On\\ntonight\'s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy\\nlearn how to Never Be Fat Again and Never Be Sick Again from Raymond Francis, founder of Beyond Health. Raymond is an M.I.T.-trained scientist and an expert in\\nsupplement chemistry. He has been called\\n"one the few scientists to achieve a breakthrough understanding of health\\nand disease." And that endorsement wasn\'t given to him by his good friend actor, Rob Schneider. Forced to save his own life over two decades ago, Raymond\\nhas created a revolutionary model of health. His model addresses the causes of disease\\nrather than treating its symptoms. When you address the causes, problems\\ndisappear.\\xa0 He believes there is only ONE DISEASE\\nand only TWO CAUSES of disease. He wouldn\'t tell us what that was but he said his website could give us a lot of good information about it. \\n\\n

The health information on his website and in his books Never Be Sick Again and Never Be Fat Again as well as his newsletter Beyond Health News is designed to inform you of health choices that will empower you to choose\\nhealth, helping you to get well, stay well and never be sick again. During the interview he gave us great tips like eat fresh fruits and veggies, don\'t eat processed foods, use high quality supplementation and make sure you get enough calcium. He also mentioned that because the soil contains much less minerals and nutrients you have to eat a lot more vegetables and fruits to get the same level of nutrition as you would have 50 years ago. So he thinks supplements are the way to go. Please check out his website www.beyondhealth.com for more information.

\\n\\n\\nWe were so fortunate to have Danielle Tiano and Karen Child in the studio this evening. They flew all the way from California to meet with us. They are the creators of the Temptation of a Generation series of books. While this may seem off topic for us, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy are both parents who care deeply about protecting children from unnecessary harm and that\'s exactly what these brilliant ladies do.

The Temptation of a Generation series is the first\\nchildren\'s series to tackle the tough issues today\'s kids face in the\\ninformation age. The series addresses pre-teen and adolescent issues such as\\nself-image, technology addiction, relationships and more. With beautifully detailed\\nillustrations, the books create a visual experience and teach important life\\nlessons that will serve children well into adulthood.

\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n

Both Danielle and Karen have a passion to protect, educate and entertain children\\nand they believe that the best way to do that is through the parents.

\\n\\n\\n

Their books begin by encouraging young readers to think about\\nwhat effect technology has on their lives, specifically the activities and\\nrelationships they miss out on by focusing on the Internet and other\\nelectronics. The first in the series, Temptation of a Generation, explains the\\nstages of Internet addiction and how the pornographic industry targets children\\nas young as 8-years old.

\\n

\\nMany families do not know how to open the forbidden lines of communication\\nregarding sex and pornography, yet it needs to be addressed in every home\\u2026their\\nbooks are the tool to do so.\\xa0Some parents want to have \\u201cthe talk? but\\ndon\\u2019t know how; others are too busy or naive thinking that problems will never\\nfind their child.\\xa0After introducing the tough topic to your child, Danielle and Karen provide questions to facilitate a discussion and a\\nworksheet to help develop Internet boundaries for your home. This series of books is a must have for every parent of kids who are online. Please go to their websites and get more information and buy their books. www.temptationofageneration.com, www.beyondyourwords.com, www.karenchildmft.com and www.lifestarsocal.com. They have a newsletter and they are available to help you help your kids.

\\nWe also had on Minda Burr, author of The Art of Fun and The Power of Play Workbook. Minda shared her experiences helping people regain their sense of fun. She does exciting workshops on the Art of Fun and uses her background as a drama coach to get her clients to loosen up, let their hair down and wake up their inner child. Please check out her website www.mindaburr.com for more information about her book and to see if there is a workshop coming to your city. BTW she designs the most amazing jewelry, you can see some of it on her website as well.

Next we had on Michelle Bersell, author of the book Emotional Abundance: Become Empowered. This book has been called an owners manual to your emotions. Michelle is a psychotherapist and life coach who teaches us how to honor our authentic selves and\\nutilize our emotional process to reveal the direction that will support us to\\nlive our best life.\\n\\n

She believes that most of us have been going about our lives getting by\\nwith what we feel we can handle.\\xa0 Our lives do not feel balanced because\\nthey are so full.\\xa0 There is so much that we must be responsible for that\\nour days feel dictated by those demands.\\xa0 When we are living like this, she call it \\u201csurvival mode.? \\xa0

\\n\\n\\n

Survival mode is living our life based on what we need to do\\nto get by each day and fulfilling the demands placed on us.

\\n\\n\\n

Unfortunately, when we are in survival mode, we feel depleted and run down,\\nwhich means we are not truly living. this is where we are susceptible to being overweight.\\xa0 If you are struggling with your weight Michelle says "Don\'t be a victim to your weight" Instead of "shoulding" yourself with put downs try focusing on what is going to best serve you. Are you really willing to honor yourself? For more information please go to Michelle\'s website www.michellebersell.com. You can order her book, see when she is doing one of her retreats and sign up for her newsletter.
