"Central park Reservoir. About a hundred or so residents participate in the exercise program, which is called "Run for Your Life," and those who become serious runners stay in treatment about twice as long as the nonactive residents. "It sounds obvious," Tavolacci says, "But the only thing that we know about treatment is the longer a person stays in, the more likely they are to succeed." Odyssey House has always used a holistic approach to treatment and emphasizes the importance of community." - John J. Ratey, MD, Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain (Get the book.) "In the spring of 2000, an employee named John Tavolacci started taking residents running in Central park, with the goal of training for a 5K charity run held each fall. "We run in groups with them and talk about what goes into running—the discipline, the structure, the teamwork," says Tavolacci, who is now Odyssey House's chief operating officer. "Addicts usually isolate themselves, but here they motivate one another, and they see what it means to set goals and accomplish them." - John J.

"Take the stairs instead of the elevator, park at the back of the lot, and go for a stroll around the block at lunchtime. There's a decades-old health initiative called ten thousand steps that encourages people to use a simple pedometer to calculate how much they walk every day, as a way to work exercise into their routine without having to think much about it. Based on the average stride of 2.5 feet, ten thousand steps is close to five miles. It's a clever way to begin to get in shape without even setting aside much extra time. And it works." - John J.

"The car park at the apartment block where I live has been patrolled by a private 'security' firm contracted by the management company to stop people parking in spaces designated for residents. I had nothing to do with this decision, but I was given a card to put on my windscreen to stop me being issued with a fine for parking in my own space. When one day the card had fallen from the screen a parking ticket was stuck to the car by this security firm demanding ?0 - well in access of $100 for, yes, parking in the designated space I had been using for some four years." - David Icke, Icke David, Infinite Love Is the Only Truth: Everything Else Is Illusion (Get the book.)

"As we trudged through the ancient coffee forest and climbed toward the site I expected to come upon KaldiLand, an amusement park full of rides and attractions, or at least Birthplace of Coffee National park, with rangers keeping the snotty-nosed little kids from pulling all the red berries off the venerated plants. All of the theme-parked history a kid raised on Disneyland and Six Flags, on Plymouth Plantation and donkey rides into the Grand Canyon, was sure to see. But all that awaited us at the top was, well, a clearing on a hillside." - Dean Cycon, Javatrekker: Dispatches From the World of Fair Trade Coffee (Get the book.)

"Henceforth, a fellow with a hybrid car would be able to park free, wherever he wanted. We will have to pass over the practical innards of the plan—how the owners of the parking spaces would be compensated, the paperwork, the enforcement, and so forth—and move at once to its theoretical pangs. Readers will quickly see that in order to improve the world in this manner, millions of private arrangements would first have to be ^improved. Someone must make up the lost parking revenue." - William Bonner, Lila Rajiva, Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets: Surviving the Public Spectacle in Finance and Politics (Agora Series) (Get the book.)

"Again on a certain day, as the Future Buddha was going to the park, he saw a diseased man whom the gods had fashioned; and having again made inquiry, he returned, agitated in heart, and ascended his palace. "And the king made the same inquiry and gave the same order as before; and again extending the guard, placed them for three quarters of a league around. "And again on a certain day, as the Future Buddha was going to the park, he saw a dead man whom the gods had fashioned; and having again made inquiry, he returned, agitated in heart, and ascended his palace." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.) "The moment he was ready, the proper heralds automatically appeared: "Now on a certain day the Future Buddha wished to go to the park, and told his charioteer to make ready the chariot. Accordingly the man brought out a sumptuous and elegant chariot, and, adorning it richly, he harnessed to it four state horses of the Sindhava breed, as white as the petals of the white lotus, and announced to the Future Buddha that everything was ready. And the Future Buddha mounted the chariot, which was like to a palace of the gods, and proceeded toward the park." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.)

"Maybe it's because I grew up in Takoma park, Maryland, which is one of the world headquarters of the Adventists, but I've always been very interested in the history of our church, which is really fascinating when it comes to health," he said. An amiable man of Chinese-American ancestry, Giang was both enthusiastic and easygoing as he sketched out the Adventist story. "I think most Adventists, especially if they grew up in the 1950s and 60s, think the church was formed simply because God spoke to Ellen G. White and she wrote down what He said," Giang told me.

"I met Kamada's great-granddaughter, 14-year-old Kur-ara, in a village park where she was taking part in a school track meet. She blew away the competition in the first leg of an 800-meter relay race. As she passed the baton to her teammate, she threw her arms victoriously into the air and then ran to the finish line to cheer on her teammates. Kurara was still breathing hard when I caught up with her. "Champions!" she shouted in her confident, deep voice, pointing to her teammates who smiled beside her." - Dan Buettner, The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest (Get the book.)

"Use stairs instead of an elevator; do heel raises while you wait in a line; park at the far end of parking lots; meet up with a friend or friends for talking and walking, instead of sitting and drinking frappuccinos. More focused workouts are good, too: cardiovascular exercise that gets your heart rate up and your body sweaty, plus twice weekly strength training, are good options. If you think you hate to exercise, you just haven't found the right kind of exercise yet. Try something new. The best exercise for you is the kind that you enjoy and look forward to." - Hyla Cass, Supplement Your Prescription: What Your Doctor Doesn't Know About Nutrition (Get the book.)

"And the Future Buddha mounted the chariot, which was like to a palace of the gods, and proceeded toward the park. " 'The time for the enlightenment of the prince Siddhartha draweth nigh,' thought the gods; 'we must show him a sign': and they changed one of their number into a decrepit old man, broken-toothed, gray-haired, crooked and bent of body, leaning on a staff, and trembling, and showed him to the Future Buddha, but so that only he and the charioteer saw him. "Then said the Future Buddha to the charioteer, 'Friend, pray, who is this man? Even his hair is not like that of other men." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.)

"One day, there was a race in Central park, a short little three mile race. I couldn't run that race as fast as a slow training session. I charted that. I said to myself maybe it was lack of sleep, maybe it was the flight, maybe it was all these things. The next week another race, same thing. I could not do it. I did not have the energy. I had a full blood chemistry done. I tested for every virus, bacteria, parasite, hepatitis, everything. My blood was clean as clean can be. I had to ask why I had no energy when I stressed myself in competition." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"But yesterday, I went to the gym, then worked around the house, then in the afternoon took the dogs for a walk to the park and to my amazement, when I got home and read my pedometer I had walked 10,105 steps...that is a first for me and it feels great!"—Danette S., 43-year-old, single parent of two sedentary they are. But don't worry: This is just your beginning. You're going to be inspired to boost that number. For many people, just the act of wearing the pedometer gets them to seize more opportunities to walk. You'll probably be one of them." - Wendy Bazilian, DRPH, MA, RD, Steven Pratt, MD, Kathy Matthews, Superfoods Rx Diet: Lose Weight with the Power of SuperNutrients (Get the book.)

"People need to know that in many respects a park—any park, anywhere—is an alien environment and, like any new environment, it has its own set of rules." Here are Morrow's tips for staying healthy in the parks. Pay attention. Gawking at gorgeous scenery produces car wrecks and falls—the two leading killers in national parks.

"In addition to the diagonal parking spaces against its side and back walls, the garage has a narrow central area in which cars can maneuver while heading in to park or backing out to escape. It's within this nondescript area, roughly sixty by twenty feet, that this mathematically gifted Indian, a latter-day Ramanujan, has worked out his amazing theories of triple parking in series. When a patient arrives, Mr. Patel stops the car at the foot of the ramp and confiscates the ignition key and a one-dollar advance payment. In his early attempts at garage parking, Mr." - Oscar London, From Voodoo to Viagra: The Magic of Medicine: 37 Uplifting Essays from a Doctor's Bag of Tricks (Get the book.)

"He gets lots of sun with daily trips to the park?at least two hours per day in the sunshine (of Southern California). What's the problem? A: At his age and living in the Southern California sun, it's unlikely that he's vitamin D-deficient. So his diet may be the problem. Most children eat too much grain and cheese, which produces acid loads that can adversely affect bone mass and behavior. Grains aren't good sources of magnesium, calcium, or potassium, and they're loaded with refined carbohydrates, which send the wrong signal to his metabolism." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.) "Then you can also find other ways to fit exercise into your daily 99 lifestyle: walking in malls, strolling with a friend, taking your pets to the park. I do a fifteen-minute block between six and six-thirty each morning. My commute is fifteen minutes, and I don't have to be at the office until seven forty-five, so this gives me ninety minutes to exercise, eat, and get ready for work. You may wonder: why bother with exercise if you're doing all the other important Vitamin D Cure steps? Here's why." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.)

"Two small studies from Pennsylvania State University in University park and UCLA found that AGE reduced total cholesterol by 7 percent and 3 percent, respectively, and reduced LDL cholesterol by 8 percent and 22 percent. Levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL, or "good") cholesterol increased only in the UCLA study, which also reported that AGE did three other beneficial things to lower the risk of heart disease: lowered homocysteine levels, stimulated circulation, and inhibited dangerous plaque formation in arteries." - Elaine Magee, Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well (Get the book.) "All these effects build on each other in combination therapy, according to Penny Kris-Etherton, PhD, RD, nutrition professor and researcher at Pennsylvania State University in University park.
