Simply Well
Humans are image-making creatures. In "Put Yourself in the Picture of Health" John W. Travis, M.D., M.P.H., explains how images create emotional states that affect brain chemistry, and brain chemistry will depress or strengthen every system in your body, including your immune system. No wonder visualization is such a powerful tool for personal wellness.

Keeping Fit
It is reported that the average American experiences a 7-pound weight gain between Thanksgiving and New Year's, then spends the next several weeks trying to lose as much of the excess as possible. Unfortunately, many people are unsuccessful in their weight reduction efforts. Most would agree that it is better to prevent unwanted weight gain than to remedy the situation later. In "Survival Strategies for the Holiday Season" Dr. Wayne Westcott offers suggestions to avoid overeating and recommends an exercise emphasis during this critical time of year.

Conscious Relationships
Jealousy is impossible to deal with in close relationships because it's not real. In "How to Get Free of Jealousy Part I" Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks explain that the only way to handle jealousy in the real world of relationships is to shift your state of consciousness so that you can see jealousy for what it really is - You're afraid of losing the love of the other person.

Healthy Bookstore - The Hidden Messages in Water

Imagine if water could absorb feelings and emotions or be transformed by thoughts. Imagine if we could photograph the structure of water at the moment of freezing and from the image "read" a message about the water that is relevant to our own health and well-being on the planet. Imagine if we could show the direct consequences of destructive thoughts or, alternately, the thoughts of love and appreciation. "The Hidden Messages in Water" by Dr. Masaru Emoto introduces readers to the revolutionary work of this Japanese scientist, who discovered that molecules of water are affected by thoughts, words, and feelings. Dr. Emoto shares his realizations from his years of research and explains the profound implications on the healing of water, mankind, and earth.
