Lions don't need to spank
The following is from an article that was in this week's Newsweek.Decoding The Secret from Newsweek 3/5/2007, article by Jerry Adler.
(Excerpt) If you're a woman trying to lose weight, you had your choice of two pieces of advice last week. One, from the American Heart Association, was to eat more vegetables and exercise an hour a day. The other was from a woman named Rhonda Byrne, a former television producer who has written what could be the fastest-selling book of its kind in the history of publishing with 1.75 million copies projected to be in print by March 2, just over three months since it came out, plus 1.5 million DVDs sold. Byrne's recommendation was to avoid looking at fat people. Based on what she calls the "law of attraction"that thoughts, good or bad, "attract" more of whatever they're aboutshe writes: "If you see people who are overweight, do not observe them, but immediately switch your mind to the picture of you in your perfect body and feel it."
Scary - huh? kinda of makes one feel like an untouchable or a leper. Now that I think of it, maybe we should ring bells or something so that this woman and her minions can hear us coming and can better avoid us? Yeah, that's the ticket!
Oh by the way, if any of you are intersted, The Secret is a best selling book and DVD by Rhonda Byrne. It is available on Amazon and is very popular with Oprah.
