Is Your Life Too Plastic? Jeb Berrier Asks You in “Bag It”

/

Do you throw away plastic bags?
If so, you must join Monday’s Gab with the Gurus Show.
My guest is Jeb Berrier, star of a new documentary, “Bag It: Is Your Life Too Plastic.”
In the film, Jeb examines our cultural love affair with plastics.
“Bag It” — from filmmaker Susan Beraza — is one of six provocative, character-driven films that focus on food and environmental issues that is being presented by Whole Foods Market, the leading retailer of natural and organic foods, as part of its nationwide “Whole Foods Market Do Something Reel” Film Festival for Earth Month this month.
Jeb’s journey starts with questions like:
Are plastic bags really necessary? What are plastic bags made from? What happens to them after they’re discarded? What he learns quickly grows far beyond plastic bags.
Watch a trailer below.
Bag It Intro from Suzan Beraza on Vimeo.
In Bag It, you’ll be shocked at what Jeb discovered:
* The average American uses about 500 plastic bags each year, for an average of 12 minutes before they are discarded.
* About 2 million plastic bottles are consumed in the U.S. every

Think Big With Gregorian

/

As I’m now in the final phase of writing my book,Beyond Sugar Shock (for Hay House), I’m often being inspired, encouraged and motivated by the German band, Gregorian
As I listen to this group’s Gregorian chant-inspired versions of modern pop and rock songs, words, ideas and thoughts are coming at me — thank you, Universal Intelligence — so I can help people around the world break free of their sugar addiction and let loose of extra weight.
No matter what your religion, I believe these tunes can bring you to a higher, more positive place.
I urge you to join me in becoming a fan of this uplifting band, Gregorian.

Let Phantom of the Opera Move You

/

Phantom of the Opera 31MR8VN0B3L._SL500_AA300_ Lately, I’ve been sharing some Feel-Good Tunes here and here, but I completely forgot about The Phantom of the Opera, one of my favorite musicals.
I even own the stupendous Phantom CD set featuring Michael Crawford (what a voice!), Sarah Brightman (glorious!) and Steve Barton (awesome, too). In fact, I love this show so much that I’ve seen it two — or is it three — times on Broadway.
Thanks for Therese J. Borchard (author of The Pocket Therapist and Beyond Blue) for the suggestion to listen to “The Music of the Night” and other tunes from The Phantom of the Opera.
Borchard recommends listening to music as one of “7 Quick Ways to Calm Down” on the website, Beliefnet.com
Ah, just what I needed on a night when I’m feeling low on energy (oops, stayed up too late writing) and didn’t go to the gym, my favorite way to unwind after working on my book, Beyond Sugar Shock.
So I’m here alternately working, singing and boogying to The Phantom of the Opera. Thank you, Therese, for the suggestion!
I just can’t get enough of this!
“…Softly, defly, music shall surround you…
“Feel it, hear it, closing in around you…
“..Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar!…
“And you’ll live as you’ve never lived before…”
You can read the full lyrics here.
Speaking of music, listen to my Gab with the Gurus Radio Show today when I spoke with composer and inspirational speaker Paul Hoffman about how tunes can move you to action and success.

Beyond Sugar Shock, which has the subtitle, The 6-Week Plan to Break Free of Your Sugar Addiction & Get a Slimmer, Sexier, Sweeter Life, provides a step-by-step program to help you escape from Sugar Shock, as I shared previously here and also here.
This new book is designed to help you if you’re a sugar addict, overweight, obeseor plagued by headaches, headaches, depression, “brain fog, fatigue, low libido or severe PMS.Hay House images
Beyond Sugar Shock is coming to you, thanks to my new publisher, Hay House, which is the international leader in self-help and transformational publishing.
Let’s face it, kicking or even cutting back on sugar can be tough to do even though you know that kicking it can help you to lose weight, get more energy, boost your libido, prevent or reverse diabetes and live longer.
That’s why in Beyond Sugar Shock, you’ll get valuable tools and tips that will make letting go of your sugar addiction simple – and even fun.
This is where you come in. I’d like to know what you’d like to see included in this book.
In a hurry? Just click here to give your feedback.
So what will you get in Beyond Sugar Shock?
Basically, you’ll be given many tried-and-true tactics — ones I’ve created, starting in 1998, when I kicked sugar on doctor’s orders and ones I’ve developed as I’ve been coaching or connecting for the past 12 years with sugar addicts around the world. In addition, you’ll get tools from dozens of other health experts.
For instance, in this book:
* You’ll undertake simple, interactive adventurcises™ (my word for adventurous exercises) and playcises™ (playful exercises), which will drive you to important self-discoveries.
* You’ll get several dozen ways to stomp out your sugar cravings.
* You’ll discover your Sugar Color Code. (Yes, we’re all different in our relationship with sweets, and this knowledge will empower you to make the right choices for you.)
* You’ll detox gradually so that your body, mind and soul won’t go into shock as you move beyond your sugar obsessions and towards a better life.
* You’ll get healthy meal plans and tasty recipes from a nutritionist and exercise physiologist.

* And much more.
Now, here’s where I’d like your help.
