Book excerpt: We all inherit a legacy that includes the love and the pain, the prayers and the prejudices of countless generations before us. We grow out of soil that has been at one time or another soaked in blood and tilled by slave labor, as well as tended by loving hands. The work to build on the blessings and gifts of our ancestral history, while challenging and transforming the bigotry, fear, and disconnection that we also inherit, is at once collective and deeply personal. One of my dearest friends is Coumba Toure of Senegal. She is the West African director of Ashoka and founded a printing press for children's books. At a key moment in a gathering of young leaders, I heard her say something that strikes me as deeply true: All violence begins with disconnection. At the moment we disconnect ourselves from one another, it's all gradients of violence--from not listening to people fully to speaking ill of them to spitting on them to torturing them to killing them. So the process of reconnection is among the most vital acts of healing that any of us can undertake. In these painful and beautiful times, there may be nothing more important than the journey from isolation to connection. For as we find the power of our diverse communities, and as we come to know ourselves more deeply in relationship to our unique gifts and needs, we not only become more whole but also take steps toward giving our essential gifts in this world. We begin to learn how we can unleash all that we have, and all that we are, on behalf of all that we love. -Ocean Robbins, from The Power of Partnership: Building Healing Bridges Across Historic Divides The Fetzer Institute's project on Deepening the American Dream began in 1999 to explore the relationship between the inner life of spirit and the outer life of service. Through commissioned essays and in dialogue with such writers as Huston Smith, Jacob Needleman, Gerald May, Charles Gibbs, Robert Inchausti, Carolyn Brown, Elaine Pagels, and others, the project is beginning to sow the seeds of a national conversation. With the publication of these essays, the thinking and writing coming from these gatherings is being offered in a series of publications sponsored by The Fetzer Institute in partnership with Jossey-Bass. In an effort to surface the psychological and spiritual roots at the heart of the critical issues that face the world today, we are extending this inquiry by creating a parallel series focused on Exploring a Global Dream. The essays and individual volumes and anthologies published in both series will explore and describe the many ways, as individuals and communities and nations, that we can illuminate and inhabit the essential qualities of the global citizen who seeks to live with the authenticity and grace demanded by our times.

Download or read book The Real Food Revolution written by Tim Ryan, Congressman and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today a buck gets you a quick burger (or two), but what’s the real cost of that meal? The rates of chronic disease—specifically diseases like diabetes, caused by our lifestyles—have grown exponentially in recent years, edging medical expenses ever higher while threatening to give America its first generation to actually live shorter lives than their parents. Unfortunately finding good nutrition is no walk in the park, with more and more Americans living in cities, far from a farmer’s field. To overcome distance and undercut price, we rely on industry to put dinner on the table— yet this system has valued efficiency and short-term profits over our own health and the health of our environment. So how do we keep America thriving? Congressman Tim Ryan may have a soft spot for chicken wings and ice cream, but he also knows the joy of farm-fresh produce and the feel of soil between his fingers. Here he presents easy, actionable steps that anyone can take, from starting an herb garden on your windowsill to helping implement food education in your child’s school to petitioning your elected officials. Ryan also introduces some of the current food revolutionaries, who are shining examples of people who saw a problem with how we think about food today, rolled up their sleeves, and raised a crop of positive change. The commonsense ideas in these pages come big (replacing dilapidated neighborhoods with farms) and small (sitting down for a fresh, healthy meal with your family), and each will help you improve the quality of life for you and future generations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our reliance on industrial agriculture has resulted in a food supply riddled with hidden environmental, economic and health care costs and beset by rising food prices.

The author draws on his political and business experience to show that we have all the necessary ingredients to ensure that local, fresh sustainable food is affordable and widely available. He describes how cities are bringing food production home by: Growing community through neighborhood gardening, cooking and composting programs Rebuilding local food processing, storage and distribution systems Investing in farmers markets and community supported agriculture Reducing obesity through local fresh food initiatives in schools, colleges and universities. Ending inner-city food deserts Producing food locally makes people healthier, alleviates poverty, creates jobs, and makes cities safer and more beautiful. The Urban Food Revolution is an essential resource for anyone who has lost confidence in the global industrial food system and wants practical advice on how to join the local food revolution.

Download or read book Inside the California Food Revolution written by Joyce Goldstein and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2013-09-06 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this authoritative and immensely readable insider’s account, celebrated cookbook author and former chef Joyce Goldstein traces the development of California cuisine from its formative years in the 1970s to 2000, when farm-to-table, foraging, and fusion cooking had become part of the national vocabulary. Interviews with almost two hundred chefs, purveyors, artisans, winemakers, and food writers bring to life an approach to cooking grounded in passion, bold innovation, and a dedication to "flavor first." Goldstein explains how the counterculture movement in the West gave rise to a restaurant culture characterized by open kitchens, women in leadership positions, and a surprising number of chefs and artisanal food producers who lacked formal training. The new cuisine challenged the conventional kitchen hierarchy and French dominance in fine dining, leading to a more egalitarian and informal food scene. In weaving Goldstein’s views on California food culture with profiles of those who played a part in its development—from Alice Waters to Bill Niman to Wolfgang Puck—Inside the California Food Revolution demonstrates that, while fresh produce and locally sourced ingredients are iconic in California, what transforms these elements into a unique cuisine is a distinctly Western culture of openness, creativity, and collaboration. Engagingly written and full of captivating anecdotes, this book shows how the inspirations that emerged in California went on to transform the experience of eating throughout the United States and the world.

Book excerpt: Literally on my way to dying from Type 2 Diabetes, I had been searching nearly 2 years for a natural cure. When I got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, my Primary Care Physician recommended multiple diabetes medications, insulin, and a keto type diet. He stated that diabetes is a progressive disease, worse than cancer, and he reinforced that there is no cure for it. Unable to take any of the medications, my diabetes wasn't getting much better despite rigorous exercising and even intermittent fasting. My doctor fired me for being "non-compliant." Then I discovered the power of the whole food plant-based diet. After adopting this lifestyle, I reversed my Type 2 diabetes, hypertension and lost over 70 pounds. The health benefits of plant-based eating are proven by research-backed data by many physicians, notably Dr. Neal Barnard, Founder and President of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular diseases are the #1 cause of death annually, taking an estimated 17.9 million lives each year. There are over 422 million people around the world with type 2 diabetes which leads to serious health issues like heart disease, kidney failure, dialysis, blindness, limb amputations, death. The global obesity epidemic shows more than 1 billion overweight adults, at least 300 million of them obese. Obesity is a major risk factor for chronic diseases including diabetes, heart disease, HTN, stroke, and certain cancers. The health benefits of plant-based eating can prevent, treat, and often reverse these deadly diseases. I share my personal journey, tell you how you can take charge of your health with this lifestyle, and encourage all physicians to learn about plant-based eating so they can offer it to their patients as the primary avenue to prevent, treat, and even cure their diseases. Special chapter on how to boost your immune system against COVID-19. Together, we can win the war on global diseases!

The Official Bright Line Eating Cookbook is designed to help readers transition to this transformative way of life as smoothly and solidly as possible. The first book gave explicit instructions as to what the guidelines for each meal are, but no specific suggestions as to what to actually cook. This book provides recipes, as well as tons of tips, tricks, and tools culled directly from the Bright Line Eating community, the "Bright Lifers" themselves! Because Bright Line Eating is unlike any food program out there, this cookbook will be unlike any seen before. It's broken down by warm bowls, cold bowls, and plates. There will be a large section on salad dressings--because Bright Lifers live and die by their dressing! Note: there will not be any "cheat" foods, because those foods keep addiction alive in the brain, slow weight loss, and leave you vulnerable to old habits. Special features: • 75+ delicious recipes • Guidance for getting started and staying the course • Tips and tricks for getting the most from the plan • Jaw-dropping before-and-after stories and photos from successful Bright Lifers • and more! This will be an invaluable companion to the first book, and, for some, an entry into Bright Line Eating and an entirely new way of eating.
