The best nutrition books

In The Stressless Brain, I detail the importance of building a relationship with yourself through the use of Kundalini Meditation. By incorporating yogic technology into your life, you can learn to govern your thoughts and emotions in a mindful manner. Meditation offers you the tools to view your life with clarity so that you can respond, rather than react, to stressful situations.

Bridging the worlds of yogic meditation, psychology, and science, The Stressless Brain will help you thoroughly understand stress and anxiety and how it affects your entire being: body, mind, and soul.  Whether you are experiencing mental hardships from your professional, personal, or romantic life, my objective is for you to find answers within yourself and make any necessary changes — all through the regular practice of meditation.

Ginny’s cancer diagnosis sent her on a quest to discover what caused her aggressive cancer. What she discovered will inform and challenge any reader who desires to improve their chances of preventing and surviving cancer. She challenges you to change what your doctor has no control over—your lifestyle and health habits. 

Ginny connects the dots between nutrition, medical research, the science of the body, integrative and conventional medicine, and Biblical wisdom. Her research reveals that our bodies were created by God with many self-healing mechanisms that work optimally when we do our part. By implementing her lifestyle changes, anyone can help build their immune system while lowering their toxic load. This enables our bodies to work as God intended and unleashes our God-given healing.

Modern life can be hectic. Filled with noise. Filled with things screaming for our attention. Filled with complexity. Filled with tasks that need to be done. Filled with stress. However, we can walk another path. Life can be calmer. It can be less noisy. It can be less stressful. A powerful tool we can all learn to wield in our lives is simplicity. We can simplify our lives. To do so, we must first go inside. We must simplify from the inside out, to achieve a meaningful return.

That’s what this book is about. What follows is a series of essays that prod at some big topics and challenges we all face. Where I can, I have shared some potential solutions that can support us living a simpler life. All are offered from the personal perspective of someone that believes in the power of simplicity. Someone that believes this journey to simpler, starts from the inside out.

A research-driven case for why optimism, kindness, and strong social networks will keep us living longer than any fitness tracker or superfood. 

We are fixating on all the wrong things—miracle diets, miracle foods, miracle supplements etc. We swallow vitamins. We obsess about BMI. While healthy nutrition and physical activity are important for health, there are things we all too often sacrifice that have an outsize impact on our centenarian potential. Friendships. Purpose in life. Empathy. Volunteering. Science shows that these 'soft' health drivers are often more powerful than diet and exercise.
