Television, the Year in Review

Julia Louis Dreyfus in Veep is a hit and a great example of a non-empowered woman in a position of power. Hillary and Condie she is not! As former senator and now vice-president Selina Meyer, Julia’s character is disregarded and skillfully brings disregard upon her self; catch the episode to hear her by say to her tall male colleagues, things such as “Can you please kneel down, I feel like I fell into a well.” Julia’s been nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award, Golden Globe Award, and others, so she is quite a hit with former fans of Seinfeld and The New Adventures of Old Christine.

The accolades to HBO are well deserved and Veep is great for laughs, but if you are feeling like Selina, break the “lack of confidence” habit of viewing. Try not to watch the all day marathon before the next season opener. Even the best habit breaking practices will need refreshed after ingesting an overdose dose of insecurity.

Will traditional TV be replaced?

In New York City, YouTube, Hulu, Netflix and Yahoo premiered their upcoming content. Will it be long before some of the biggest shows are made by online companies rather than TV networks?

Ipads, androids, and other new devices are shifting viewer behavior. You decide what you want to watch, not only anytime but also anywhere. But traditional TV is not being replaced, merely enhanced and expanded by additional technological opportunities to view TV programs on phones, computers and ipads. Don’t you still go to the movies rather than wait for the video? I rest my case. #TVRadioDoc

Real Conscious Eating

What is Real Conscious Eating?

Real Conscious Eating is an awareness of what you eat, how much you eat, what goes on in the body during eating that predicts how much you will eat, how you feel when you eat and what motivates you to eat. Awareness is followed by a process of change that results in making the best choices for you, mind, body and spirit. So what happens when you eat and why is it important to know? You see and smell food. The smell receptors n the mouth call up memories of past meals such as Sunday breakfast, a favorite lunch, dip and chips at a football game. The memories entice you and so you take a bite. As the food reaches the stomach, a spike in insulin occurs. Fats and nutrients send hormones to the brain (hypothalamus) where the brain decides when you are full. A number of biological processes occur during this time until you feel full, but there are tricks to get you to feeling that awareness of being full even sooner that I will share with you. What gets in the way of using the tricks you learn are early childhood food experiences, your Culture, Emotions, An urge for variety and Force of Habit As a result, you are likely to eat 92% of what is on your plate regardless of portion size. And changing your behavior is challenging because once the pleasure centers in the brain recognize certain foods as tasty and rewarding, then those centers continue to see those foods in a positive way, even once you decide to restrict them in your diet. Then habit sets in to work against your decision. But there are factors that you can adjust to master all of those challenges! Some of these secrets include:
