Recent studies funded by the federal government’s Office of Alternative Medicine prove that meditation helps alleviate symptoms and improve outcome for people who are ill or in pain. These studies were done over the course of 25 years, and they prove that the relaxation response works. Read more about it in Meditation As Medicine: Activate The Power of Your Natural Healing Force.

The research indicates that the relaxation response—in which meditators sit quietly, clear their minds, and focus on a calming phrase—achieves the following biological reactions: marked reduction in oxygen use; notably lower secretion of stress hormones; increase in immune factors, including blood leukocyte production; and calm brain-wave activity. These factors remain intact for several hours after this form of meditation ends.

As a result of the physical factors, meditators enjoyed improved health. Among the many improvements were the following:

• Premenstrual syndrome symptoms decreased by 57 percent.

• Migraine headaches decreased notably.

• Anxiety and depression were reduced significantly.

• Working people missed fewer work days due to illness.

• Patients with AIDS and cancer experienced decreased symptoms.

• Seventy-five percent of patients with insomnia were cured, and almost 25 percent improved.

• Patients with chronic pain required an average of 36 percent less treatment.

• Patients with high blood pressure recovered completely, or improved.

This is like a lobster roll made with shrimp. Since lobster is basically from New England and shrimp are from the South—mainly around the Sea Islands of South Carolina—I decided to put my personal spin on an all-American favorite. From Melba’s American Comfort.

Makes 6 Servings

1 ½ pounds cooked and peeled large shrimp, cut up (about 4 cups)
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons minced red onion
1 tablespoon peeled and finely chopped celery
1 tablespoon finely chopped red bell pepper
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh tarragon leaves
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
½ teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ lemon or lime
6 New England style (top-slit) or hot dog buns*
4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter, melted
1 head of butter lettuce, leaves separated, rinsed, dried, and torn into pieces

*For hot dog buns, I prefer Martin’s potato buns

In a large bowl, combine the shrimp and mayonnaise, stirring gently to coat all the shrimp. Add the red onion, celery, bell pepper, tarragon, parsley, chives, Old Bay Seasoning, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine. Squeeze the lemon or lime juice over the mixture and stir again. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the buns.

If using top-slit buns, open them up but leave them connected at the bottom. If the buns are not slit, slice them almost but not all the way through. Set a
skillet over medium-high heat. Brush the insides of the buns with melted butter and put them buttered-side-down in the pan to brown (be careful not to burn them).

To serve, make a bed of lettuce in the bottom of each bun and mound the shrimp mixture on top.

Life Is a Wheel

by Bruce Weber

View Details

Life Is a Wheel chronicles the cross-country bicycle trip Bruce Weber made at the age of fifty-seven, an “entertaining travel story filled with insightful thoughts about life, family, and aging” (The Associated Press).During the summer and fall of 2011, Bruce Weber, an obituary writer for The New York Times, bicycled across the country, alone, and wrote about it as it unfolded. Life Is a Wheel is the witty, inspiring, and reflective diary of his journey, in which the challenges and rewards of self-reliance and strenuous physical effort yield wry and incisive observations about cycling and America, not to mention the pleasures of a three-thousand-calorie breakfast. The story begins on the Oregon coast, with Weber wondering what he’s gotten himself into, and ends in triumph on New York City’s George Washington Bridge. From Going-to-the-Sun Road in the northern Rockies to the headwaters of the Mississippi and through the cityscapes of Chicago and Pittsburgh, his encounters with people and places provide us with an intimate, two-wheeled perspective of America. And with thousands of miles to travel, Weber considers his past, his family, and the echo that a well-lived life leaves behind. Part travelogue, part memoir, part romance, part paean to the bicycle—and part bemused and panicky account of a middle-aged man’s attempt to stave off, well, you know—Life Is a Wheel is “a book for cyclists, and for anyone who has ever dreamed of such transcontinental travels. But it also should prove enlightening, soul-stirring, even, to those who don’t care a whit about bikes but who care about the way people connect” (The Philadelphia Inquirer).

Roads

by Larry McMurtry

View Details

As he crisscrosses America — driving in search of the present, the past, and himself — Larry McMurtry shares his fascination with this nation’s great trails and the culture that has developed around them. Ever since he was a boy growing up in Texas only a mile from Highway 281, Larry McMurtry has felt the pull of the road. His town was thoroughly landlocked, making the highway his “river, its hidden reaches a mystery and an enticement. I began my life beside it and I want to drift down the entire length of it before I end this book.” In Roads, McMurtry embarks on a cross-country trip where his route is also his destination. As he drives, McMurtry reminisces about the places he’s seen, the people he’s met, and the books he’s read, including more than 3,000 books about travel. He explains why watching episodes of The Mary Tyler Moore Show might be the best way to find joie de vivre in Minnesota; the scenic differences between Route 35 and I-801; which vigilantes lived in Montana and which hailed from Idaho; and the history of Lewis and Clark, Sitting Bull, and Custer that still haunts Route 2 today. As it makes its way from South Florida to North Dakota, from eastern Long Island to Oregon, Roads is travel writing at its best.

Reservation Blues

by Sherman Alexie

View Details

Coyote Springs is the only all-Indian rock band in Washington State—and the entire rest of the world. Thomas Builds-the-Fire takes vocals and bass guitar, Victor Joseph hits lead guitar, and Junior Polatkin rounds off the sound on drums. Backup vocals come from sisters Chess and Checkers Warm Water. The band sings its own brand of the blues, full of poverty, pain, and loss—but also joy and laughter.

It all started one day when legendary bluesman Robert Johnson showed up on the Spokane Indian Reservation with a magical guitar, leaving it on the floor of Thomas Builds-the-Fire’s van after setting off to climb Wellpinit Mountain in search of Big Mom.

In Reservation Blues, National Book Award winner Alexie vaults with ease from comedy to tragedy and back in a tour-de-force outing powered by a collision of cultures: Delta blues and Indian rock.

Blue Highways: A Journey into America

by William Least Heat-Moon

View Details

Hailed as a masterpiece of American travel writing, Blue Highways is an unforgettable journey along our nation’s backroads. William Least Heat-Moon set out with little more than the need to put home behind him and a sense of curiosity about “those little towns that get on the map-if they get on at all-only because some cartographer has a blank space to fill: Remote, Oregon; Simplicity, Virginia; New Freedom, Pennsylvania; New Hope, Tennessee; Why, Arizona; Whynot, Mississippi.” His adventures, his discoveries, and his recollections of the extraordinary people he encountered along the way amount to a revelation of the true American experience.

The Book of Wanderings: A Mother-Daughter Pilgrimage

by Kimberly Meyer

View Details

When Kimberly Meyer gave birth to her first daughter, Ellie, during her senior year of college, the bohemian life of exploration she had once imagined for herself was lost in the responsibilities of single motherhood. For years, both mother and daughter were haunted by how Ellie came into being-Kimberly through a restless ache for the world beyond, Ellie through a fear of abandonment.

Longing to bond with Ellie, now a college student, and longing, too, to rediscover herself, Kimberly sets off with her daughter on a quest for meaning across the globe. Leaving behind the rhythms of ordinary life in Houston, Texas, they dedicate a summer to retracing the footsteps of Felix Fabri, a medieval Dominican friar whose written account of his travels resonates with Kimberly. Their mother-daughter pilgrimage takes them to exotic destinations infused with mystery, spirituality, and rich history-from Venice to the Mediterranean through Greece and partitioned Cyprus, to Israel and across the Sinai Desert with Bedouin guides, to the Palestinian territories and to Cairo and Alexandria in Egypt.

Long Way Down

by Ewan McGregor

View Details

Eighteen countries. Five shock absorbers. Two bikers. One amazing adventure… After their fantastic trip round the world in 2004, fellow actors and bike fanatics Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman couldn’t shake the travel bug. Inspired by their UNICEF visits to Africa, they knew they had to go back and experience this extraordinary continent in more depth. And so they set off on their 15,000-mile journey with two new BMWs loaded up for the trip. Their route took them from John O’Groats at the northernmost tip of Scotland to Cape Agulhas on the southernmost tip of South Africa. Along the way they rode some of the toughest terrain in the world — and met some of the friendliest people. They rode their bikes right up to the pyramids in Egypt and visited Luke Skywalker’s house in Tunisia. They met people who had triumphed over terrifying experiences — former childhood soldiers in Uganda and children living amidst the minefields of Ethiopia. They had a close encounter with a family of gorillas in Rwanda and were nearly trampled by a herd of elephants in Botswana. Riding through spectacular scenery, often in extreme temperatures, Ewan and Charley faced their hardest challenges yet. With their trademark humor and honesty they tell their story — the drama, the dangers and sheer exhilaration of riding together again, through a continent filled with magic and wonder.

Finn McPhee edits a reality TV show. His father, Colin, is a screenwriter. Both are adept at spinning fictions, a skill passed down to them by McPhee patriarch Alistair, whose wild yarns never failed to capture Finn’s youthful imagination;even as they cast a fragile veil over a past marked by devastating loss, unbearable love, and an incessant longing for a life whose heroic proportions could measure up to the breathtakingly vivid color of Alistair’s dreams. As Finn embarks on a road trip across America with his best friend, Randal, and a three-legged cat named Mrs. Dalloway in a last-chance bid to make his grandfather’s dreams come true, he will finally learn that the truth, though not always stranger than fiction, can sometimes make the best story of all.
