Natural Highs
Author: Hyla Cass, Patrick Holford

We all need a boost now and then. Sometimes just a cup of coffee or tea will do the trick. Maybe a candy bar or a soda to get over the afternoon slump. Or perhaps a cocktail or a cigarette to help relax at the end of the day. — And there are other "little helpers"-both legal and illegal-which millions of Americans rely on for feel-good purposes. ... more » Whether we're talking Prozac or pot, cigarettes or Sominex, we automatically reach for chemical crutches to calm us down or lift us up, energize us or help us get to sleep.

Unfortunately, all of them-from the French roast to the pharmaceuticals-have side effects. They don't begin to touch the underlying problems that are making us feel bad to begin with. And some can be addictive, setting us up for a an emotional roller coaster; we feel great one minute, then we crash and burn, plummeting into the black hole of withdrawal symptoms of fatigue, stress, and depression.

Fortunately, there is a new way to get the highs we need-naturally. In their groundbreaking new book, Natural Highs: Supplements, Nutrition, and Mind/Body Techniques to Help You Feel Good All the Time psychiatrist Hyla Cass and nutritional expert Patrick Holford offer a breakthrough program-based on nutrition supplements, herbs, and simple mind/body therapies-that will energize, relax, de-stress, and sharpen our mental focus without wreaking havoc on our minds and bodies.

Cass and Holford outline a perfect "brain food" diet, based on extensive research in the areas of nutrition, psychology, and brain chemistry:

* Hangover-free alternatives to relaxing with a beer, martini, or a glass of wine

* Natural, non-addictive ways to get the same energy kick that we get from coffee, tea, or cigarettes * Safe, natural, and effective alternatives to Prozac and Valium with no side effects

* Nourishing foods that can replenish and restore our brains and to counteract the depleting effects of stress or substance abuse

* Natural nutrients to help take us to higher states of awareness and connection, without the side effects of drugs

* Natural substances that can help us escape addictions-some of which we may not even realize we have.

With questionnaires, tips, and A-Z lists, Natural Highs also explores other feel-good strategies like breathing, meditation, exercise, deep sleep, positive thinking, sex, aromatherapy, and more.

Getting high has never been so healthy, non-addictive, and easy-as easy as picking up this book and taking a quick trip to the supermarket or health food store. Isn't it time we all started feeling good-and staying that way?
