REVIEW
just what i was looking for i've done the 3 second trimester workouts....because that is where i am in my pregnancy. at first i thought i'd do all three at once for a 45 minute workout. i learned quickly that that was unnecessary. each one is a challenging full body workout. most other pregnancy videos i've done have not been challenging enough or did not work the whole body. this one surely does, safely....quads, hamstrings, butt, abs, back, shoulders, triceps, biceps, heart.
the equipment needed are light free weights, a stability ball, a resistance band, a chair and a towel. i did not rate this video with 5 stars because in my opinion, a resistance band is not easy to use anywhere. i am unable to anchor a band in the area i workout. so instead of the band, i use free weights when i'm able or no resistance.
i would definitely recommend this video.

REVIEW
My kids love this video My two kids, age 4 and 3, watch this video over and over. It's really teaching them to get active and eat healthy. my little one is actually asking for healthy foods now! There's a lot of humor in there for the grownups watching as well (which makes repeat viewing enjoyable for me, too). My kids love to jump along with grover, and they really get a kick out of the slapstick. I'm so glad we got this video!

REVIEW
Very Disappointing, not worth it! I have to agree with other reviewers on wishing I had a heads up to the amount of equipment I needed..and with such a SHORT workout, I found that it was very excessive to have so many different tools needed. I had been working out prior to my pregnancy so I found this to be a very easy workout as well. Just felt disappointed and not impressed at all.
Amazon.comMany of the words of wisdom dispensed by Andrew Weil, "America's most trusted physician," in the course of Healthy Aging are elementary, even obvious. But that doesn't make them any less relevant, as Weil takes on an issue that most in this youth-obsessed culture would just as soon ignore. Originally aired on PBS, this program is essentially an 85-minute lecture by the Harvard-educated doc, a prolific author and Integrative Medicine pioneer now based at the University of Arizona; sans props, guests, or bells and whistles of any sort, it's all rather static. What's more, while his assertions that aging is not necessarily synonymous with diseases like cancer and Alzheimer's and that memory loss and aging don't have to go hand in hand are provocative, we're more than a third into it before Weil delivers any really practical ideas for those 60 and over whose goal is what he calls "compression of morbidity"--i.e., living not only long, but well. Even then, it should come as no surprise that eliminating certain unhealthy (i.e., fast-digesting) fats, oils, and carbohydrates from one's diet, engaging in regular and age-appropriate physical activity, sleeping well, and managing stress are key steps along that path. Still, Weil articulates these points in engaging, articulate fashion, and some of his specific recommendations (such as keeping the mind active by learning new things, practicing yoga-like breathing exercises, or composing an "ethical will" that will record one's personal values, wisdom, and experience) have considerable worth and appeal. For those unwilling to wade through the wealth of talk and information that occupies the first hour or so, these topics are summarized near the end of the DVD in Weil's "12-Point Program." --Sam Graham
REVIEW
Aging Gracefully Dr. Andrew Weil presents the topic of healthy aging in a beautiful garden setting that looks like a Garden of Eden. The topic of aging has almost become like a tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Should you taste of the fruit of youth from medical knowledge and put yourself in opposition to nature or taste of the fruits of maturity as they present themselves in all their positive aspects.
Lifestyle changes to increase the depression of morbidity are promoted, but taking hormones is not something Dr. Weil seems to be interested in because he encourages a more natural pathway. Instead of rejecting the aging process, he embraces the wisdom and positive aspects of growing older.

What is an anti-inflammatory diet?
Dr. Andrew Weil's trips overseas have given him insight into how many cultures live and how they treat the aging population. He gives a list of foods you can incorporate into your diet to make you healthier and to live a long, happy life. At the end of this PBS special, there is a summary of all the things you can do to contribute to your own mental, emotional and physical health. The extras include a short biography, ideas for creating a walking labyrinth, the 4-7-8 breathing technique, more information on an ethical will and additional questions from the audience.
Dr. Andrew Weil's wisdom has helped me on all levels and his medical advice is practical and healing. When you really get down to the basics of what you need to feel better in life, Dr. Weil has the answers. His breathing exercises and tips on how to get a better night's sleep are priceless.

Healthy Raw eating Made Easy If you are looking for a DVD to show/instruct you on how to prepare healthy and raw meals. Then this is the DVD. It removes any unknowns in your mind on how do I eat raw and healthy foods other than just salads and be satisfied. The instructions and recipes prepared along with the guidance given will give you the know-how and the motivation that you can easily make anything. For me, it opened up my mind in how easy it was to prepare certain meals in a more simpler, easier and faster way. I made/prepared all the recipes they showed and they all tasted great. I feel like a raw food chef. Recommend this DVD highly.

REVIEW
Who needs Jane Fonda when you've got workout buddies like these? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I never would have believed it... We popped this exercise-oriented Sesame Street collection in, and my little girl (who still likes to say "hi" back when video characters say hello to her) jumped out of her chair when Bert and Grover asked her to do some calisthenics... "Look at me jump!" she chirped. The next day, after a swim class, she showed me how to do the breast stroke: "Ernie showed me how to do this on the Sesame Street video!" I kid you not. So, this educational DVD was a success, at least in this neck of the woods. I still have a hard time with the new voice for Ernie... but there was only one Jim Henson, so what are you gonna do? If you're looking for a fun kid's video that promotes good health, diet and exercise choices, this is a mighty fine option. (Joe Sixpack, ReadThatAgain kid's movie reviews)
Disorder in the Court (1936): The Stooges are key witnesses in a murder trial, and create havoc when reconstructing the crime.
Healthy, Wealthy and Dumb (1938): When Curly wins $50,000 in a jingle contest, the Stooges check into a swank hotel and begin living the high life...at least until they get the lowdown on exactly how much money they are left with after taxes.
Pardon my Scotch(1935): During Prohibition, the Stooges are asked to mix spirits for a bootlegger.
REVIEW
Classic Stooge Comedy. HEALTHY, WEALTHY, AND DUMB is a collection of six classic Stooge shorts. The films all star the original stooges: Larry, Moe, and Curly. The films are unbelievable clear and crisp and are of the highest quality. The six films on this DVD are:
"Healthy, Wealthy, and Dumb"--Curly wins a fortune in a jingle contest. The stooges decide to live it up in style. Three gold diggers find out about their good luck and attempt to steal the boys away, but just for their money. However, the stooges learn that Uncle Sam isn't very generous.
"Gents Without Cents"--in this story, the Stooges are a bunch of comedy performers trying to get their break in show business. They team up with girls in the apartment below and put on a great showstopper for the armed services. This film contains the famous "Niagra Falls" vaudeville bit.
"If a Body Meets a Body"--the boys spend a night in a house that appears to be haunted. This film seems like something Abbot and Costello would make, but the Stooges pull it off brilliantly. Itmakes me wish they would have made more comedies like this.
"Rockin' Thru the Rockies"--the Stooges are supposed to be guides and escorts for Nell's Belles, but on their way find themselves lost in the woods. They have to watch out for Indians and a snowstorm.
"Phony Express"--the Stooges are vagrants, but a town desperate for some law and order uses their wanted poster to make them into marshalls. Things go great until the bad guys discover the truth.
"Whoops, I'm an Indian"--the Stooges disguise themselves as Indians to hide out from a big man who has a big temper.
This is a great collection of classic, Stooge comedy. I specifically bought this DVD for "Gents Without Cents" (the Niagra Falls routine has haunted me all my life) and "If a Body Meets a Body", but the other features are just as great to watch.

REVIEW
fun ideas This DVD was a good source of ideas. Booklet is great and a good resource. My kids are showing their friends their lunches now - shaped sandwhiches, etc. I can tell this is making a difference already.
Basic Cooking Ideas I thought this DVD was a great introduction to cooking and to healthy cooking. Andrea, the woman doing the demos was cheerful and enthusiastic and showed basic kitchen tools she thinks are helpful, and also talked about different kinds of healthy foods and how to prepare them healthfully - from vegies to meats and vegetarian options, etc. A LOT of good ideas, and a lot of information for anyone interested in learning about healthy grains andvegies they aren't familiar with.
