Welcome to the Spring 2007 edition of 'Well'. April has given the green light to my garden, the hockey play-offs have started and baseball has begun, albeit sometimes in the snow. 'Well' is aligned with John 10:10, which says, "I have come that you might have life and have it more abundantly." Amen to that. In this issue, we point out some parallels between global warming and globular bodies and look at the increasing evidence showing the positive impact of physical activity on the human brain. We document the remarkable spread of pedometers throughout North America and take a look at some new uploadable pedometers. Don Ardell's new book, "Aging Under the Influence of a Wellness Lifestyle" is introduced and ParticipACTION is welcomed back. I hope you have as much fun reading the 'Grins' as we do selecting them. Enjoy our other features. As always, big thanks to Ron Nye for making this the best-looking wellness webzine we've ever seen. :: Martin Collis

Physical Activity;
Certainly Not a No-Brainer

there is now a growing body
of research that shows a relationship
between mental and physical fitness

Last Words
on Walking & Pedometers

the mental benefits of walking
are not unlike those produced by
the popular antidepressant Prozac
Global Warming
and Globular Bodies

there are certain similarities
about the warming of the planet
and the fattening of those who inhabit it

Next Step
in Pedometry

as people grow up with
technology it will seem logical
to store and graph their walking data
Aging Under
the Influence of
a Wellness Lifestyle

the stated idea of the book
is to assist you to "intelligently design
your own evolution"
Welcome Back
ParticipACTION

people of my generation still remember
the unfavorable comparison of fitness
between a 60-year-old Swede and
a 30-year-old Canadian
