 "This is where the grand design or blueprint of your life is held. The plan the liver makes for your life needs to be flexible yet strong, with a clear vision for your future that allows the creative spirit of the liver to be open to new ideas and experiences. The gallbladder is the "decision maker," the prudent judge, who watches over and coordinates the enacting of the plan made by the liver. The gallbladder needs to make good decisions with clarity that benefit all members of the house."- Pam Montgomery, Plant Spirit Healing: A Guide to Working with Plant Consciousness (Get the book.) |
 "It's suicide on the installment plan. Furthermore, these raw fooders didn't hit me over the head with missionary zeal. Perhaps that is why 1 can often be zealous to the point of being obnoxious. And that is also why I put so much science into this book, so that the diet would make sense to the left-brained people like me.
Take heed, those of you who want to put this off until you are older or sicker: / wish I had started sooner! And I have never met a raw fooder who has not expressed that same wish! I am told that people who start young maintain their youth well into middle age."- Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) |
 "Indeed, imeplan, the Mexican Institute for the Study of Medicinal Plants, and coplamar, the national coordinated plan for depressed regions and marginal groups, combined under the Mexican Social Security Institute (imss) for joint studies. Their publications provide valuable data for contemporary and comparative use of medicinal plants in each state of Mexico, including those of the American and Mexican West."- Margarita Artschwager Kay, Healing with Plants in the American and Mexican West (Get the book.) |
 "I have no grand plan for how this society might look, nor do I pretend that it would be some kind of Utopia. Life would go on, with all its trials and tribulations - and that, after all, is precisely the point. Unless we do constrain carbon, life will very largely not go on at all.
It seems to me that this low-carbon society would be one which remembers that our planet is a unique gift -perhaps the only one of its kind in the entire universe -which we are indescribably privileged to be born into."- Mark Lynas, Six Degrees: Our Future on a Hotter Planet (Get the book.) |
| "The gallbladder is the "decision maker," the prudent judge, who watches over and coordinates the enacting of the plan made by the liver. The gallbladder needs to make good decisions with clarity that benefit all members of the house.
When the wood element is out of balance a person may become extremely controlling, exhibiting rigidity and aggression. A lack of motivation due to stagnation may present itself. This dulling of the creative force can lead to abusive behavior toward both oneself and others." - Pam Montgomery, Plant Spirit Healing: A Guide to Working with Plant Consciousness (Get the book.) |
| "A second plan, used when more formal dining with private seating is desired, is to call ahead and make sure that a vegetable salad or fruit plate is offered. This assures that you will not end up where there is absolutely nothing on the menu to eat. Pack the avocado or nuts regardless.
Victoria BidWell claims that in all her years of bringing her own food to a restaurant, she has upset restaurateurs only a few times and was asked to put her own food aside." - Susan E.

"Young points out, "The American Medical Association, pharmaceutical companies and others wish us to plan our health care around this scientific error" (Sick and Tired? p. 25). Raw food experts and virtually all biologists and physiologists go a step beyond viewing germs as merely friendly or unfriendly. These experts claim that microorganisms do us a necessary service by helping us clean up our internal and external environments. If you saw a gathering of rodents and flies eating trash, you wouldn't likely blame them for creating the garbage site." - Susan E.

| "Her vision may not be a grand plan for her life, but it is rare for nothing to be revealed as nature is constantly attempting to show us how to live according to our own true natures.
On the day of Jasmine's vision journey, there was a cold drizzle falling from the sky. I hoped that it would clear so that she would not experience too much discomfort, but I have learned over the years that the weather on a vision journey day is exactly what is needed for those visioning. "It was so cold, miserable, and rainy I could not believe that I had to be out in it all day." - Pam Montgomery, Plant Spirit Healing: A Guide to Working with Plant Consciousness (Get the book.) |
| "If you plan to use them soon, you may keep them in tightly enclosed containers or sealed thick bags. It is better to keep them in the refrigerator or freezer if they will not be eaten within a month or so.
Keep a few cups of flaxseeds around for making crackers. Sunflower seeds should be kept handy, as they are often required in raw recipes and are also good for sprouting, trail mix and sprinkling on salads.
Brazil nuts should be around your kitchen at all times. They are rich in selenium, an essential mineral depleted in much of our soils." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) |
 "Chevron's environmentally sensitive executives knew beforehand they would have to do a lot to impress the Papuan government and immediately enlisted the aid of the World Wildlife Fund to guide them in preparing a comprehensive wildlife and ecological plan for the entire watershed. Chevron was going to take, but also give a whole lot more back and, in turn, deliver an oil field for many generations."- David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.) "Our good friends at the government Energy Star program have been involved with NRDC scientists and industry executives to develop standby power specs based on his work, and major manufacturers such as Sony and IBM plan to reduce standby power consumption in all products. Once again, government is seeding the market first with its vast purchasing powers, as federal agencies are now required to buy only these new power-stingy appliances. We're even making headway in Beijing." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.) "This plan includes reducing greenhouse-gas emissions and increasing energy efficiency; investing in research, development, and improved technologies; pursuing business opportunities in promising innovative energy technologies; and supporting flexible and economically sound policies that protect the environment.

 "In other words, they go on their own version of the plan! In some cases, they still manage to lose weight; in other cases, they don't. Because of this, I've devised a system that allows you to "cheat" and still lose weight. For any breakfast, snack, or lunch item on the menu, you can substitute a Flavor-Friendly Alternative. These items fit into any flavor theme. They're also quick and nearly effortless to prepare. Note: One of the flavor-friendly breakfast options is eggs, but you should limit your egg intake to six or fewer per week."- David L. Katz, Catherine S.

| "I didn't plan on going all natural but those were the components that actually worked." He now has a patent for household cleaning products. And a much better product, he adds, than Simple Green, which he claims could "appear to create an image of being a green product and a healthy product, but it contains propylene glycol, mono butyl ether (butyl cellosolve [like Windex]). A product like that you'd never get through certification in Canada."

 "To prepare a tincture with a shelf life of at least one year, plan on using a minimum of 40 percent alcohol and the balance distilled water, unless otherwise noted in the plant information in Part Three.

| "Plan weekly meals on Sundays
It makes sense to plan your meals. Don't wait until you are just getting home from work. Planning ahead will save time and relieve your stress. Every Sunday, plan the meals you will have for the week, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Figure out what ingredients you have and what you may need and then do your grocery shopping for the entire week. You could even do some of the cooking on Sunday and just use leftovers for meals during the week." - M.D. David Brownstein, The Guide to Healthy Eating (Get the book.) |
 "Liz was determined and, by sticking to her plan, she lost twenty-one pounds in the first three months and another ten pounds four months later.
Her numbers improved significantly: her cholesterol was down to 142 mg/dl, her triglycerides to 66 mg/dl, and her LDL to 86 mg/dl. These are all impressive changes for someone to achieve without resorting to drugs. Although Liz's HDL remained about the same at 43 mg/dl, the ratio between HDL and other blood fats improved significantly, another good sign. And that wasn't all. Her HbA)c dropped down to 5."- Jack Challem, Stop Prediabetes Now: The Ultimate plan to Lose Weight and Prevent Diabetes (Get the book.) "The more physical activity you engage in, the greater the benefits in terms of your blood-sugar and insulin levels. So plan to increase your walking time and distance over the coming weeks. You can also engage in other types of physical activity, such as cycling, swimming, using hand weights, or a mix of several types of activities to prevent boredom. Try to avoid talking on your cell phone while walking, though, because the distraction will slow down your pace." - Jack Challem, Stop Prediabetes Now: The Ultimate plan to Lose Weight and Prevent Diabetes (Get the book.) |

The San Joaquin River, its waters diverted to feed the fertile fields of California's productive Central Valley, also mostly fails to reach the sea down its old natural river bed. As an Associated Press reporter put it: 'Where spawning Chinook salmon once ran thick, lizards and tumbleweed inhabit a riverbed that often goes for years without water." - Mark Lynas, Six Degrees: Our Future on a Hotter Planet (Get the book.) |
| "Here are some steps to successful organic gardening at home (see page 208 for more organic gardening resources):
ž plan ahead—plan to grow some lettuce, at least a row of beans, and tomatoes; don't plant too many root crops the first year, since your soil will probably need building before you can raise those successfully. Include plants such as marigolds, zinnias, cosmos, fennel, dill, daisies, and nasturtiums that help resist pests.
ž Get seeds from mail-order catalogs (order them months ahead) or garden-supply stores, or buy plants that can be transplanted to your garden." - Michael F. Jacobson, Ph.D., Lisa Y. Lefferts and Anne Witte Garland, Safe Food: Eating Wisely In A Risky World (Get the book.) |

 "That seemed okay to me, and Pedro was happy for the plan.
Domingo's Catuaba
We passed a lovely evening and night in the small village, sleeping in hammocks strung to the rafters of an old wooden schoolhouse. The next morning, after coffee and more manioc flatbread, we left some money for the village and set off again further up river, to a place the chief had directed us. "There is an old man there, he is a very well-respected shaman. He can take you to find the plants you seek."
After about an hour of travel, we pulled up to another small sand beach and walked up a hill to a shack."- Chris Kilham, Hot Plants: Nature's Proven Sex Boosters for Men and Women (Get the book.) |

 "But as soon as I thought of that plan I knew it was nonsense. There wouldn't be any uncivilized reactionaries left; that wasn't consistent with tribal behavior. Having conferred and reached a decision to move to the mission, they would all stick together. I could walk all the way to El Encanto. But why? To watch the converts building new houses, planting new fields—and not remembering even a single puny plant that would guard against evil spirits?
There was a trail to Rio Caqueta. Teresa and her brothers had talked about it."- Nicole Maxwell, Witch-Doctor's Apprentice: Hunting for Medicinal Plants in the Amazon (Get the book.) |
| "Rolls's excellent book The Volumetrics Weight-Control Plan: Feel Full on Fewer Calories.
High-volume foods can certainly help you in your quest to fill up on fewer calories, but is volume more important than flavor? I don't think so. If I did, I wouldn't have written this book. By controlling the variety of flavors in your meals and snacks, you avoid stimulating multiple appetite meters at any one time (see "Flavor Fluency"). Then, by incorporating high-volume foods into your diet, you satisfy the meters that are turned on with fewer calories." - David L. Katz, Catherine S.

"Going out to eat is fine, but going off the plan is not, because if you do, you of course lose some of its benefits! Try to choose restaurants that: • Offer a variety of dishes made with whole grain products (such as pasta), fish, seafood, vegetables, and poultry. • Are willing to modify dishes to suit your preferences. • Indicate nutritious, low-calorie/low-fat, or heart-healthy choices on the menu. • Offer a variety of vegetable salads. • Tend to use low-fat sauces, such as vinaigrettes, wine sauces, citrus-juice sauces, and tomato sauces. • Provide adequate but not excessive portions." - David L.
