Happy 2012 NEWLIFERS,
Thank you for joining us for another year, actually for maybe the best year of your life.
Just hold on and ride the wave as 2012 takes you on an adventure of ascension. For
those of you that have been doing the work, eating well, juicing, eating super foods,
meditating, practicing yoga, spreading love and joy, forgiving and accepting, staying
positive and activating your DNA and light body, your life will be perfect as the rest of
the population will be in for a surprise economically, spiritually and financially.
I just came back from two weeks in Mexico and Guatemala visiting all of the Mayan
temples ruins and pyramids, experienced four Mayan Shaman’s ceremonies, sweat lodge,
fire ceremonies,entered the Stargate on 11.11.11, and visited the Mayan village in
Chichicastenango. I wanted to feel the energy of 11.11.11 and also understand the
Mayan prophecies of 2012. The Mayans were an extremely intelligent race, who no
doubt had help from terrestrials in understanding the ascension of mankind.
Join us on our cruise on October 6, 2012 as we visit the pyramids in Cozumel and
Belize and play in Isla Roatan and Grand Cayman. For more information, visit
www.newlifecruise.com.
I am very excited about my launching of GNLD, the world’s largest cellular nutrition
company, at the Meta Center on February 27. I have been taking these SuperFood
supplements for a year and a half and love how it makes me feel. GNLD is in 56
countries and this will be the first time in New York, It is a billion dollar A plus company
whose products can only be gotten by direct marketing. If you want to learn how you
can earn an income by coming in on the ground floor of this incredible company or just
want to learn more as Sirve will give a free lecture that evening on Cellular Nutrition

each other. When one is on, the other shuts
down, Kerr says.
“But meditators are using this default network in
unusual and novel ways,” Kerr explains. “People
who meditate don't get lost in mindless negative
chatter. Meditation protects you from repetitive negative thinking, which puts you at risk for depression.”
Meditation Improves
Concentration
People who meditate may be able to use their
brain in ways others can't to tune out distractions
and focus on the task at hand.
A new study shows that experienced meditators
may have less activity in parts of the brain associated with daydreaming and distraction while meditating and in their day-to-day lives.
Researchers say this brain network, known as
the “default mode network,” has also been linked
to anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
(ADHD), and Alzheimer's disease.
“The default mode is when you ruminate, think
about yourself, or daydream,” says study
researcher Judson Brewer, MD, PhD, Medical
Director of the Yale Therapeutic Neuroscience
Clinic. “Everybody has it, but experienced meditators have a different type.”
Brewer found that people who meditate are
able to link up other parts of their brains to monitor activity in the default mode network that tell
them to get back on task when distractions arise
and be present in the moment.
In the study, researchers used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to analyze brain
activity in 12 experienced meditators (more than
10 years of experience practicing mindfulness
meditation) and 12 novice meditators. The scans
were done as they practiced three different types
of mindfulness meditation as well as at rest.
The results showed that experienced meditators had less activity in the default mode network, regardless of the type of meditation they
practiced.
In addition, the scans showed that when the
default mode network was active, other brain
regions responsible for self-monitoring and
thought control were also activated in experienced, but not novice meditators.
“The finding sheds light not just on meditation's
effect on the brain but on some basic brain operations
that may have implications beyond meditation,” says
Catherine Kerr, PhD, Director of Translational Neuroscience at Brown University, who has studied the
effects of meditation on brain wave activity.
Kerr says the brain has two networks, the attentional network and the default network. The attentional network is usually focused on something
external, such as a manual task. The default network
is involved in internal chatter and daydreaming.
Usually these networks work exclusively of
Guidelines for Safe
Neti Pot Use
Stuffy sufferers who rely on neti pots for sinus
relief face a new threat, but can avoid risks with
some simple steps.
The news that two neti pot users in Louisiana
died from a brain-eating amoeba has prompted
an alert and a health warning from experts.
The pot, which resembles a small watering can
or teapot, is still highly recommended by doctors
for patients who suffer from sinus congestion.
It’s not the the neti pot itself that can be harmful, it’s the liquid that people use to irrigate
sinuses that can cause harm, said Dr. Satish
Govindaraj, assistant professor of otolaryngology
at Mount Sinai Hospital.
Govindaraj, who recommends the neti pot to
many patients, offers this advice:
• Keep it clean: Make sure you wash the pot
regularly with hot water and a little antibacterial
soap. Clean it every day.
• Don’t use tap water. Govindaraj recommends using distilled water or premixed packages of solution.
• Replace your pot. Get a new one every few
months. The hot water and washing can cause
the plastic to weaken over time.
No Copyright
for Yoga Poses
Downward-facing dog can no longer be
copyrighted. Regulators have decided that
yoga poses are “exercises” not “choreography”
and can’t be copyrighted like they used to be.
The ruling was sparked by a trademark lawsuit
by Bikram Yoga College of India against New
York’s Yoga to the People and Evolation Yoga.
The Indian school claims the New York studios appropriated his methods and exercises.
They counter that the sequences and poses
can’t be copyrighted.
Bikram Yoga lawyer Robert Gilchrest noted
that the Copyright Office has issued hundreds
of copyrights for exercise videos.
Regulators have announced that yoga poses,
such as head to knee touches and its sequence
of moves are not choreography. Instead, they
are exercises that cannot be copyrighted in the
United States. Previously, the United States
Copyright Office allowed yoga poses and their
sequences to be registered with their office,
even if the poses were in public domain.
Laura Lee Fischer, the acting chief of the
office’s Performing Arts Division, said that yoga
and other exercises “do not constitute the subject matter that Congress intended to protect as
choreography. We will not register such exercises (including yoga movements), whether
described as exercises or as selection and
ordering of movements.”
Yoga to the People, based in New York, had
a complaint filed against it by Bikram’s Yoga
College of India. Other businesses that were
sued include Evolation Yoga of Buffalo &
Brooklyn, New York and Yen Yoga of Traverse
City, Michigan.

Got Pain?
Get Bowen!
www.bewellnow.com
Bowen Therapy is renowned the world over for
its remarkable efficiency, it simply works to reduce
inflammation and pain as well as correct misalignment. It truly answers a question that patients and
their therapists are left asking sometimes of just
why chronic pain doesn’t simply get better?
My knee is much better – I’m frankly amazed at
how well Bowen works for the effort required to
administer the therapy–Bowen must rank as the
most energy efficient therapeutic modality in the
world. In past therapeutic sessions for this same
problem, I’ve been yanked, cranked, cracked
and poked without nearly the same results–very
impressive.” — Andrew Munawera, AGE 37
The effectiveness of any therapy in the treatment of pain, inflammation or misalignment
should be ‘black and white’. Most clients will
know very quickly whether Bowen Therapy is
going to be successful treatment for their problems regardless of how significant their present
diagnosis may seem. The majority of clients
seeking treatment come on average 3-5 times.
It’s fantastic!!! Since 1 1/2 years ago, I had
developed chronic pain in my left arm that’s
remained so excruciating I couldn’t think
straight and nor could I sleep. It was diagnosed
as arthritis. I’d been to chiropractor, physiotherpist and masseur. Nothing helped. After the first
Bowen Therapy visit it felt worse till the next
morning where I felt nothing at all and I’ve
been 100% since.” — M. Coulson, AGE 84
Developed in Australia by the late Tom
Bowen (1916-1982). Bowen Therapy, named
such after Mr. Bowen’s passing, is now being
taught in New York by the North American
Bowen Teaching College and by it’s president
and founder, Jonathan Damonte of Vancouver, Canada. For further information contact

Radiation from Cell Phone use is expected to

months and years ahead.
Cell phone use can lead to brain tumors.
There are studies leading to the conclusion
that radiation frequencies are causing such
symptoms as low sperm count, headaches
fatigue, irritability, memory loss and skin
irritations.
We believe in prevention now rather than
cure later (when it could be too late), and we
are bringing forth a unique shield to help
substantially lessen the harmful emissions —
the radiation — from regular ordinary CellPhone use and the Radio Waves the CellPhones emit.
Cell phones have become a necessity for

Kundalini Shakti
www.kundalinicare.com
Within the deepest core of our being radiates a Divine presence that is our own true
source. The fountain of our awareness and talent and drive, this sacred indweller is revered
in the Vedic tradition of India as
Kundalini Shakti, the living spiritual power within that illumines
each of us and guides us to
union with the One. Kundalini
Shakti is the grand potential
emanating from the heart of
every human soul. The Holy
Spirit, this divine inner presence
is each individual’s own personal spiritual guide and transformative helpmate.
The ancient spiritual science of
Kundalini Vidya explains that Kundalini Shakti can reside in either a
contained or a released and active
state. When active, it leads the
seeker through their inner maze of
accumulated karmic issues and
blocks to the sacred Source itself. Kundalini Vidya
maps the specific, varied patterns and phases of
spiritual development, revealing criteria for under-
Master Chen
standing spiritual advancement and stuck points. A
Kundalini rising, whether subtle or remarkable, is a
blessed responsibility that urges the individual's
spiritual development onward, but it
requires correct spiritual understanding, practice, and living to
comfortably advance the process.
“Stories of Spiritual Transformation,” the 2012 Maha Satsang
(great spiritual teaching) offered by
Patanjali Kundalini Yoga-Care,
presents twenty revealing, inspiring, and poignant personal narratives, each describing a particular
kind of Kundalini process, its
improvement, and subsequent spiritual advancement. Each exemplar’s story will be explained by
PKYC’s spiritual director, Swami
Chandrasekharanand Saraswati, to
show an overview of Kundalini
process and increase understanding of spiritual life.
Kundalini Vidya, The Sacred Science of Spiritual Transformation,
by Swamiji's disciple Joan Shivarpita Harrigan, Ph.D.,describes
the ancient teachings on which the
conference is based. PKYC offers
individualized spiritual guidance
to serious seekers through spiritual
assessments, personalized spiritual
practices, and small retreats, giving support to efficiently advance
their process to the experience of
oneness with the One.
“Stories of Spiritual Transformation,” April 10-15, 2012 in
Knoxville, TN, is offered by Patanjali
Kundalini Yoga-Care. www.kundalinicare.com. 865-531-2004.

Winter Soups
and Stock
• Colombian Lima Bean and Corn Stew
• Basic Vegetable Stock
A warm and soothing bowl of soup can be full
of good-for-you ingredients — just what you need
to keep the winter blues away and lift your spirits.
Most soups are easy to make and successfully take
additional ingredients. Sample the soup as it is
cooking and let your tastes inspire you, using any
recipe as a base or just toss what’s in the refrigerator and cabinet in and voila! .
There are soups made with beans, leafy greens,
grains and vegetables and, in a variety of textures
such as creamy, chunky, and chewy, giving you
various ways to prepare the very foods that are filling and nutritious for you.
A good base to start with for any soup is by
using a stock. Making a stock may sound complicated and time consuming, but the procedure
really only takes a couple of minutes and very little effort. It stores well in either the refrigerator or
freezer. Once it's made you have a quick way of
increasing the vitamins and minerals in any dish
you're cooking.
When making a stock from vegetables or their
trimmings it’s preferable to use organic vegetables
because their skins are sweeter and they've been
spared chemical sprays and waxing. Stay away
from cabbage, cauliflower, and other cruciferous
vegetables since they have a strong sulphuric
taste which will overpower the broth and can
make it bitter.
Rich tasting vegetarian stocks with depth of flavor are made by adding lentils, miso, or herbal sea
salt. (Remember to reduce the salt in a recipe
when using miso or herbal salt.) For fish stock,
add a light meat fish or just its bones, head, and
tail (and cider vinegar which draws out calcium
into the broth) to the pot. Fish stock is best used
for recipes that include fish only.
Cook a vegetable stock about 15-20 minutes
and a fish stock 20 minutes. Strain it and toss the
contents just keeping the wonderful broth. To concentrate the flavors, and reduce the quantity, simmer uncovered until desired volume or taste has
been achieved. You can also take a tip from chefs
and add a flavor spark — a squeeze of lemon, a
splash of vinegar or a few chopped tomatoes at
the time of final flavoring.
Stock can be frozen for many months. When
you need some broth, just slip some into a pot and
cover with a lid. Heated on a low flame, it melts
quickly. Keep several kinds in your freezer. Also
before freezing pour your favorite stocks into ice
cube trays. Once frozen pop the cubes into a
plastic bags and mark its contents. When you
14 NEWLIFE
JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2012
need a little flavor boost, toss some into your
cooking pot. It doesn’t take long before your caldron is ready and your meal.
Easy to use and store beans for your soups are
red and green lentils. They take very little time
to cook and need no presoaking. Once added
to any soup they will add richness to flavor and
thickness to the texture as well as adding protein
and fiber to your meal. Red lentils turn yellow
ocher when cooked and basically completely
dissolve after about 20 minutes. They thicken
the broth and add a little consistency. Green
lentils which are really brown when you buy
them, take about 40 minutes to soften and can
cook along root vegetables which can handle a
longer cooking time.
For cream soups, more often I use potatoes or
oatmeal to give a rich and creamy texture.
Sometimes at the end a little organic cream or
butter is added to peak the richness. A basic
cream soup can be made with or without the use
of stock. Essentially toss any vegetable such as
carrots, butternut squash, zucchini, etc. with 1-2
potatoes and cover with water. Bring to boil and
simmer until the vegetables are soft. If you prefer add 1/4 of oatmeal instead of the potatoes,
which will take about 20 minutes to cook. Puree
and season. That’s it!
Chunky soups are usually made with hearty
root vegetables such as rutabaga, carrots, cabbages, beans, onions, parsnips, and anything you
can find that you like to eat. They are a great
way to use up leftovers. Pour water or stock over
your previously made dish; add some fresh garlic and onion, perhaps some ramen or other
favorite noodle. Bring to a boil and reduce heat
simmering until tender, season and serve. How
can you go wrong!!
Chewy soups. To me these are stewy types that
are thick and hearty stick-to your-ribs meals.
They have less water and are robust and filling —
sort of a chili consistency, which could even be
called a soup. Beans and grains are usually a
part of these soups. Add leftover brown rice or
start with some barley and make a nourishing
and filling meal.
Soups are a fine meal for any time of the year.
Here are some recipes to inspire your creative
juices and you’ll see how quickly a meal can be
made become ready to eat!

sausages, meat, and chicken, and adapted from
Chef Gabriel Vasquez’s original vegetarian version. Saffron is known as a blood revitalizer
and aids in assimilation. This hearty and
scrumptious stew is a stick-to-your-ribs type of
meal — all in one pot! Serve with a salad or
sliced cucumber.
PREP: 1 cup large lima beans, sorted, washed
and soaked 6-8 hours or overnight.
2 - 2 1/2 cups soaked lima beans (1 cup dry)
8 cups filtered water
4 cloves garlic, peeled
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 onions, large diced
2 carrots, diced
1 green plantain, peeled and sliced (see note)
1 yucca or 2 taro, peeled and sliced
2 potatoes, peeled and diced
3 ears of corn, shucked and cut in rounds
1 large pinch saffron
2 teaspoons sea salt
1/2 teaspoon herbal sea salt
1/2 bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped
1/2 bunch scallions, coarsely chopped
1. Lift lima beans from soaking water into a
large-size casserole pot and add 6 cups fresh
water. Bring to a boil with whole garlic, and bay
leaves, and simmer 30-40 minutes.
2. In a large sauté pan, heat olive oil and add
onions, carrots, plantain, yucca, and potatoes,
stirring after each addition.
3. Add onion mixture to lima beans and with
corn and saffron. Add remaining 1 cup of water to
sauté pan heating and stirring until the bottom of
the pan is clean and the flavors from the onions
and other vegetables have colored the water. Add
to the casserole, bring to a boil, covered. Lower
heat, and simmer until the beans are soft, about
30 minutes.
4. Add salt, cook another 5 minutes. This is a
chock-full and soupy stew. Serve in roomy bowls
garnished with several tablespoons of cilantro
and scallions.
NOTE: Green plantains are a larger size relative
of the common banana and unripe. In their green
state, they have a high carbohydrate content, and
are cooked as a starchy vegetable would be. To
peel, cut off the ends and score it down the side
lengthwise. Pry open the skin and remove the
plantain. For a sweeter flavor they can be used
ripened with equal success.
Yucca is a type of starchy tuber that can be substituted with taro, battata, jerusalem artichoke or
any other tuber. Always peel them.
VARIATIONS: Add celery, yams or butternut
squash, and fresh fava beans or peas instead of
lima beans.
BASIC VEGETABLE STOCK
YIELD: ABOUT 4-QUARTS STOCK
Seasonings such as tomatoes and vinegar add a
flavor spark and draw out minerals from the peelings.

Using stock in recipes is an simple and delicious way
to incorporate micro-nutrients in your meals.
6-8 cups of vegetables and/or vegetable
peelings (SEE NOTE)
4-5 quarts filtered water
1 bay leaf
1-2 teaspoons cider vinegar
To these ingredients, add any or all of the following flavor enhancers;
3-4 sprigs parsley
3 or 4 black or white pepper corns
3-6 coriander seeds
2 chopped tomatoes
1 onion, quartered (peeling is not necessary)
1 carrot, quartered
1/2 orange or lemon peel, organic preferred
1/4 cup green lentils, sorted and washed
1. Put the peelings in a large stock pot with the
water, bay leaf, and vinegar. Add any of the desired
flavor enhancers and make sure the water covers the
ingredients by 1 inch. Cover and bring to a boil.
2. Reduce flame and simmer until the vegeta-
lima beans
bles are soft, about 40 minutes or if using peelings
20 minutes.
3. Place a colander in a large bowl, and carefully strain the stock. Discard the vegetables,
and spices.
4. Use the stock right away or set it aside to
cool. Once cooled, pour the stock into storage
containers. Indicate the type of stock and date on
each container, and refrigerate or freeze them.
Stock will last for 7-10 days refrigerated or for up
to 6 months frozen.
NOTES:
F OR V EGETABLE S TOCK : Any combination of
vegetables including onions, garlic, leeks,
carrots, parsnips, parsley root, celery stalks
with leaves, celeriac (celery root), or butternut, acorn or buttercup squash, cut into large
pieces. Also, vegetable peelings are terrific
to use such as onion and garlic skins, corn
cobs, winter squash seeds, and all types of
potato skins. The stock will be sweeter tasting if the peelings are from organic vegetables. Do not include cruciferous vegetables
when making stock, such as cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts,
since they are strong tasting and can be
over powering.
FOR FISH STOCK: Only use white meat fish. The
bones, tail, fins, and head of fish such as cod,
scrod, red snapper, catfish, flounder or sole.

FIND OUT
WHAT’S IN THE CARDS
FOR YOU IN 2012
By Alexander Dunlop
M
ost people don’t know, but the ordinary deck of playing cards is
not ordinary. It’s a book of wisdom that dates back past where
we know. There are records of these cards in ancient Egypt, but
no-one knows where they have come from. The tarot cards are derived
from these cards in the Middle Ages in Europe.
Each year of our lives, we are “dealt” cards to play. And knowing
what cards we have been dealt is such a powerful realization that we
use this idiom commonly in our language. We say things like, “it’s not
in the cards for me.” And, other expressions like, “we all have to play
the hand we’ve been dealt.”
Once you know what your cards are for 2012, you have an amazing advantage. You have clarity. You have direction. You have clear
meaning. That’s why this expression of finding out what’s in the cards
for us is such a part of our vocabulary. But, even more important than
finding out what’s in the cards for us, is learning how to play our cards
right, another expression we commonly use.
And, all these expressions about playing our cards make it clear that
these cards have been used
for this true purpose to play
the game of life through out
the centuries. Their meaning
remained hidden to protect people from accusations of witchcraft by the Roman Church.
But, the power of these cards is
so strong that their meaning has
crept into our every day vocabulary.
You will never look at these
cards the same way again. And
you will have a whole new
appreciation for expressions
like, “he’s got that in spades,” or
“what’s the deal anyway?” or
“don’t get lost in the shuffle” or
“we’re going to do that to the 9s” or “put your cards on the table.”
A BOOK OF WISDOM
The ordinary deck of playing cards is the original book of wisdom.
The cards represent 52 archetypes or symbols of consciousness (plus
the Joker). These patterns are played out in this lifetime in our dimensions of reality. The number 52, you may realize, is the number of
weeks in a year. Adding 5 + 2 = 7. So, as in all numerology, the number 52 reduces to the number 7. And, there are 7 days / week.
If you add all the values of the cards together — the Kings are
worth 13, Queens 12, and Jacks 11 — then you get the 4 suits multiplied by (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13) = 364. All of the
cards of all 4 suits add up to 364. There are 365 1/4 days each year.
The Joker is the anomaly that makes up the remainder. He can impersonate any other card at any time. The Joker is worth 1 1/4 or ‘himself plus 1 each of all 4 suits.’
The ordinary deck of playing cards is not so ordinary. It repre-
sents a tool kit to understand each and every day of the year as well
as a tool kit to understand every pattern of consciousness that plays
out on this plane of existence.
ARE YOU ON THE RIGHT PATH IN 2012?
If you want to know whether or not you are on the right path in
2012, then look no further. It’s in the cards for you to find out.
Each day of the year is mathematically connected to a card. And if
we are born on that day, then that card becomes our birth card by
mathematical formula. There is no guess work. And this birth card
reveals surprising and extraordinary truths about how you are and what
you have come here to accomplish in this life-time.
From this birth card, we can then calculate the 13 total cards we have
in our life path. Similarly to astrology, each of our cards indicates aspects
of our personality: where we can expect to find our greatest blessings, our
shadow side, our love life, and our karmic challenges. We each have 13
cards to play for life. And that’s why we have the expression that we “have
to play the hand we are dealt.” It’s
a literal expression that we have
taken as a mere figurative gesture.
But the expression is so common
that we use it whenever we mean
to say that we have to make the
best with what we’ve got.
But every year of our lives is
also read in the cards. And this
is where it gets really fun. Each
time the deck is reshuffled and
re-dealt, according to mathematical precision (not randomly), then a new deal reveals the
patterns for that year. And then
we know clearly what we are
meant to do for the current year.
It is also immensely helpful to
look to the cards for our relationships, as the patterns and connection
between us can be read in the cards. We can discern what kind of
energy patterns will exist between two people, and if the relationship
is a good match, based on how the cards are positioned relative to
each other in the life spread and then each yearly spread.
These ‘ordinary’ cards will astonish and amaze you with their accuracy. It’s no accident that a whole field of entertainment for magic has
grown around these cards or that an entire city, Las Vegas, was built on
the power of these cards. The cards have a mystical potency that seems
truly magical.
In fact, there is so much to be revealed in the cards, it’s no wonder
that whenever we want clarity about anything in our lives, we may say:
“just put the cards on the table.” The cards clarify our life experiences.
They reveal extraordinary truths for those courageous enough to find
out what’s in the cards for them.

CELLULAR NUTRITION PRODUCTS
GNLD
, the pioneers of Cellular Nutrition in
the 1950’s, backed by the research of Stanford scientists, now in 56 countries, has become the
largest cellular nutrition company in the world.
Now you can be part of this exciting company as
NEWLIFE is bringing them to NY for the first time.
I have been using these products for over a year
now and truly believe they are the best nutritional
products around. They are not available in the
Health food stores or Drug Stores and can only be
gotten online or through a distributor. For only $49
per year you can even buy them wholesale.
People always ask me why I look so young and
have so much energy. I tell them that I do yoga and
meditate, practice the 11 Tibetan Rites, and eliminate meat and chicken from my diet, eat Superfoods and take GNLD Superfood supplements
GNLD (Golden Neo Life Diamite) offers a better
way of life to customers and distributors around
the world. The company was established in 1958 by
B y
M a r k
Jerry Brassfield, who from a young age suffered
from serious allergy and asthma problems. Finding
relief from his ailments with the addition of nutrients to his diet, Jerry decided to go into business
sharing nutritional products with others. From
there GNLD was born. It is a direct marketing
health & wellness company which has grown to a
billion dollar international empire having an extensive product range of super food health supplements being used by Olympic athletes, weight loss
shakes, innovative anti-aging skin products as well
as environmentally friendly home care products. In
fact, all GNLD products are environmentally
friendly and backed by the company’s extensive,
well-qualified Stanford scientific advisory board.
Over 50 years ago Jerry didn’t start out to build
the world's leading nutritional company. He set
out to build a community of people who care
about living well. Living well means more than
enjoying good health. It means taking control of

your health, taking charge of your personal development, and securing your financial future. GNLD
is one of the few direct marketing companies that
received an A+ and an Accredited Business stamp
by the Better Business Bureau.
Imagine being paid to have the best products
available for your health delivered to your house.
The GNLD opportunity is designed to allow
anyone, regardless of previous experience or training, to own his or her own business. Even more
important, with a GNLD business, the sky is the
limit. You can build your business as big as your
individual ambition, talent, and energy permit.
GNLD’s longevity and consistent growth for more
than four decades is proof that the company is
built on sound business practices
GNLD’S PRODUCT
PHILOSOPHY –
BASED IN NATURE,
BACKED BY SCIENCE
Below are three of my favorite GNLD products:
Omega -111 Salmon Oil Plus
O
ne of GNLD’s most popular products is
Omega-III Salmon Oil Plus. It is the world’s
finest ultra high potency fish oil, complete with
standardized amounts of all eight omega-3s, with
guaranteed purity. Today the latest scientific
research not only continues to validate the important roles of EPA and DHA in human health, but it
Page 20
has also shown that there is a whole family of
omega-3 fatty acids, a total of eight in all, which
contribute to optimal human nutrition. This critically important chain of dietary omega-3 fatty
acids starts with ALA (alpha linolenic acid) and
ends with DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), taking six
important steps along the way. Each is now known
to have its own unique biochemistry and supporting “synergistic” role in human omega-3 nutrition.
POTENT FULL SPECTRUM: Each 3 capsule
serving of the exclusive UHPO3 (Ultra High
Potency Omega-3) formula provides 1,070 mg of
total omega-3 fatty acids, including 460 mg of
EPA, 480 mg of DHA, 50 mg of DPA and 80 mg
of other omega-3 fatty acids.
NATURAL: Salmon Oil Plus is based on pure,
natural salmon oil, providing all the benefits and
whole food goodness of one of nature’s richest
sources of omega-3 fatty acids. Only GNLD eliminates the smell and taste molecules from their formula leaving you with 100% Omegas.
Carotenoid Complex
V
irtually all modern recommendations for healthy
eating include increasing our intake of fruits and
vegetables. In addition to helping control weight and
providing healthful fiber, fruits and vegetables are
valuable sources of a wide variety of phytonutrients.
Numerous studies link carotenoids — yellow,
orange, red, and green pigments in fruits and vegetables — to reduced risks for cancer and heart disease,
enhanced immunity, and tissue protection. Fruits and
vegetables are the best sources of carotenoids, but

The leader in health supportive, mostly vegetarian
cooking and theory, The Natural Gourmet Institute
offers a range of programs for a career in the natural
foods industry or simply enriching your lifestyle:
• Outstanding Job Placement
• Student Loan Available
• Recreational Classes
most people do not eat the 5-9 daily servings recommended for optimal health. GNLD’s research has
pointed to the carotenoids that are found in red,
orange, yellow, and deep green fruits and vegetables.
Daily Carotenoid Complex is an all-natural, lipidsoluble antioxidant supplement derived from tomatoes, carrots, spinach, red bell peppers, strawberries,
apricots, and peaches. GNLD's revolutionary
Carotenoid Complex delivers a broad and balanced
spectrum of these important carotenoids. Carotenoid
Complex is the only whole-food carotenoid supplement with clinical proof from USDA researchers that
it can boost your immune system.
Assuring that a product is bioavailable, meaning
that after it is ingested, it actually is utilized by the
body, is an important step in the development of any
nutritional product. Daily Carotenoid Complex has
been rigorously tested and proven to be highly
bioavailable by numerous independent researchers,
including several from the U.S. government! In fact,
we know of no other nutritional supplement that
can provide as much HUMAN bioavailability data
as Daily Carotenoid Complex, Many researchers
have chosen GNLD's Daily Carotenoid Complex for
their studies because it is a broad-spectrum, wholefood carotenoid supplement that provides a consistent, standardized form of carotenoids that they can
base their studies, and reputations on! Such scientific scrutiny assures you that the ingredients in Daily
Carotenoid Complex are in fact reaching your body
to do their work. After twenty days the immune system is stronger by 37%.
Tre' Nutrient Drink
T
re’ is a potent and unique combination of the
purest extracts of Pomegranate, Acai berry, and
Green Tea, along with a proprietary Inflox berry
blend, enhanced with resveratrol and alpha-lipoic
acid. Tre' is sweetened naturally with the nectar from
the Agave cactus. With standardized amounts of
active ingredients such as punicalagins in Pomegranate and polyphenols in Green Tea, you are assured a
powerful measure of the most potent bioactive
essence in each serving. Tre‘ is not just juice. It is a
unique combination of nature’s most health-enhancing ingredients, blended with powerful, anti-aging
antioxidants to bring you a pure essence of nature,
based on a foundation of science. From the first sip,
you will experience the refreshing taste and the
invigorating potency of the ingredients. Tre is a revitalizing essence with a low glycemic response.
These products are in 56 countries and I know
it is time for New Yorkers to discover them. If you
want to get healthier or wealthier or both, come
join my super team that I am creating. You will be
on the ground floor of something so exciting you

a Year of Challenge
A
B y Yo g i S r i D h a r m a M i t t r a
ll suffering and pain experienced on the material plane is for the purpose of purification —
the gradual cleansing of the mind, heart and intellect so that one day, in this incarnation or
one of the next, we may at last have a complete vision of Supreme Reality.
All yoga teachers and students, prepare yourselves! The year ahead will be a year of challenge. It will be a year that will provide many opportunities to really be of service to others. It will also provide us with the chance to discover how strong and faithful we truly are.
To fully arm yourself, spend more time in contemplation and realize who you really are
today! We are all a portion of the Almighty One; immortal, omniscient and formless. It is only
by this knowledge that you will truly remain unaffected by the possible external state of turmoil. Stay healthy and share as much as possible spiritual knowledge with others so that their
pain can be reduced. Acting in this way is the highest type of charity. Remember, belief is not
enough! How unwise it is to sleep! (To float through life unaware of anything and without
learning anything.) How foolish it is to remain unguarded and full of doubts! The wise man
is always awake and fully prepared. He follows the rules and guards his knowledge.
Compassionate to all, he lives happily and is immune to delusion. The wise man is ever ready
to face any amount of pain that may be inflicted upon him at any time.
But even the holy man’s body and mind are still subject to extremes of discomfort, since
no one is immune to the forces of nature. Due to the present condition of everything,
including the mental and spiritual, everything is moving, acting and changing perfectly.
Everything is controlled by the Divine Laws of Nature, and everything is connected to
everything else. Whatever happens to anything in any distinct area has an effect on everything else to some degree. Einstein saw this through the lens of Physics: “For every action,
there is an equal and opposite reaction.” In Karmic terms, perhaps this is better expressed
as: “For every action, there is an equal required action.” Or, “Everything we are passing
through at present is a result of our deeds from the past.” If we were able to look back at
every action taken in previous lifetimes, we would come to understand with clarity everything we are now experiencing from moment to moment.
BE A LIGHT
O
nly a lit candle can light the unlit wick of another. Some who lose everything will feel that
the world really has ended. If you have a little bit of knowledge and a little bit of self-control, you will be able to serve and help anyone and everyone you come into contact with both
now and after everything begins to possibly shift and change. May Brahman bestow upon you
the treasure of understanding this Divine knowledge! Om Shanti, Shanti, Shantihi.

24 NEWLIFE
JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2012
I have practiced nutritional, preventive routine dentistry for over 30 years. My main goal is to save my
patients’ teeth for the rest of their lives in a relaxed
atmosphere.
There have always been alternative, non-toxic dental
materials instead of those containing mercury, nickel
and aluminum. The safe protocol for necessary dental
mercury removal is strictly followed.
To prevent the development of loose teeth or
orthodontic relapses, I treat noxious oral habits like
tooth clenching, tongue-thrustng or night grinding of
teeth, which may cause headaches (TM Joint
Syndrome). All local and systemic causes of dental diseases are investigated carefully and non-surgical, nondrug treatments are planned.

DR. JOSEPH SHAPIRO
20/20 Sight is not perfect. Eyeglasses and sightimprovement techniques (i.e., Bates) are not always the
answer. Vision is a total body process. A sophisticated
visual analysis requires 21 different tests to determine
your unique visual pattern.
Most eye exams lead only to a prescription for glasses which reinforces visual weakness and may not
uncover more fundamental visual problems, which may
result in the following symptoms: eyestrain, fatigue, discomfort with your glasses or contact lenses, oversensitivity to light, short attention span, inability to concentrate, general nervousness and tension, headaches,
blurry or double vision, poor reading skills, and academic underachievement, coordination difficulties, the
need to rub your eyes, and permanent squint or frown.
I will analyze your vision and prescribe special lenses and/or daily eye exercise to rid you of your symptoms
and make your everyday life more comfortable. In addi-
tion, I am the only optometrist in Manhattan who practices Photoretinology, i.e., the branch of ocular science
that uses varying light frequency therapy.
Due to Dr. Shapiro’s perspective and pioneering efforts
in the field of vision therapy, he is well-received in both
holistic and traditional medical circles. He practiced in one
of the first holistic centers in New York City, Served as a
staff member of the Chiefs of Ophthalmology of
Manhattan Eye and Ear and Lenox Hill Hospitals, and
served as astaff member and clinical supervisor at the
New York Light House Low Vision Service. He has done
grand rounds, workshops and lectures at 6 major metropolitan hospitals on the subject of functional vision testing
and therapy. Call for information.

FULLY ALIVE!
We come to this world open, vulnerable, and fully
alive. Our mind, body, and spirit are integrated. Trauma,
difficult experiences and societal expectations take a
heavy toll, which cause us to create defenses- necessary
at that time, but no longer serving any purpose.
Core Energetics is an evolutionary process that uses
physical techniques, energy work and verbal interaction
to help open up the blocks in the body, release
repressed emotions, challenge old beliefs, and allow for
the energy to flow freely and without inhibition. When
integration occurs and we feel safe enough to open our
hearts, our outlook on life changes.
Anette Kischinowsky is a Certified Core Energetics
Practitioner, and a CTA Certified Coach with extensive
training and experience in the performing arts. She
creates a safe environment to address issues such as
depression, anxiety, abuse, anger, grief, loss, family &
relationship issues, stress and feelings of inadequacy.
She supports clients to meet life’s difficulties and
consciously create joyful, fulfilling lives.

Feeling overwhelmed?
Having trouble with work? With relationships? With loss?
Or perhaps you simply feel unable to get what you need.
When you are in a struggle with yourself, it can blur everything else. Your life may seem painful, lonely and scary.
Don't be alone with your problems.
Talking with an insightful, spiritually-attuned psychotherapist can help. Together we can explore, understand, and work with what has been troubling you.
Gaining perspective this way can give you a stronger
sense of yourself personally, and out in the world. And it
can help you discover your own unique evolutionary path.
I am a holistic psychotherapist who has been
practicing for over 20 years. My institute training left me
well versed in many therapeutic modalities. I have also
studied the Tao, Buddhism and various forms of
healing. But most important is that I am an experienced
listener who is attuned to both psychodynamics
and spirituality.
Successful psychotherapy begins with a trusting
relationship. The initial consultation is free. Please feel
