In October 1863, the Union Army of the Cumberland was besieged in Chattanooga, all but surrounded by familiar opponents: the Confederate Army of Tennessee.

Soon, even those quarter-rations would not suffice. Disaster was in the offing.

Con su estilo claro y desenfadado, Suzanne Powell nos introduce en el mundo de la alimentación consciente, mostrándonos lo que conviene comer y lo que debemos evitar. Nos dice cómo seguir una dieta equilibrada y divertida, que pueda adaptarse a la casa, al trabajo, a la playa y a los viajes. Lo importante es adquirir buenos hábitos, sanos y placenteros; alimentarnos sin sufrir, sin sentirnos “a dieta” y sin llamar la atención socialmente. Nos dice que tan importante o más que elegir alimentos saludables es combinarlos adecuadamente.

La budeidad, la iluminación o el despertar significan lo mismo, y se alcanzan cuando uno llega a la frecuencia o al estado de paz y calma en su mente, en su corazón, en su cuerpo y en su espíritu. Es justo el punto en el que uno consigue olvidarse de sí mismo, acceder a la nada y atravesarla para encontrarse en el todo. Allí se fusiona con la luz del amor incondicional.

The Battle of New Market in the Shenandoah Valley suffers from no lack of drama, interest, or importance. The ramifications of the May 1864 engagement, which involved only 10,000 troops, were substantial. Previous studies, however, focused on the Confederate side of the story. David Powell’s Union Command Failure in the Shenandoah: Major General Franz Sigel and the War in the Valley of Virginia, May 1864 provides the balance that has so long been needed.

Escuchar a Suzanne forma parte de esa llamada de luz, de esa avanzadilla angélica que pretende traer desde las estrellas esa sed de justicia, esa necesidad de colmar nuestra existencia con un nuevo paradigma que pasa por la generosidad, por la sencillez, por valores que tienen que ver con una vida nueva, mejor, más amorosa y profunda.
