Theme:   Interpersonal Chemistry Through Negativity

Author: Lori  December 30, 2007
 

My reading fluctuates between marketing, fashion/entertainment and various “new age” interests. An article that appeared in Fast Company Magazine was particularly unenlightening.  It gave me some insight into what may be an underlying theme that is present in popular culture. The article introduced the concept of “mutual dislike” as it relates to brand preferences. I did a check of my own preferences and my own conversations–and I was a little guilty of applying this concept in my life..but I am going really try to keep this in check.

Here’s an excerpt: “A study published last year in the Journal of Personal Relationships looked at how friendships form and found that mutual dislike was an important factor. “We enjoy meeting people who dislike the same people,” explained Jennifer Bosson, a social psychologist and coauthor of the study, titled “Interpersonal Chemistry Through Negativity.”

Theme:   Celebrity Holistic Detox Guru : Nish Joshi

Author: Lori  October 8, 2007
 

Nish Joshi is a Celebrity guru who has opened a Wellness Centre: a gym and yoga studio with Programs tailored to an individual’s health needs. He fuses a truly “holistic” prescription for his clients that includes -natural remedies, diet, accupunture, yoga, massage, postural training. For example, if your sugar levels are out of control, exercise could make you feel even more tired, so before your workout he may recommend an isotonic drink. So, in addition to the stuff that Joshi ordinarily recommends to his high profile, exhausted, stressed-out clients (diets, colonic irrigation, acupuncture) they’ll now be able to pick up a prescription for exercise at the same time. ‘It’s about giving people tangible help,’ he says.
