And yet, as with most aspects of our food culture, we’ve wandered far away from one of the most basic and essential ingredients to all of cooking. The convenience of processed and packaged broth in a box has ousted homemade broths to the detriment of our health and taste buds.Now, in The Bare Bones Broth Cookbook, small-batch broth company founders Katherine and Ryan Harvey take the guesswork out of making authentic bone broth at home, providing foolproof recipes for meat, fish, poultry, and vegetable broths—as well as more than 75 inventive ideas for incorporating broth into a wide variety of dishes. From on-the-go beverages like their Coconut and Lime Sipping Broth or Carrot and Orange Smoothie to seasonally inspired soups to hearty mains like Tomatillo-Cilantro Pulled Pork and Fig-Braised Chicken with Spiced Walnuts—the Harveys explain how easy it is to enhance the taste and nutritional value of any meal while also helping you save money and reduce waste. And through it all, they offer insightful kitchen pointers, ingredient tutorials, and an overview of the myriad and astonishing health benefits of this modern day elixir. Just as real, slow-cooked bone broth is essential to delicious, nourishing food, The Bare Bones Broth Cookbook is essential to any cookbook collection.Advance Praise for The Bare Bones Broth Cookbook“Once considered a professional chef’s secret ingredient, bone broth is now finding its way into kitchens everywhere—to the benefit of our taste buds and our overall health.

Barefoot Running: How to Run Light and Free by Getting in Touch with the Earth

by Michael Sandler Jessica Lee

How could something we have for free--our bare feet--be better for running than $150 shoes? The truth is that running in shoes is high-impact, unstable, and inflexible. Shoes promote a heel-centric ground strike, which weakens your feet, knees, and hips, and leads to common running injuries. In contrast, barefoot running is low-impact, forefoot-centric, stable, and beneficial to your body. It encourages proper form and strengthens your feet in miraculous ways. When you run in shoes, you not only risk developing poor form, but you also hinder the natural relationship with the ground that running facilitates. Barefoot running restores the delightful sensory and spiritual connections to the earth that you were meant to experience. Barefoot Running offers the only step-by-step direction runners need at any age to overcome injuries, run faster than ever, and rediscover the pure joy of running. Once you tear off your shoes and learn to dance with nature, you'll tread lightly and freely, hearing only the earth's symphony and feeling only the dirt beneath your feet. Hit the ground running with revolutionary techniques for starting out slowly, choosing minimalist footwear, navigating rough weather and rugged terrain, and building your feet into living shoes.From the Trade Paperback edition.

The Basic Code of the Universe: The Science of the Invisible in Physics, Medicine, and Spirituality

by Ervin Laszlo Massimo Citro

Explains the universal information code connecting every person, plant, animal, and mineral and its applications in science, health care, and cosmic unity • Examines research on consciousness, quantum physics, animal and plant intelligence, emotional fields, Kirlian photography, and the effects of thoughts, emotions, and music on water • Reveals the connections between the work of Ervin Laszlo on the Akashic field, Rupert Sheldrake on morphogenetic fields, Richard Gerber on vibrational medicine, and Masaru Emoto on the memory of water DNA dictates the physical features of an organism. But what dictates how something grows--from the division of cells in a human being to the fractal patterns of a crystal? Massimo Citro reveals that behind the complex world of Nature lies a basic code, a universal information field--also known as the Akashic field, which records all that was, is, and will be--that directs not only physical development and behavior but also energetic communication and interactions among all living and non-living things. The author examines research on consciousness, quantum physics, animal and plant intelligence, the power of intention, emotional fields, Kirlian photography, and the effects of thoughts, emotions, and music on water. Linking the work of Ervin Laszlo on the Akashic field, Rupert Sheldrake on morphogenetic fields, Richard Gerber on vibrational medicine, and Masaru Emoto on the memory of water, Citro shows how the universal information field connects every person, plant, animal, and mineral--a concept long known by shamans and expounded by perennial wisdom. Putting this science of the invisible to practical use, he explains his revolutionary system of vibrational medicine, known as TFF, which uses the information field to obtain the benefits of natural substances and medications in their “pure” informational form, offering side-effect-free remedies for health and well-being.
