    Let us begin with a simple truth: sustainability is not a hustle, but a posture. 
    In Creating Eco Habits, the work of changing your behavior is not frantic or forced—but graceful, curated, and deeply intentional. 
    Rooted in the quiet power of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), this book offers a new philosophy of habit formation—one that speaks to the thoughtful soul. There are no charts. No guilt. No race toward zero-waste perfection. 
    Instead, you’ll find rituals, language, and reflections designed to gently rewire your daily choices—from how you make tea to how you buy, mend, walk, reuse, and refuse. 
    This is habit change for those who long to live with less—but better. 
    With beauty. With clarity. With care. 
    Whether you're new to sustainability or quietly evolving how you move through the world, Creating Eco Habits invites you into a lifestyle where less is not lacking— 
    it is luxury.

    Obscurantism in power When...

    Over the last ten years or so, it has become commonplace to hear talk of an obscurantist threat linked to a rise in irrationality, manifested mainly by a mistrust of vaccination and conventional medicine. But obscurantism can also be found where we pride ourselves on fighting it. In this case, it is no longer the work of marginal or anti-establishment groups, but of a dominant way of thinking that presents itself as that of science and rationality. 
    The aim of this book is to lift the veil on this obscurantism in power. Through numerous examples, from impeded research into unexplained phenomena such as near-death experiences, to the vast field of medicine where the pharmaceutical industry has cornered the market on proving the usefulness of a treatment, Brice Perrier reveals how reason is transformed into dogmatism and hinders the advancement of knowledge. 
    The aim of the book is not to say what is true or false, nor to settle scientific controversies, but to understand why these debates, which have always been legitimate and even necessary in science, may simply no longer be allowed.

    Medical nutrition is a specialized area of healthcare that focuses on the role of diet in maintaining health and managing diseases. It combines the science of nutrition with clinical practice, emphasizing the importance of individualized dietary interventions to prevent, treat, or manage health conditions. In recent decades, the significance of medical nutrition has become increasingly recognized due to the growing understanding of the profound impact diet has on overall well-being. 
    Diet plays a pivotal role in both the prevention and management of various diseases. It is now understood that nutrition can influence the development of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and obesity. These conditions are not only prevalent globally but are also closely linked to poor dietary habits, making nutrition a key factor in reducing their burden. For individuals already living with chronic diseases, medical nutrition becomes even more critical, as it helps manage symptoms, improve quality of life, and in some cases, slow disease progression. 
    The core principle of medical nutrition is to design personalized nutrition care plans that meet the specific needs of patients. This involves taking into account factors such as age, gender, medical history, lifestyle, and specific health conditions. By using evidence-based approaches, healthcare professionals, including dietitians, doctors, and nutritionists, can guide patients toward dietary choices that support their health and recovery.
