Toutes les personnes? Oui, tout le monde ! Et cela vous inclut, cher lecteur.

Historiquement, les penseurs les plus brillants et les plus élitistes de notre monde ont toujours préféré les plantes aux animaux dans leurs assiettes. Cela inclut Albert Einstein, Albert Newton, Nicola Tesla, Hippocrate, Pythagore, Benjamin Franklin, Budha, Gandhi, etc. Les premiers végétaliens ont maintenu ce mode de vie sain tandis que les masses s’accrochaient à des schémas fatigués de comportements insensés, malsains et barbares.

Aujourd’hui, toutes les principales organisations et études de santé soutiennent les régimes à base de plantes. Cela comprend l’Organisation mondiale de la santé et son Centre international de recherche sur le cancer (CIRC), l’American Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, le Food & Organisation des Nations Unies pour l’agriculture*, l’American Heart Association, l’American Journal of Cardiology et The China Study, basée sur 20 ans de recherche par l’Université Cornell, l’Université d’Oxford et l’Académie chinoise de médecine préventive , une étude décrite par le New York Times comme “le Grand Prix de l’épidémiologie”.

Tous les athlètes sérieux préfèrent les plantes pour alimenter leurs performances. Et cela inclut les champions de l’UFC, les stars du football de la NFL, les coureurs d’ultra-marathon, les joueurs de baseball des ligues majeures, les stars du basket-ball de la NBA, les champions d’haltérophilie, les patineurs artistiques et les boxeurs champions poids lourds.

Inner peace cannot be purchased or sold, nor can it be downloaded or e-mailed. The good news is that you already have it within you. If you have not found it yet, you are probably not far from finding it. The most common reason for not finding inner peace is that we instead chase after small portions of outer peace. We tell ourselves that we have found inner peace, and we stop searching for true inner peace before even beginning to search within. The following tips will help you to distinguish true inner peace from its impostor, outer peace.

Inner peace vs. outer peace

Inner peace is always within you, while outer peace depends on one or more outside circumstances. Inner peace was within you before you were born, will be with you after you die, and it is in you now, even if chaos surrounds you. Outer peace comes and goes depending on external circumstances, such as soft music or nature sounds, a relaxing massage or a yoga class. Inner peace is permanent; outer peace is temporary.

Yoga and the search for inner peace

Yoga is designed to help you find inner peace, and all true yoga masters have found it. Continue reading “A Roadmap to Inner Peace”

Redefining Pizza, from Addictive Drug to Superfood

The Original Pizza Recipe was Delicious but Flawed

Pizza is an Italian specialty dish that has spread across the globe in a million variations. In some cases, the only resemblance to the original is its characteristic disk shape. Millions have invented “new” versions of pizza, usually by adding ingredients. Sadly, few have had the courage (or the knowledge) to address the two major problems with the original Neapolitan recipe. Continue reading “Redefining Pizza, from Addictive Drug to Superfood”
