Hacer dieta como un gurú
by Dr Rosie KuhnCierto, los gurús no hacen dieta. Ellos no usan sustancias que cubran o adormezcan sus sufrimientos emocionales ni temores. Se fortalecen al observar sus emociones, pensamientos y sensaciones corporales de manera más profunda. Con sus mentes, descubren viejos esquemas de pensamientos y creencias que ya no tienen sentido, salvo dentro de la desconocida bóveda de las heridas. Nosotros no somos diferentes a cualquier otro gurú que yo conozca. Tienes las mismas habilidades para elegir según tus propias creencias y valores. Y todos los gurús empezaron igual que tú – dudosos, temerosos y renuentes al cambio. Ellos, como tú, decidieron que había algo más importante que adormecer, evitar, y distraer sus mentes de sus reales esencias y de las vidas que les fueron entregadas. Ellos, como tú, caminaron un paso a la vez, poniendo atención en lo que los llevó a tomar caminos de fracaso tantas veces. Vas a encontrar, al igual que esos gurús, que todos los momentos revelan tu más profunda valentía, convicción, fuerza y amor; ellos solo tuvieron que verlo y no huir de eso. Yo, como tú, como todos los gurús que conozco, puedo, y podré, elegir inevitablemente el amor. Sólo falta saber el “cuándo”.

Halal and Kosher Food: Integration of Quality and Safety for Global Market Trends
by Abdel Moneim Elhadi Sulieman Osman Ahmed OsmanIn both Islamic and non-Islamic countries many population groups worldwide, such as vegetarians and people of the Jewish faith, consumers do not eat pork. Amongst these groups consumers are concerned about importing processed food which may contain or has been contaminated with pork or swine-derived products. This is especially true of halal foods in Muslim communities where the foods may be prepared or processed utilizing one of more non-halal ingredients. Halal and kosher foodstuff play an incredibly important role in the Muslim and Jewish diet, economy and health. This makes halal and kosher food product quality, safety and shelf life preservation a major topic in these communities and for the manufacturers of halal and kosher food products. Halal and Kosher Food: Integration of Quality and Safety for Global Market Trends covers a wide range of important topics in halal foods including quality, standards, safety of food additives, antimicrobial and veterinary drug residues, aflatoxin in feedstuff, application of Hazards Analysis and critical Control Points (HACCP). Important data regarding halal and kosher food similarities and differences are covered in full. Best practices in halal food product manufacturing are covered, plus the importance of halal food safety for consumer health. Written by elite international halal food experts, this work differs from other books on the subject which focus on history, legislation and certification. Readers can utilize this book as an orientation and practical guidebook to recognize the quality and safety of halal food products.
