Profile: Great Body at 50 Mary Desaulniers...New VoiceAmerica™ Talk Show Host

By Susan Regier

This fall, London resident Mary Desaulniers will host a new VoiceAmerica Internet radio talk show on the 7^th Wave Network. A health and wellness expert, Desaulniers’ show, “Reclaiming the Body’s Wisdom” begins October 5^th and broadcasts at 3:00 p.m. aimed at anyone interested in health, fitness, and quality of life.

After teaching high school for twenty-eight years at Laurier and Saunders, Mary Desaulniers turned from teenagers to working with adults over fifty – to help the aging boomers have a “Great Body at 50” – or basically to teach them how to stay young and inspired for the rest of their lives. Good health and fitness have always been a way of life for Desaulniers. For nearly three decades, she has run up to five miles a day, five days a week.

“I remember turning fifty with the usual fear and denial that accompany many of us who cannot understand how quickly the years have sped by. Now at fifty-six, I can honestly say that this is the best time in my life,” said Desaulniers.

Today, Desaulniers is a writer and the Senior Health Editor at www.e-healtharticles.com and is a featured expert at www.WeightLossBuddy.com and www.Sideroad.com. Plus, her articles and short stories have been published in Nineteenth Century Literature, The London Magazine, the literary journal Grain and anthology Entering the Landscape.

In this series, listeners will learn how to tap into the wisdom of their own bodies. Desaulniers has been given total creative freedom over her weekly broadcasts, which begin October 5^th. She has put together an impressive line-up of guest speakers, including Dr. Bruce Lipton, a cell biologist and former professor at the University of Wisconsin Medical School; Dr. John Diamond, a pioneer in alternative and holistic medicine; and Carol Emery Normandi and Laurelee Roark, founders of Beyond Hunger Inc.

“What we lose at fifty is compensated by what we gain at the same time. This is a zero-point field where everything or nothing is possible…and where taking a risk can mean everything that lies between aging gracefully and dying before death,” said Desaulniers.

To tune into “Reclaiming the Body’s Wisdom” with Mary Desaulniers, log onto the 7^th Wave Network at www.7thwavenetwork.com. Callers are welcome during the 3:00 p.m. live broadcast every Thursday starting October 5, 2006 by calling toll free 866-472-5795. Past shows will be available by On Demand and podcast download.

As more people are working and surfing online, Web-based radio programs have become increasingly popular. VoiceAmerica™ is the single largest producer of Internet talk radio programming in the world…and Mary Desaulniers’ program promises to be a major hit to the aging boomers.
