lemon-water-flickr-citeIf the sound of lemon water and cayenne pepper-all day long, and without room for any other snacks or meals-sounds less than appealing, know that you're not alone. While cleanses, especially during summer, have been at the frontline of the dietary battleground for some time now (made popular by the Beyonce's, the Gwyneth's and other waist-watching A-list celebs), most nutrition experts agree-these pseudo liquid fasts should probably be cleansed from our vocabulary for good.

According to Zeel fitness and weight loss expert Johnny Nasello, "All of these diets have two things in common:"

1. "With these diets you lose 5 to 10 pounds really quickly, and with no additional physical exertion. This is a huge gimmick selling point for these diets. Who doesn't want to lose 5 to 10 pounds really quickly?"

2. "None of these diets provide a blueprint on how you should eat for the rest of your life. Nobody can maintain a restrictive or cleanse diet

Close your eyes. Imagine for a moment that you had a year - 365 days, 8,760 hours, 525,600 minutes - to do anything you please, with $100,000 to cover your expenses. Would you travel? Would you continue working and give the money to charity? Would you take the time to simply do nothing, maybe go on retreat?

Last week, Mallika encouraged Intent-ers to consider what they would do if they had a year off. I have to say, my first inclination was default to the "make-the-world-a-better-place" answer- give it to charity, of course! I mean, I know this may sound crazy, but I love working. Even if I had a year off, I don't think I could bring myself to drop my job and do nothing. So if my ideal year would include working anyway, why not give it away, especially when we know that contributing to others' happiness is a much greater source of joy and fulfillment than anything money could buy?

But as I thought about it more, I remembered the words of a friend I

I'm 16, and I understand basic psychology well enough to know that mental punishment is always an option. You can and should teach children something is wrong through mental punishment. Physical punishment shows them that physicality is okay when it absolutely is not. Hug your child or congratulate them when they do something good. When they do something bad, explain that it is a bad thing ad you are disappointed, don't end with an 'I love you'. As you grow your brain becomes more complex. Parents need to realize that a 5-year-old doesn't process things as well as you do (normally, some extremely stupid people) but they do understand when they feel loved and when they don't. While as a parent you will obviously always love your child, as a child, you only recognize it when it is expressed. The one thing every child strives for is parental affection. Just show them love when they do something good, and not when they do something bad.
