This is going by so fast, I guess ’tis the season, though. I hope you are having a good relaxed season so far, and that it stays that way for the next few weeks too!

On to Week Three!

The projects for this week are to shop around for organic produce–Dr. Weil provides us with a list of those vegetables that are particularly susceptable to agrichemicals on p. 84 (some of these include strawberries, peppers, green beans, apples and celery). This is good information to know!

We are also to remove all electrical sources from the immediate vicinity of where we sleep, as radiation is a concern. Also, buy UV protective sunglasses if you do not have any.

Dietary changes in Week Three are add an extra serving of veggies to one meal this week, eat fish twice, and replace one serving of meat with a soy product.

Add 400-800 mg of Vitamin E and 200-300 mg of Selenium. (This will be nice and easy, as I bought that big bottle of Vitamin E instead of C at the drugstore during the first week!)

Increase daily walk to 20 minutes, and cut back on other aerobic exercise if you do it daily. Replace it every other day with a walk. Do stretching every day to improve flexibility-he gives examples in this chapter as well.

For the mind and spirit, we are to expand our breathing exercises and add “Let Yourself Be Breathed,” which you can find in this chapter as well, here is some more information online about Dr. Weil’s breathing exercises. This one is described at the bottom of the page.

Make a list of some inspirational books you would be interested in reading. Ask around for recommendations from other people. Also, make a list of your acquaintances who make you feel alive, happy and positive. Vow to spend some more time with them this week. Continue a one day fast from all news this week as well.

Optional activities are to buy more flowers for your home and to learn about how to grow some of your own food, even if you have no more room than a container.
