Singles of All Ages: Get Secrets to Attract the Love of Your Life With Bestselling Author Arielle Ford

Lonely, frustrated and discouraged never-married singles, divorced people or widowers, this is for you!

Have you been wondering what it takes to find the love of your life?

Do you dream of finding a life partner and experiencing a deeply loving and fulfilling relationship?

And if you're a woman over age 30, have you bought into the often-repeated, ridiculous myth that you have a better chance of getting run over by a car than finding a man?

Well, Arielle Ford is living proof of the absurdity of that belief.

In fact, she manifested the love of her life at age 44. Not only that, but they were engaged three weeks later and have now been married 11 happy years.

Now Arielle is sharing her secrets in a fabulous new book, The Soulmate Secret: Manifest the Love of Your Life With the Law of Attrction and a companion Soulmate Secret CD.

But you don't have to just read the book. Arielle is coming in a special, just-added The Gab With the Gurus Radio Show on Wednesday, Jan. 14.

Having the show on Jan. 14 was a choice I made deliberately. It'll be fun to present a program exactly one month before Valentine's Day so that you singles out there can get hope before what could be one of the most lonely days of the year if you don't have a significant other.

The Gab With the Gurus Radio Show on Wednesday, Jan. 14 is sure to be an empowering, life-changing interview, which can help lonely singles around the world.

I'm so excited about this show. Arielle -- who is acclaimed for launching the careers of numerous mega-bestselling authors, including the renowned Deepak Chopra -- will talk about this ancient attract-what-you-want formula so that you can draw into your life people and things that are consistent with your personal belief system.

Arielle will tell you about techniques, rituals and projects that you can undertake to help prepare your home, body, mind and spirit for the soulmate your heart desires and deserves.

Singles, divorced peoople and widowers, you need to listen to this show no matter what your age. The Soulmate Secret that Arielle will share works for women and men of all ages. It even worked for Arielle's 80-year-old mother-in-law, Peggy!

If you're serious about finding Big Love in your life in 2009, now is the time to take action. Listen to this radio show and then take action by buying Arielle's new book, The Soulmate Secret: Manifest the Love of Your Life With the Law of Attrction.

Get Twitter Trained Before 24-Hour TwitAsYouQuit Event As Part of Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge

Learn how to use Twitter before the 24-hour TwitAsYouQuit event that Dr. Scott Olson and I are presenting on Jan. 16 as part of the Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge.

During the TwitAsYouQuit event -- to be held from 12 noon EST on Jan. 16 to 12 noon Jan. 17 -- you'll get frequent, 140-character tweets providing quick sound bites about sugar's dangers, micro messages about how you can benefit from kicking your habit, short tips from authors of sugar books on to kick the sweet stuff, etc.

To best take advantage of the TwitAsYouQuit program, I urge you to listen to this fabulous Twitter for Journalists program first.

By the way, although this was designed as a "Twitter for Journalists" event, anybody -- whether or not you're in the journalism profession -- can benefit from this fascinating program, hosted by Sree Sreenivasan, Columbia University School of Journalism's dean of student affairs, new media professor at  the Graduate School of Journalism and tech reporter for WNBC-TV.

You'll crack up when you hear Sree's introduction about how they're devoting 90 minutes to a program that's all about writing micro messages only 140 characters long.

FYI, as you'll learn on the show, you can search here (at www.search.twitter.com), then plop in a hash tag" (a # sign) and then write the name of the group or person you're following. In this case, you would put in #columbiaj to learn about who's talking about Sree's fabulous program.

Speakers include:

• Alums Arik Hesseldahl, BusinessWeek senior technology writer (@ahess247);
• Shel Israel, author of the forthcoming Twitterville: Getting Closer to Customers During Tough Times (September), (@shelisrael);
• Daniel Terdiman, senior writer, CNET News.com (@greeterdan).
• Andrew Lei, author of the upcoming book, The Wikipedia Revolution: How a Bunch of Nobodies Created the World's Greatest Encyclopedia (March) @fuzheado
• And Sree (@sreenet), of course, who's the moderator, as noted earlier.

Join The First Annual Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge (on Jan. 16, 2009)

Join The First Annual Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge, which takes place Jan. 16.

My co-organizer Dr. Scott Olson and I urge you to commit in writing to one day of looking at your sugar issues, learning about the dangers of overloading on the stuff and designating one day to cut out the stuff (or at least cut back).

Sign up now.

Make sure to tell us about your sugar history, what a lot of sweets do to you and what you envision for the future if you made being sugar-free a reality.

If you feel trapped by your sugar habit, then you'll want to join our inspirational, first-of-a-kind Sugar-Out Challenge. What are you waiting for?  Join us now.

And please spread the word. Grab a kick-sugar buddy and take our challenge together. Invite your friends and loved ones to come along for the adventurous ride, too. Help us to help lots of people around the world -- our goal is to get a huge viral campaign going around the world.

This just in: Kick-sugar success stories Jimmy Moore, a well-known blogger (on your left), and Amanda Lerner, a friend of mine from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, will appear on my Gab With the Gurus Radio Show on Jan. 16 for the Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge to tell their remarkable success stories.

Jimmy, who's been on my radio show before, will briefly relate his remarkable tale about how he lost 180 pounds, in large part, because he kicked sugar, which he now regards as "poison."

And Amanda, who went to IIN with me, will happily share how she's now more than a year into being "in recovery." She told her story on this blog, too. See her Dear John letter here, too. (When it comes to kicking sugar, there are different schools of thought as to how you should label the fact that you've kicked the stuff. I'm in the camp that shies away from the word recovery but many other folks prefer that term.)

Get in the mood now to join this first-of-a-kind event by becoming a member of my free online Kicksugar discussion group.

FYI, in case you don't know about my other blog, check out the Sugar Shock Blog for updates about health, wellness and more.

Experts & Sugar Kickers Weigh In On The Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge

Quotes are starting to come in from supporters of The Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge, which takes place virtually around the world on both my Gab With the Gurus Radio Show and via tantalizing tweets on Twitter at my site and also at our new TwitAsYouQuit site, which will be the happening place to be from 12 noon Eastern on Jan. 16 to 12 p.m. on Jan. 17.

Check back here regularly to this URL to read updates from a variety of medical supporters. Here's what we have so far:

"Many so-called mental health problems, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, addiction and even bipolar illness have a strong relationship to blood sugar imbalance, caused by eating--you guessed it, sugar! These often-serious conditions can be overcome by eliminating sugar, eating a healthy diet, and taking specific supplements, as needed. I have helped many of my patients and readers replace medication using this natural approach, with excellent results!...."

- Hyla Cass M.D., integrative psychiatrist and author of 8 Weeks to Vibrant Health and Natural Highs

"As a Certified Nutritional Microscopist (live & dried blood analysis, trained by Dr. Robert O. Young), I have seen the devastation caused by the fermentation of sugar in the body.  You see, sugar will either burn as a fuel (because you have enough oxygen present) OR since our body has limits to how much oxygen we can intake...  sugar that cannot have oxygen to be able to burn will ferment which increases ACIDITY considerably. "

- Rick Panson, Certified Nutritional Microscopist, Raw Food Creator of Raw Jaw Foods &  Water Filtration/ionization Consultant

"Sugar is a major cause of inflammation in the body and therefore a cause of many modern diseases. I support your efforts fully!"

- Gerianne C. Geszler, M.D., The Center for Health and Restoration, Inc., Fayetteville, North Carolina

"I'm excited to be a part of Connie Bennett's First Annual Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge, because kicking my sugar habit five years ago saved me from morbid obesity and certain heath destruction."

- Jimmy Moore, founder of the Livin' La Vida Low Carb Blog Spot

"I am a registered nurse... and I have avoided sugars for 10 years now. I think that The Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge is a great idea. Let's all decrease our sugar intake so that we can increase our intake of nutrient rich, delicious foods that will leave us healthy and satisfied. We'll feel better, look better, live longer, be more efficient, think more clearly and enjoy more."
