* Brief meditation boosts attention, curbs stress *
Recent studies have suggested that months to years of intensive meditation can
improve attention and lower stress. Researchers now believe that less than one
week of meditation practice with the integrative body-mind meditation training
method can produce noteworthy improvement in attention and ones' state of mind.
The study of 40 Chinese undergraduates found that participation in 20-minute
integrative meditation sessions over 5 days showed greater improvement in
attention and overall mood, and lower levels of anxiety, depression, anger and
fatigue, compared with students in a control group who participated in
relaxation training.

* Energy Psychology *
We are all familiar with the concept of ying and yang, consciousness and
unconsciousness, ebb and flow. In yoga, the asanas (postures) we strive to
perfect with our bodies speak to our deep desire to perfect and unite our mind,
body, and spirit. And yet, often in spite of years of dedicated practice, many
of us find that our mind remains unruly, capricious and, at times, decidedly
unfriendly to our stated goal of peacefulness and calm. Why is that?

Imagination" - By Jon C. Mejia, go to

* Acupressure *
With the discovery that aspirin and other over-the-counter remedies can be
easily abused -- often with dangerous side-effects -- health-conscious people
are beginning to look toward natural alternatives for pain relief and aids to
healing. One of the most effective of these alternatives is known as G-Jo
Acupressure. This ancient Chinese "self-health" technique is a form of
acupuncture without needles. It is safe and natural... and it usually works
instantly to relieve most minor aches, pains, and other discomforts you might
otherwise self-treat with a non-prescription remedy such as aspirin.

* Flexibility *
The following are three ways to test your flexibility. The idea of testing is to
become aware of how tightness with certain muscle groups can lead to injury if
you are not careful during fitness workouts.
Test One: Hamstring Flexibility test
Props needed: tape measure and either a small sticky note or sticky tape.

*** Book Review: The RealAge Makeover: Take Years Off Your Looks and Add Them to
Your Life - By Michael F. Roizen, M.D. ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
Dr. Michael Roizen hopes to discover a cure for the common birthday. The author
of the best-selling book "RealAge" and Oprah guru, Roizen translates
groundbreaking medical research into a series of calculations and choices that
promise to reduce age-linked symptoms and diseases.
"The RealAge Makeover" begins with a self-test of 132 health factor questions
that compare your calendar age with your "real age"; based on healthy habits
plus heredity, he rounds up the usual suspects (sun exposure, sleep patterns,
good fats) as well as the unusual (the kind of chocolate you eat, the number of
nagging unfinished tasks, your catsup consumption). Although Roizen flags
heredity, he focuses on the three key factors of aging: arteries (heart attack,
stroke, memory loss), immune systems (prostate and breast cancer), and
environmental stresses (lung cancer, STDs). He offers a sliding scale of
difficulty in his "younger every day suggestions."
Whether talking about stress, diet, or disease, Roizen offers case examples and
subtle and engaging strategies such as describing the role of living beyond your
means in aging or the difference between "four-legged" and "no-leg fats."
Readers looking for a quick fix will benefit less than those who follow the
recommendations that require focus and commitment. As Baby Boomers age and books
about turning back time increase, Roizen's will remain a standout. --Barbara
Mackoff
