Food and Nutrition : What Everyone Needs to Know (R) (9780190846633)

From gluten-free to all-Paleo, GMOs to grass-fed beef, our newsfeeds abound with nutrition advice. Whether sensational headlines from the latest study or anecdotes from celebrities and food bloggers, we're bombarded with "superfoods" and "best ever" diets promising to help us lose weight, fight disease, and live longer. At the same time, we live in an over-crowded food environment that makes it easy to eat, all the time. The result is an epidemic of chronic disease amidst a culture of nutrition confusion-and copious food choices that challenge everyday eaters just trying to get a healthy meal on the table. But the exhilarating truth is that scientists know an astounding amount about the power of food. A staggering 80% of chronic diseases are preventable through modifiable lifestyle changes, and diet is the single largest contributing factor. And we also know the secrets to eating sustainably to protect our planet. In Food & Nutrition, Harvard- and Columbia-...

Queering the Tarot (9781578636488)

Tarot is best used as a tool for self-discovery, healing, growth, empowerment, and liberation. Tarot archetypes provide the reader with a window into present circumstances and future potential. But what if that window only opened up on a world that was white, European, and heterosexual? The interpretations of the tarot that have been passed down through tradition presuppose a commonality and normalcy among humanity. At the root of card meanings are archetypes that we accept without questioning. But at what point do archetypes become stereotypes? Humanity is diverse--culturally, spiritually, sexually. Tarot has the power to serve a greater population, with the right keys to unlock the tarot's deeper meanings. In Queering the Tarot, Cassandra Snow deconstructs the meanings of the 78 cards explaining the ways in which each card might be interpreted against the norm. Queering the Tarot explores themes of sexuality, coming out, gender and gender-queering, sources of oppression and empow...

La ciencia del yoga : toda la verdad sobre los beneficios y los riesgos del ejercicio de moda (9788423348305)

El yoga se ha convertido en el oxígeno del alma moderna que vive a toda velocidad por el ritmo de la vida cotidiana. Sus bondades recorren todo el mundo y cada vez hay más maestros que enseñan la disciplina. Sin embargo, esta creciente popularidad puede conllevar la banalización de la técnica y la exageración de sus efectos. William J. Broad, periodista científico y practicante habitual de yoga desde hace más de treinta años, se respalda en la ciencia para separar lo que resulta realmente efectivo de lo que sólo es una falsa creencia, y revisa con riguroso espíritu científico las supuestas transformaciones del cuerpo y del alma que produce el yoga: la curación emocional, la tonificación muscular, la remisión de las depresiones o la exaltación del placer sexual. Así, con un enfoque eminentemente práctico, Broad compila todo el conocimiento actual sobre el yoga e ilustra las principales posturas y técnicas que previenen lesiones y malas prácticas, centrándose en lo que la ciencia nos dic...

Committed : A Skeptic Makes Peace with Marriage (9780670021659)

The #1 New York Times bestselling follow-up to Eat Pray Love--an intimate and erudite celebration of love from the author of Big Magic and City of Girls. At the end of her bestselling memoir Eat, Pray, Love, Elizabeth Gilbert fell in love with Felipe, a Brazilian-born man of Australian citizenship who'd been living in Indonesia when they met. Resettling in America, the couple swore eternal fidelity to each other, but also swore to never, ever, under any circumstances get legally married. (Both were survivors of previous bad divorces. Enough said.) But providence intervened one day in the form of the United States government, which-after unexpectedly detaining Felipe at an American border crossing-gave the couple a choice: they could either get married, or Felipe would never be allowed to enter the country again. Having been effectively sentenced to wed, Gilbert tackled her fears of marriage by delving into this topic completely, trying with all her might to discover through histori...

Excerpt from Boxing, a Manual Devoted to the Art of Self-Defence: A Perfect Treatise on Boxing, With Valuable Illustrations Showing Just What Positions to Take When Going to Lead and Also in Relation to Defence There is no exercise that will so surely cultivate activity, endur ance and strength, as boxing. Besides being an excellent school for the nerves and temper, it also develops the body, gives symmetry to the parts, and grace to the movements. Boxing has been called brutal those who hold that view look only at the worst aspect of the means; being an expert boxer does not tempt one to bully or fight, any more than being an expert pen man would tempt a person to commit forgery. Our experience has been, that the best boxers are generally men of great forbearance un der provocation, and we are satisfied that the knowledge of boxing, renders men not quarrelsome, but forbearing; for they feel that it is glorious to possess a giant's strength, but cowardly to use it like a giant. It ...
