The DeFlame Diet.

So I have a great book I want to recommend to you. It’s called “The Deflame Diet: DeFlame your diet, body, and mind” by Dr. David Seaman.

This book is great. I’ve been eating this way for awhile now. If you’re a Voice Talent who has to clear their throat a lot throughout the day, maybe have some post-nasal drip, or are feeling sluggish and run down – you want to check this book out. The link above is an affiliate link through Amazon.com.

It was given to me by my trainer Mandla Nkosi. The book explains through scientific research that most chronic diseases like heart disease, high blood pressure, bad cholesterol, diabetes, Alzheimer’s and a host of others are all caused by eating an “Inflammatory diet.” An inflammatory diet is one that promotes chronic inflammation throughout the body that over time leads to these diseases.

Sources of inflammation are refined sugars and grains – pretty much a good portion of the “Western” diet. The book explains how inflammation gets started and how it affects every cell in our body. It also explains how to “DeFlame” and live a healthier lifestyle. It’s not as crazy and hard to do as you may think. You just need to look out for a few key ingredients and eat whole, unprocessed foods.

Have you modified your eating plan to help your voice? Please share your thoughts with us below!

“Traditional” BIG Companies Are Impacted Too!

Bic Pens is waging “Fight for your Write” letting us know that Penmanship leads to improved creativity, better reading comprehension and retention of information.

Experts on the Bic web site bicfightforyourwrite.com discuss studies about how handwriting is linked to better learning. How writing and learning are wired together in the brain and how kids who aren’t writing – literally have brains that are “wired” differently than most of the people who listen to this podcast who grew up going to school learning penmanship!

Why do you think Bic got involved? They’re not selling pens like they used to.

Even Retailers on the Cutting Edge of Technology Gadgets…

Staples is seeing a drop in sales in notepads and other things people used to write on. I just got an email from Staples today letting me know they offer Small Business Loans.

They’re looking for other sources of revenue. Why? Technology is impacting sectors of the economy in ways that we never considered.

Can this happen to Voice Over?

I believe it can.

In this episode I discuss why and how I believe we can be replaced…

And I offer an alternative to offset that possibility through the creation of our own products and services that we market and sell.

I Offer YOU an Opportunity to Watch As I Create a Product…
