	The Lost Art of Being Happy-Spirituality for the Sceptics by Tony Wilkinson What inner skills do we need to live happily? There must be many answers, but the book develops an approach by looking at what can go wrong, at what spoils our happiness. The important thing though is not to know some magic list, but just to have a reasonable system and then practice, practice, practice as our inner lives reap more and more benefits. These are the five sets of skills we suggest – Mindfulness, Benevolence, Story, Letting Go & Enjoyment.
	Wheatgrass-Nature's Finest Medicine by Steve Meyerowitz If you have ever been curious about wheat grass then this is a very good book. It's now the rage at all the juice bars even at the mall. The book explains the different types of grass, why one is better than another and what to avoid. I now have a much sharper eye and always demand to see the wheat grass before it gets pressed. I avoid the juice bars with ignorant kids working at them because they don't know what they are doing and so why waste my time. It's not preachy and I also appreciate that too.

Even those who are not ready to fully embrace a vegetarian lifestyle will find this information thought-provoking and motivational enough to follow suggestions on how to make a difference one day and one bite at a time.
