Full-body Kettlebell Exercises. Kettlebells are roundish, cast iron weights with handles.
The center of mass of a kettlebell sits outside your hand, unlike a dumbbell. This makes kettlebells great for full-body swinging exercises. As you swing the kettlebell in different movement patterns, several muscle groups work to control the swing. Start with a light kettlebell until you perfect the form. Nourish Your Soul. Happy Easter!

It’s not that I’m afraid to give Zachary the real names of things (he’s not really to the point yet where he will refuse to try things based on the name) but sometimes, it’s easier. Team JP Healthy Living: Recipes. I came across some beautiful, purple carrots at Harris Farm in Potts Point this morning...it was a bit of a detour on the way home from the market buying the cranberries for these cookies . In fact I had only dropped in to get some organic butter for the cookies but somehow (as usual) walked out with a bag full to the brim of fresh fruit and vegetables.
Wheat free! sugar free! Take-to-Christmas treats. A few months back I connected with Lee Holmes who told me she was writing a cookbook.
She asked if I’d “endorse it”. For some niggly, gut-based reason I had a very sound feeling about what she was doing…Lee has an autoimmune disease and has healed herself through diet. She sent me some recipes from her book…and I thought, This Is The Book We All Need. Cut to today. Supercharged Food – 90 recipes that don’t contain gluten, wheat, sugar, yeast or dairy – is out now. Paleo coconut flour muffins – sugarfree, of course. Coconut flour bread. CFSCC presents: EAT THIS!: Paleo Blueberry Coconut Muffins. Staying at home on stormy days makes me want to bake!

So I’m sharing one of my favourite recipes from my latest book I Quit Sugar: Simplicious: the Beet That Popstick Salad. Yep, a salad with popsicles. (Note, one of the Big Food companies – let’s call them Nestle – has the trademark to”popsicles” and sues everyone and their pet duck if they use it in a recipe title. Not kidding.) A great Christmas lunch stopper bound to impress family and friends. “Beet That” Popstick Salad from Simplicious, on the right I should also point out, I designed this salad to use the whole beetroot – leaves, root and the juice from the water that the beets are cooked in.

Food comparison. Alternative Sleep Cycles: You Don’t Really Need 6-8 Hours! Most people only think that there is one way to sleep: Go to sleep at night for 6-8 hours, wake up in the morning, stay awake for 16-18 hours and then repeat.
Actually, that is called a monophasic sleep cycle, which is only 1 of 5 major sleep cycles that have been used successfully throughout history. The other 4 are considered polyphasic sleep cycles due to the multiple number of naps they require each day. How is this possible? How is this healthy? Well the most important of every sleep cycle is the Stage 4 REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep, which has been shown to provide the benefits of sleep to the brain above all other stages of sleep. This way, you still get the benefits of 8 hours of sleep without wasting all of the time it takes to get to REM cycles, resulting in a much more efficient sleep cycle. Uberman Cycle: 20 to 30 minute naps every 4 hours, resulting in 6 naps each day.
