It is rather unique. The vegetarian lifestyle does go against the Atkins-type diets although he does talk about decreasing "carbohydrates." Bruce Eric Van Horn seems to be a Pesce-Vegetarians (sometimes called Pescetarians). He does eat fish. He addressed such questions as: Why is the American diet mostly: Sweet, Sour and Salt? Why do we leave out bitter, astringent and pungent? It just seems that is how we cook or eat out. How do you look at food preparation as a meditative state? He also makes recommendations for more healthy living: Increasing soybean products, fish and eating 5 servings of fruit and vegetables a day protect against cancer. It is easy to add soy into your diet with protein shakes and health bars. You can also mix tofu with fruit juice and yogurt for a delicious shake. At least those are some of my ideas that go beyond "just tofu." If you are looking for a recipe book, this book is not a book filled with soy recipes. The author mostly presents lifestyle choices. If you need some fun soy drink recipes, feel free to contact me from my site. Yes, TOFU can be quite delicious in a drink. ~TheRebeccReview.com
