Text of the page (random words):
t of what we eat these days is food like products and not actually food in the natural sense there are chapters about emotions gluten sugar and brain scans there are also 21 recipes included at the back of the book to give you a kick start in returning to a more natural way of eating my favorite takeaway from the book was that while the common wisdom states that it takes 21 days to form a habit this is only part of the habit formation process it actually takes 63 days to form a habit the first 21 days is where you start carving new neural pathways in your brain and the following 42 days are needed to cement the new habit overall i really enjoyed this book it requires a medium amount of brain power but is well worth the read this book has been provided courtesy of baker publishing group and graf martin communications inc book review health review 12 jun 2016 review unparalleled by jared c wilson posted in review words by jenn unparalleled how christianity s uniqueness makes it compelling by jared c wilson jared s book is a light look at apologetics making the case for why the christian life or life with jesus is completely unparalleled compared to other religions he even touches on the differences between christianity judaism and islam while the book is well written and includes enough personal experience stories to keep it interesting i really didn t feel that this book was for me it would be better suited to those who have questions about faith or those who are curious what the differences are between some of the world s major religions i received a complimentary copy of this book for review from baker books book review christian life review 12 jun 2016 review good or god by john bevere posted in review words by jenn good or god why good without god isn t enough by john bevere john bevere doesn t mince words in good or god he shares the hard truth that what we consider to be good is often vastly different from what god would say is good john touches on topics such as god s best for us the devil s strategies focus the lordship of jesus obedience desires our defaults holiness and so much more some of john s theology i disagree with eg it seems he believes you can still end up in hell due to your actions even if you ve already accepted god s gift of salvation however overall this book had a lot of excellent points and very important reminders i definitely recommend it book review books christian review 30 apr 2016 review the daniel plan by rick warren posted in review words by jenn the daniel plan 40 days to a healthier life by rick warren including insights from dr daniel amen dr mehmet oz and dr mark hyman faith food fitness focus and friends are the plan of this book i loved the majority of what was written here except for the recommendation to cut out all sugar otherwise the book talks about how to eat according to your hunger signals of which i m a big fan and about how to put god first in your journey towards health it then goes on to talk about how to incorporate fitness renew your focus and find support for your new healthy lifestyle there are several recipes included in the back of the book but you can also get the daniel plan cookbook if you want more i enjoyed this book book review faith healthy lifestyle review 2 comments 30 apr 2016 review jesus feminist by sarah bessey posted in review words by jenn jesus feminist an invitation to revisit the bible s view of women by sarah bessey sarah writes in a very down to earth way she even starts out the book by setting the scene a bonfire on the beach under the stars here she wants to discuss what it means to be a jesus feminist when people hear the term feminist they automatically think man bashing and going braless and that sort of thing but that isn t what sarah means for her a jesus feminist is simply one who considers men and women to be equals even in god s eyes sarah writes about how it is actually biblical to view men and women as equal partners neither one being lord over the other and yes this view kind of flies in the face of what many evangelicals have been taught with the man as the leader of the home i love sarah s stance on this though and she does a good job of backing up what she says with scripture somewhat controversial yes but definitely a recommended read note read more about egalitarian marriage on sarah s site she has pulled together a bunch of resources for those who want to pursue this further book review egalitarian faith feminist review 30 apr 2016 review f i t faith inspired transformation by kim dolan leto posted in review words by jenn f i t faith inspired transformation by kim dolan leto another book that i chose to use for my personal bible study as the focus of kim s book is to make god the center of your healthy lifestyle journey i got a lot out of this book it was super helpful to my thinking in this whole get healthy thing i m pursuing you can read more about kim s book and her story on her website www kimdolanleto com book review faith fitness healthy lifestyle review 30 apr 2016 review battlefield of the mind by joyce meyer posted in review words by jenn battlefield of the mind winning the battle in your mind by joyce meyer i used this book as my personal bible study and it was a great read i have many wrong mindsets and strongholds that need to be dealt with so that i can be free this book helped bring to light a lot of these and how i might start going about dealing with them i really enjoyed this book i also really liked that the 30 chapters are just a couple of pages each so it works to read just one a day battle of the mind book review mindsets review 30 apr 2016 review essentialism by greg mckeown posted in review words by jenn essentialism the disciplined pursuit of less by greg mckeown an essentialist is one who determines what is truly essential in life eliminates all else and makes it effortless to pay attention to the essentials this book was really great and i want to own my own copy i read the library s copy it really resonated with me to read more about my thoughts on this one see the post i did at my other site life unleashed book review essentialism review 30 apr 2016 review curious faith by logan wolfram posted in review words by jenn curious faith rediscovering hope in the god of possibility by logan wolfram this book details a lot of logan s ups and downs throughout life but she encourages us to let go of fear worry and mediocrity and to pursue god with a curious faith logan also reminds us to find our identity in god and to be obedient to the things he calls us to do i loved this book it has really made an impact on my day to day as i m now finding ways to be more curious throughout my life more open minded experimenting and trying different things one of my favorite take aways from the book was logan s exercise called praying the opposites where you take your negative feelings look up the opposite in the bible and then pray that positive to god so for example if you were feeling discouraged the opposite would be hopeful so you d look up verses on hope i definitely recommend this book logan s got a great down to earth writing style and there s lots to relate to here book review review 15 mar 2016 why i changed my mind about getting a fitbit posted in body mind by jenn so i ve been saving up money for three months and was really excited to finally be able to buy a fitbit step tracker this coming friday but last night an article came up in my facebook news feed about why the fitbit and other trackers are bad the article s reasoning was that we have become a society culture that worships health and fitness we are always focused on trying to meet some cultural standard or a health goal we are never content to just eat wholesome food and make sure that we move in a way that feels fun to us the article ended by saying that we should ask ourselves why we really want to track things health related like the number of steps we ve taken or the number of calories eaten and also what we intend to do with that information once we have it for me i genuinely do want to make myself move more i sit far too much and i know that that s not good for me the reason i wanted to get the fitbit is because i figured it would challenge me to want to move more and yet i know myself and my own patterns i know that more than likely what would happen is that i would buy the gadget use it and be excited about it and love the challenge for about 2 3 weeks then just like with everything else the fun and novelty would wear off and it would be just another obligation and this rebel me does not do well with any form of obligation as such the 130 spent on this toy would eventually go to waste as the article stated i would be much better off following my own intuition doing what feels right for me eating less and moving more and doing so naturally not because some device is dictating that i need to do this or that gradually i d end up working my way toward an overall healthier lifestyle no devices required so yeah i don t think i m going to buy a fitbit after all instead i ll use the money i m saving to hmm buy some new books perhaps fitbit health psychology tracking 9 comments 11 mar 2016 level up your life by steve kamb a review posted in mind by jenn level up your life how to unlock adventure and happiness by becoming the hero of your own story by steve kamb description for the past 5 years steve kamb has transformed himself from wanna be daydreamer into a real life superhero and actually turned his life into a gigantic video game flying stunt planes in new zealand gambling in a tuxedo at the casino de monte carlo and even finding nemo on the great barrier reef to help him accomplish all of these goals he built a system that allowed him to complete quests take on boss battles earn experience points and literally level up his life if you have always dreamed of adventure and growth but can t seem to leave your hobbit hole steve s book level up your life is for you he will teach you exactly how to use your favorite video games books and movies as inspiration for adventure rather than an escape from the grind of everyday life hundreds of thousands of everyday joes and jills have joined steve s rebellion through his popular website nerdfitness com and leveled up their lives losing weight getting stronger and living better in level up your life you ll meet more than a dozen of these members of the rebellion men and women young and old single and married from all walks of life who have created superhero versions of themselves to live adventurously and happily within this guide you ll follow in their footsteps and learn exactly how to

for any adventure build in rewards and accountability that will actually motivate you to succeed travel the world freely and cheaply recruit the right allies to your side and find powerful mentors for guidance adventure is out there and the world needs more heroes will you heed the call i really enjoyed this book i think part of this is because i can totally identify with the concept of the rebellion as steve put it in the book opting out of the mundane and yes this is sooooo something that resonates with me i also truly love the concept of personal gamification turning everyday life into a game making it fun because steve is right too often we take life far too seriously play is a necessary ingredient for a fulfilling life even especially for adults in researching more about personal gamification i also came across louise s site my epic life louise goes into more detail about what it s like to turn your life into a game i found her manifesto to be most helpful i m actually really excited to create my alter ego character and to decide which quests i ll complete in order to level up my life you ll probably hear more about this from me in the months to come i definitely recommend this book especially if you love the idea of making life more fun 2 comments 3 mar 2016 a quick note on creativity posted in explore mind by jenn when it comes to creativity to being creative so many people are unsure of where to start they look at others work and it paralyzes them comparison is the thief of joy you need to stop worrying about whether or not your work will be gorgeous or good enough or as good as so and so s just start only by starting can you find your own style and gain the confidence to keep going art isn t about doing things perfectly it s about creating playing putting your unique spin on things and that is enough art creativity starting 1 comment post navigation older posts follow sbr via email enter your email address to follow this blog
