"In comparative studies, pro players were exposed to three different training regimens: practice on the court shooting baskets, practice accompanied by watching a video of successful shots, and watching video of successful shots alone. The athletes who only watched the video improved their shooting percentages the most because the other two training methods (which quite naturally involved some missed shots) introduced an element of failure to the subconscious mind. So, the subconscious mind will accept what you say, even if you're feeling a little doubt or fear." - Rick Levy and Lou Aronica, Miraculous Health: How to Heal Your Body by Unleashing the Hidden Power of Your Mind (Get the book.)

"Buy or Rent an Exercise video (Then Use It!) One great thing about living in a city is that there's always at least one video rental place, and virtually all of them carry exercise videos. There's a million of them, for every possible taste and style, from Dancing to the Oldies to the latest, hippest body-shaping video by the Firm. You'll find everything from hard-core boot-camp stuff to the gentlest stretching. Try them on for size. If you're a beginner, just do one for a few minutes and watch yourself progress until you can do the whole thing." - Jonny Bowden, M.A., C.N.S., Living the Low Carb Life: Controlled Carbohydrate Eating for Long-Term Weight Loss (Get the book.)

"Exercise Videos and DVDs Have you ever watched a home exercise video or DVD and experienced long-term results? How long did that last before you got tired of watching the same person teach the same class to the same music? It is the same reason people have a tough time sticking to a diet. People like variety. In order for an exercise video/DVD to work long-term, you need to have a small library of various classes and instructors available to keep your workouts fresh." - Craig Pepin-Donat, The Big Fat Health and Fitness Lie (Get the book.)

"If you have really enjoyed the yoga in this book, you may want to check out a local yoga or Pilates class or buy a video to continue learning and exploring. I think Rodney Yee's and Patricia Waldon's video series are both excellent. Go to www.spentmd .com for more exercises and restorative yoga. Beyond Diet, Supplements, and Exercise, What Should I Do? Continue finding ways to help yourself chill out. Take breathing breaks during work. Remember, your breath is one of the key rhythms in your body." - Frank Lipman, Mollie Doyle, Spent: Revive: Stop Feeling Spent and Feel Great Again (Get the book.)

"There has also been a proliferation of electronic gambling devices, including slot machines, video poker, video keno, and other stand-alone devices. In some states these may even be found at truck stops, convenience stores, and lottery outlets. The ubiquity and convenience of gambling opportunities, and the strength of the marketing campaign undertaken to promote gambling, are unprecedented in history." - Brian Fagan, Floods, Famines, and Emperors: El Nino and the Fate of Civilizations (Get the book.)

"If possible, try a video before buying it—many libraries and video stores carry exercise videos. Look for a tape geared to your fitness level. Most exercise videos are rated "beginner," "intermediate," and "advanced." When you outgrow one, pass it on to a friend. Check the length of the workout, which may range from twenty to ninety minutes. Workouts are carefully choreographed routines, and you'll want to complete the whole workout from warm-up to cool-down. So choose appropriately. See the Resource Section beginning on page 255 for information on purchasing workout videos." - Dr. Julian Whitaker, The Memory Solution (Get the book.)

"You really need visuals—photos or a video or an actual trainer—to fully understand and customize the simple techniques you will incorporate in your strength-training program. But it's easy to find resources to help you get started. There are excellent sources of information online and in video and book format in your library and at your local bookstore. Three good online resources include: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Web site offers a detailed strength-training program developed by experts from Tufts University and the CDC.

"Further, as is done in the nursing home in Oslo where Arne Naess lives, nursing homes of the future can use video cameras and GPS devices to track patients and monitor them if they get lost or fall. Personalized digital devices can hold individualized music, photo, and video files that can be used to stimulate or calm an individual with memory problems as the need arises. Integrating technology into our care for the elderly is an increasingly feasible endeavor." - Peter J. Whitehouse and Daniel George, The Myth of Alzheimer's: What You Aren't Being Told About Today's Most Dreaded Diagnosis (Get the book.)

"There are many new avenues for international distribution of movies and television shows, notably cable television, home video, and videodisc. With each new "window" of distribution, some time elapses. A hit movie might show up on cable television six months after its theatrical release, and then on videotape and videodisc a year later. But non-hit movies can have a more erratic distribution time frame—B-movies like horror movies or kung-fu flicks might not even hit theaters, let alone home video, until many years after they are shot." - David Feldman, Imponderables The Solution to the Mysteries of Everyday Life (Get the book.)

"Many children are falling victim to "video-gamer's thumb," aka "Nintendo thumb"—a type of RSI caused by playing with PlayStations or other video games. can be a clue to vitamin Bn deficiency or even the more serious pernicious anemia, a severe form of anemia (low red blood cell count) caused by the body's inability to absorb vitamin B|2. Interestingly, too much vitamin B6 can cause paresthesia, as can abnormally high levels of calcium, potassium, sodium, and lead. Excessive tobacco and alcohol use can produce numbness and/or tingliness, too." - Joan Liebmann-Smith, Ph.

"On it, I played a continuous loop of video of her I'd taken a couple of years earlier. In the video, she was telling jokes, laughing uproariously, and waving her hands around to illustrate her points. I thought that the video was essential in order to balance the fact of her death with the magic of her life, and, as well as the tragic story of a lifeless corpse, present the vital spirit of a life fully lived. The doctor of the future may not say, in hushed tones, "I lost a patient." - Dawson Church, The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention (Get the book.)

"But his voice sounded very different in this video. He spoke to Paul in a sad monotone, as if he expected no reply, the way one might speak to a person in a coma. After that, there weren't many more videos. Summer came and went, as Lynne embarked on a pilgrimage to the medical world. But no doctor offered a diagnosis or proposed a treatment." - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)

"I saw a video the other day showing the neurons stretching out, looking for connections. Our brains are just hungry for connections, hungry to communicate, hungry to reach out and make new neuronal connections so that we can maintain our intelligence. At his institute in Tucson, Arizona, Dr. Khalsa offers the Brain Longevity program, which consists of four pillars: 1. Nutritional modification, including a 15 to 20 percent fat diet. Adding breast of chicken, fish, and nonanimal protein products such as tofu is helpful. Certain fish are especially good for the brain." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"If taking classes is cost-prohibitive, consider searching for a video or audiotape on yoga for older audiences. Dementia releases the essential self; we wander hack-ward uncontrollably and become more of what we already were. But what I wonder is whether there is any way to train ourselves before we start to wander, so that when we lose our minds we are at peace. Yogis sit in caves for years. The rest of us have to earn a living. Serenity could be a forward-looking skill, though, if only we had time to acquire it. ?Dr." - Peter J. Whitehouse and Daniel George, The Myth of Alzheimer's: What You Aren't Being Told About Today's Most Dreaded Diagnosis (Get the book.) "Personalized digital devices can hold individualized music, photo, and video files that can be used to stimulate or calm an individual with memory problems as the need arises. Integrating technology into our care for the elderly is an increasingly feasible endeavor. As a new generation of elderly boomers develop memory problems, they will already be more familiar with computers, and will appreciate the potential to enhance cognitive function and network with others." - Peter J. Whitehouse and Daniel George, The Myth of Alzheimer's: What You Aren't Being Told About Today's Most Dreaded Diagnosis (Get the book.)

"The problem with this interpretation is that in many of the experiments, the viewers had been able to see a site as a moving video, as if they had been there on the scene. This meant that this phenomenon operated beyond a conventional ELF frequency. Furthermore, using the special double-walled, copper-screened room, which would block even low-frequency radio waves, didn't tarnish anyone's ability to pick up the scene or degrade any of the descriptions, even those of events thousands of miles away." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.)

"Each inhabitant was fitted to an array of medical gadgetry to measure brain waves, heartbeat, breathing rate, skin conductance, and peripheral blood flow. A video camera stood discreetly in the corner. The room was curtained in earth tones and furnished with soft table lighting and an artificial, floor-to-ceiling weeping fig tree. When the room was occupied, ambient music flooded the space." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"Many of the remote viewers had been able to change their perspective, particularly when gently urged to do so by their monitor, so they could move around heights and angles at will, or zoom in for a close up, like a video camera on a crane. With Pat's first remote viewing of the secret Pentagon site, he'd begun his viewing from 1500 feet up to take the scene in as a whole and then zoomed in for closer detail. The worst thing a remote viewer could do was to interpret or analyze what he saw." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.) "Although ordinary participants had expected electrical readings related to breathing or heartbeat, the healers were generating electrical surges higher than 60 volts during healing sessions, as measured by electrometers placed on the healers themselves and on all four walls. video recordings of the healers showed these voltage surges had nothing to do with physical movement.2' Studies of the nature of the healing energy of Chinese Qigong masters have provided evidence of the presence of photon emission and electromagnetic fields during healing sessions." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.)

"Visualization" implies that you observe yourself in the situation, as if watching a mental video featuring yourself or seeing yourself through another pair of eyes. Although this may be useful in other areas of life, visualizing oneself from an external perspective in a sports event can hamper athletic performance. Mental rehearsal also differs from positive thinking; happy thoughts on their own do not work in competitive sports.10 The most successful internal rehearsal involves imagining the sports event from the athlete's perspective as though he or she is actually competing." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"In a heartbreaking home video shot in mid-February 1996 that was projected in the courtroom, Michelle is seen sitting in a toy caboose, flapping her arms. She ignores the entreaties of her mother and grandfather. A year later, she was diagnosed with autism. Aposhian, who has more than 100 publications on heavy metal poisoning to his name, is hard of hearing and was obstreperous at times during his cross-examination on Monday. For example, he insisted that in vitro studies were nearly always reproducible in animals, and that animal studies were nearly always reliable models for human effects." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"In those studies, two people are isolated from each other in separate rooms and a video camera is trained on the receiver, who is also hooked up to skin conductance equipment, not unlike a polygraph machine—the type used in lie detection studies to detect an increase in "fight-or-flight," unconscious autonomic nervous system activity. At random intervals, the "sender" is instructed to stare at the subject on the monitor, while the "receiver" is told to relax and try to think of anything other than the prospect of being stared at." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"In the video, she was telling jokes, laughing uproariously, and waving her hands around to illustrate her points. I thought that the video was essential in order to balance the fact of her death with the magic of her life, and, as well as the tragic story of a lifeless corpse, present the vital spirit of a life fully lived. The doctor of the future may not say, in hushed tones, "I lost a patient." The patient's ego and body might have died, and a medical ego that sees death as the enemy might indeed see a reflection of its own death in the death of another." - Dawson Church, The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention (Get the book.)

"The other sat in another, darkened room, attached to an electrogastrogram, viewing live video images of the first person. Images periodically flashed on another monitor, accompanied by music designed to arouse particular emotions: positive, negative, angry, calming, or just neutral. The results revealed another example of entrainment—this time in the gut. The EGG readings of the receiver were significantly higher and correlated with those of the sender when the sender experienced strong emotions, positive or negative." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"Lynne Avram handed the video camera to her husband, and he started shooting the playful interactions between Lynne and the baby-chubby little Paul, with his bright eyes beaming-focusing almost entirely on his son, instead of his wife, as new fathers are prone to do. To him, and to Lynne, too, the baby-and every ordinary thing the baby did-was absolutely unprecedented. It was as if no child had ever before taken so majestic a first step, or burped so remarkably. Dad narrated as he filmed. " - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)

"And it might be hard for children to maintain their enthusiasm for real life when they can get lost in the fantasy worlds—often violent ones?of video games and television shows. Refocusing your child's energy involves making sure that the energy is there and available. As we've discussed already, great nutrition makes a huge difference, and in this chapter I'd like to take a hard look at the issue of sleep. As I've mentioned earlier, I'm amazed at the number of people who just don't know why they're tired. I try not to be abrupt with them when I tell them that they just need more sleep." - Jay Gordon, The ADD and ADHD Cure: The Natural Way to Treat Hyperactivity and Refocus Your Child (Get the book.)
