Mark Victor Hansen (of Chicken Soup For the Soul fame) has
just posted a great list of Superfoods in preparation for the
“MEGA Youngevity” online seminar he’s about to host.
You may already know about many of these, but Mark’s put these
together in a great summary format that I thought you’d enjoy.
And here’s my challenge to you:
Pick one of these that you wouldn’t otherwise have eaten this week…
Picture yourself picking it up at the store, from a friend, or
ordering it online…
Then picture yourself enjoying it…
And then go do it…
And let me know your own experiences in the comments below.
You may even want to print out this list and keep it in your kitchen
or by your shopping list.
Oh, and be sure to check out Mark’s unique webcast, MEGA Youngevity.
I understand that Art Linkletter has just joined the faculty!
