Hi Jill,
I just started a blogging site and your article came up of my book, The Way is Within.
I thought you might like to see what I have been doing.
I now have five books and am involved in a Medical study at UCSD in San Diego with Kelee Meditation which I developed.
I am waiting for the study to complete before I approach Oprah and DR Oz. I am still in contact with the editor at the O magazine. Interesting path writing.
Any way, Good luck with your writing.
Ron W. Rathbun

Comment on How to Stop Emotional Eating by Sophie

How to stop emotionally eating – I was an emotional eater but found great substitutes after identifying what foods I was addicted to. Water has become my best friend and I lost 4 pounds this month through what I learned from http://www.totellwellness.com .

“Greene recommends paying attention to what triggers your eating or lack of eating…”

This part of your article is great advice because I used what my program calls “Emotional Ammo Cards” to take with me every where I go so I can document what I am feeling when I get cravings and a mantra of how to overcome that craving.

Thanks for the article, I am glad this has become a trend because I really do feel that this works better than traditional diets.

Comment on Finishing up the July 2007 Issue (Men! Men! Men!) by Linda

I have been a O! reader since the beginning (but havent kept the issues– they are so heavy, not to mention space-hoggers).

I came across your blog while searching for the winners of the $250,000 sweepstakes (as much as I thought it would be me, I havent heard from them yet….Do you know who won?!)

Anyway, I am glad to see these comments about the changes in the magazine- I started noticing it a year or maybe even 2 years ago. I thought exactly the same thing: it is becoming like every other woman`s magazine.

Sometimes I think we do not need to change- even as Bean says- why do we think we need to fix ourselves? Looks like the magazine is doing that, when, in my opinion, there was nothing to change in the first place!

Comment on Success in a Paragraph-by Ralph Fiennes by Jeff

I came across this post because I was googling for that quote on success by Fiennes. I had read it in a magazine interview with him about 10 years ago and thought it a wonderful statement. That little paragraph was his response to the interviewer asking him how he felt about his success as an Oscar-nominated actor. It’s a great statement about focusing on what’s important in life rather than soaking in materialism or letting the drudgery of daily tasks drag you down…or letting yourself be snarky.

Comment on Ho! Ho! Ho! A Little Cheaper O List! by Douglas

Oprah is starting over… ever notice how New Year resolutions tend to come to mind as easily as they tend to leave? We all know it too well; without a specific plan of action and the right tool – it will never work!

I started over again 18 months ago with Body’Fit pHx. I do it ever morning. The routine of exercise only take 15 minutes. I’m 40lbs lighter and love my life again. I addition I now eat better and ride my bike to work every day. I’m 53, Oprah’s 54. It’s not too late!
