Why Marsha is Gorgeous

For those of you who don't read my sister's blog or have not gotten a chance, let me sum up.  My sister has been damned by the media quite a few times about her weight.  And the other day she was damned by a basketball coach (who I'm guessing is quite uneducated, and yes if somehow you get a hold of this and can read English, I am talking about you).  So Marsh, takes offense to this because she has worked quite hard for her body, and she is sill refferenced as fat every once and a while.

First and foremost I'm g...Read more

Peaceful Warrior

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkGvT_iS2fM "Sometimes you have to lose your mind before you come to your senses"

"All you need to do is be conscious about your choice and be responsible for your actions"

Those of you who have not read the book The Way of the Peaceful WarriorI highly suggest that you watch this movie.  Obviously the book is much better like always, but I realize many just don't have the patience to read.  ...Read more

Love vs. Attachment

This is a topic that I feel is quite striking and quite interesting for many to grasp.  I don't think in today's society we truly know how to decipher between the two of these.  When we as humans "fall in love" is this "love" or possibly "attachment."  Like most things in life, there is no right or wrong answer, just or own perception of what is right or wrong.  It is my perception that everything in life is debatable which is why we truly don't really have facts.  If we did we wouldn't ignore...Read more

How to Save the World Part II

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C14-SrSv270 My last post on this topic brought out a very good discussion amongst the fellow alive not deaders.  One discussion was on population control, and I just wanted to start this blog off by addressing this "situation."  Yes population is an issue, but we only have this much of a population because of the use of oil.  Without oil we would have under 1 billion humans on earth.  It is only with the deve...Read more

The I Heart Organic Story

I have had a project that I Have been working on since last year which is now a website coming through.  I Heart Organic is what will link the health and green worlds together.

You see I often have clients that say "where do I eat?" and after a few too many asking me the same questions, I decided to have a new way of getting this information.

I heart organic started as a name f...Read more

How to Save the World

Its really quite simple, but we like to make it hard.  Does no one see the irony that our very own world needs saving?  Yet in our society we still can't admit we are in deep, deep shit.  The US president never says the words "global warming," instead he calls it "climate change."  I'm pretty sure we have more then a climate change in our hands if we are having tornadoes in Brooklyn.  A Hurricane is hitting Hawaii!

The health of our planet is being threatened and we aren't doing so little about it...Read more

Does Modern Medicine Work?

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPI7zdGdqo4 Dr. Mercola is one of my favorite alternative health practitioners.  His site delivers lots of good material, but like most sites he has some sponsors that I don't agree with.

The statistics in this video are quite shocking.  Most would argue that Mercola is crazy or exaggerating, but I would like to ask "Is He?".  We are approaching an time where 1 in 2 die from cancer or is obese.  Conv...Read more

What foods are good for me?

Like I'm going to give you a straight answer!  There is no straight answer.

First and foremost I want to tell you that there is no answer to this question.  The only answer is "the foods that make your body feel good."  Now this is when this gets tricky.  If there is one philosophical explanation for nutrition it is this "One man's medicine is another man's poison."  I think if you truly understand and take this quote into play you will have an excellent diet.

10,000 years ago we did...Read more

Is Cardio Worth Your Time?

Recently I visited Hong Kong and released my book The Real Skinny.  My sister Marsha was the model for the book and my mother was kind enough as to translate the book to Chinese.  The book release was at the HK Book fair, and it was a pleasure being there.

In this blog I wanted to address the common misconception of "cardio cures all."  I work with clients for years and still don'...Read more

Travel

In the past 2 weeks I have been MIA and pretty much away from internet.  It has been awesome.  I highly recommend everyone do it at least once a year.  I try to do it at least once a year and it is a good experience esp for those who are business people or always on their phones etc.

Allow me to sum up my trip and add a little philosophical bit for everyone since that is how I like to write.

Beautiful place and my 2nd visit.  I spent most of my time in Koh Samui.  A beautiful island in the norther coast of Thailand.  ...Read more
