* A Healthy New Year: Myths and Mantras for 2008 -- Three Myths About
Post-Holiday Weight Loss -- and Three Solutions *
Now that the new year is upon us, many of us can't even look in the mirror
without thinking how much weight we've gained over the holidays.
Some fat over here, some fat over there and voila -- our expensive wardrobe does
not fit us anymore.
In light of this revelation, we have two choices: either replace the $5,000-plus
wardrobe, or get back on a regimen that takes off the weight in the region that
we are trying to make leaner, smaller and more attractive. For gentlemen, of
course, this means attaining the all-admired six-pack abdominals. For ladies,
this means thinner arms, hips and legs.

* Tests That Could Save Women's Lives: Specialist Gets Specific About The Main
Ones; They're Meant To Catch Ailments Early *
There are numerous potentially life-saving medical tests that women should be
getting on a regular basis and, with the new year here, there's no better time
than now to start scheduling them.
On The Early Show Wednesday, Dr. Rebecca Brightman, an obstetrician-gynecologist
at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City, pointed to the ones no woman
should skip. The sooner a screening spots an ailment, the sooner treatment can
begin and, generally, the better the odds that the treatment can be effective.

* Organize your way out of stress *
From the outside, Kimberley Mims' Snellville home is immaculate. But look behind
the garage door and it's a different story.
"I'm trying to get better organized," Mims admits while apologizing for the
mess.
Garden tools are piled next to books and boxes filled with everything from old
sewing patterns to family memorabilia. In order to get into the house, Mims has
to watch her step while climbing over piles of clutter.

* Needle Phobia More Common Than Many Believe: Help for Needle Fear That Leads
Sufferers to Avoid Essential Medical, Dental Care *
It's a phobia that filmmakers have loved for years. At a tense moment, someone,
usually a man, sees a needle and crumples to the floor.
But it wasn't until 1997 that the mental health community officially recognized
needle phobia in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,
thanks largely to an article by physician James Hamilton.
Now, mental health experts estimate that needle phobia, sometimes called
belonephobia, may affect up to 10 percent of the population -- and it may even
be inherited.

* Spiritual Healing *
Is there someone in your life who gets on your nerves?
In your search for inner peace, as well as for world peace, you may find
yourself feeling obstructed by the actions and intentions of others. We tend to
idealize peace as a pastel vision of children skipping in a slow motion circle,
holding hands and laughing... until the phone rings and the person on the other
end tries to sell you something you don't want and you snap at them. Suddenly
something occurs to you. There are other people out there who seem to be messing
up your creation.

* Gratitude *
Have you ever caught yourself vigorously complaining about something you felt
you couldn't do anything about? Have you ever told yourself you needed to quit
complaining, only to find yourself in the same old complaining scenario the very
next day? I'm not talking about dissatisfaction that motivates us to look for
creative ideas or solutions. And, I don't mean ordinary challenges that help us
grow. I'm talking about needless complaining that serves absolutely no purpose
because you can't do anything about it. Or, maybe it isn't you who's the
habitual complainer -- maybe it's someone you know.

* Arteries *
The holidays are gone and you are left with plenty of wonderful memories: time
spent with your family and friends, sharing presents with your loved ones, lots
of parties, and as part of all those gatherings, why not, memories of
mouthwatering meals and desserts such as cakes, tarts, pies, pastries,
chocolate, ice cream, and cookies among others.
However, as a new year begins, the thought of all those "goodies" you ate starts
to make you a little uneasy because deep inside, you have a feeling they were
not the healthiest foods for you. And you know you ate a lot of them!

*** Book Review: Gaining: The Truth About Life After Eating Disorders – By Aimee
Liu ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
Thirty years after Liu penned "Solitaire" documenting her teenage experience
with anorexia nervosa, she recounts her midlife relapse and recovery. Liu
exposes many myths surrounding eating disorders, with a combination of research
and in-depth interviews with other former anorexics and bulimics. She interviews
men and women of various cultural and economic backgrounds to refute the notion
that anorexia and bulimia affect only "modern rich white girls."
Liu's interviewees range from Rob, a 50-year-old physician, to Jessica, an
Australian 25-year-old aspiring actress. Liu devotes many chapters to the impact
of family on the anorexic or bulimic, contradicting the accepted belief that the
victim is "the sick one"; rather, she locates the starting point of the disease
in genetics, family life, shame, and personality. Like other victims, Liu finds
a history of mental disorders in her family, ranging from alcoholism to
obsessive-compulsive disorder.
According to Liu, a manifestation of an eating disorder is a call for help and
should be treated as early as possible, and she fleshes out facts and statistics
with her personal interviews, making this book poignant even for those who have
not suffered from an eating disorder. (Copyright © Reed Business Information, a
