courage to change al anon book: Change One John Hastings, Peter Jaret, Mindy G. Hermann, 2003 Devised by leading weight loss experts, this is an easy-to-live with 12-week programme with no calorie counting It works by slowly introducing subtle changes to your eating and lifestyle habits, one at a time, so that you acquire the habits and mindset necessary to lose weight and keep it off. During each week of the programme, you simply change one element of your eating habits. For example, in week I replace your usual breakfast with one of the Change One breakfasts, and continue to eat what you normally do for lunch and dinner. In week 2, in addition to eating the Change One breakfasts, you will replace your usual lunch with one of the recipes offered in the book. At the end of 4 weeks, you will have replaced all your usual meals with the healthy, calorie-counted options in Change One and will have built up the habit of healthier eating.

Instead of concentrating on not eating, the emphasis here is on following a healthy eating plan that means you can still eat your favourite foods and you don't need to go hungry.

courage to change al anon book: Desiderata Max Ehrmann, 2002-10 Written 75 years ago, Desiderata achieved fame as the anthem of the sixties' hippie-dom - the subject of many millions of posters and handbills - and famously narrated by Les Crane in his 1971 song version of the poem. Over the years Desiderata has provided a kind and gentle philosophy, a refreshing perspective on life's bigger picture. This new presentation of the prose poem will bring it to the attention of a new generation. The origins of Desiderata were, for many years, shrouded in mystery. Once thought to have originated from St. Paul's Church in Baltimore, Maryland in the seventeenth century it was later discovered that American poet Max Ehrmann had written it in 1927. Presented in a refreshingly modern design, Desiderata will appeal to a younger generation looking to find the meaning of life, and to baby-boomers who'll recall Desiderata from their youth. |

courage to change al anon book: Journey on the Four Hills G.R.G.M. MD, 2012-06-13 Life is often viewed as a continuum that is judged by its ultimate outcome. In contrast, native Americans view life as a journey over four symbolic hills. Birth to teenage; Teenage to early manhood; Early manhood to age maturity; (and most important) The Fourth Hill In Journey on the Four Hills, the author relates the lessons learned in his lifes journey. In relating the way love and fear bent his life, G.R.G.M. leaves a powerful, personal legacy that gives insight into a spiritual life and the lessons that shaped it. Journey on the Four Hills defies characterization: part autobiography, part self-help, part spiritual, and part just plain wisdom. |
