Sugar Shock Blog: Contest to Help Me Come Up With A New Name to Reflect Broader Interests Here

Please, I need your help! Put your thinking caps on. Get those creative juices rolling!

I’ve been ignoring the overwhelming truth: We’ve outgrown the name Sugar Shock Blog. Which is why I’m coming to you for help — I want your ideas on what the heck to call this blog!

Read on, because I have an enticement and awards to get you to contribute ideas!

You see, just as I recently realized that it was imperative to rename my Stop Sugar Shock Radio Show to the Gab With the Gurus Radio Show to more accurately reflect the broader range of subjects covered, it’s evident that I need to change the title of this blog. And pronto. (More like yesterday, a year ago and then some.)

The name, Sugar Shock Blog, doesn’t cut it anymore. For the most part, the title fit perfectly when I began it more than three years ago. (Read my very first entry here on June 7, 2005. But, let me contradict myself — shortly after the blog debuted, I already posted an item about the power of humor — nothing to do with sugar!)

So for years, this blog has outgrown its "Sugar Shock Blog" title. How can such a title reflect the enormous scope of topics covered here, such as:

  • Health & Wellness, from the power of sleeping to the importance of good nutrition
  • Dieting
  • Fitness
  • Personal Empowerment & Self Growth
  • The Power of Humor
  • Lyme Disease Information (my newest interest, given my current, alarming, debilitating bout with Lyme disease myself. Please listen to yesterday’s absolutely fascinating Gab With the Gurus radio show about it; my 7 guests were eloquent, intriguing and smart.)
  • Sugar News & Education (of course)
  • Artificial Sweetener
  • Power of Positive Thinking
  • The Law of Attraction (for instance, I’ve had three authors from The Secret on my radio show — Lisa Nichols, Joe Vitale and Marci Shimoff, who’ve excelled in making things happen.)
  • Happiness
  • Spirituality
  • Meditation
  • Life Coaching & Its Transformative Powers (As you may recall, I’m now a life coach, thanks to the fabulous training from iPEC, as I discussed here and then here.)
  • Health Counseling & Its Amazing Effectiveness (I’m also a holistic health counselor, thanks to the amazing Insitute for Integrative Nutrition, fascinating training which I’ve discussed many times on this blog, including here.)
  • Stress Reduction (I’m about to post a guest article here on this blog, and I’ve also presented a stress-reducation program with much-lauded stress-reductioin expert Jill R. Baron, M.D.)
  • The Power of Play and Having Fun
  • Feeding Yourself From Within
  • Finding Sweetness (not the kind you get from sugar)
  • Self Love
  • Fiction (I even plan to talk about various fiction books from time to time)
  • The Joy of Sports (Remember the times I talked about the Tour de Bronx and the NYC Century Bike Tour?)
  • Creativity
  • Social Networking
  • Blogging
  • Info for Fellow Authors

Help me out, please. What should this blog be called? Ideas? Please send your contributions!

For that matter, the name of my e-zine is outdated, too. Stop Sugar Shock Minute also doesn’t work any longer. So I’m looking for a name which can be adapted to both my blog and e-zine.

So what do you get out of helping me rename it? If your name is picked, you get:

  • 2 free coaching sessions with me (to kick sugar, be more productive, whatever you need)
  • 1 signed copy of my book SUGAR SHOCK!
  • 1 copy of my next upcoming book (details come later)
  • My profound gratitude!
  • A chance to boast to friends and family members (LOL!)

What are you waiting for? Send your contributions now, please!

Thank you in advance from the bottom of my heart for your help!
