What's in Your 24? is a book for women who want to create a "new
normal" in their lives. 24 is the guide to living happier, getting
fit from the inside out, taking control of your destiny, and living
life without excuses. 24 will empower you, make you laugh, teach
you how to love yourself more, how to prioritize your thoughts, how
to be more selfish with your time, and how to quiet the chatter
around you. 24 intentionally consists of 60 pages and three
chapters that will change your life forever. It contains 24 Time
Efficiency Tips that Simone promises will help you maximize your
day more effectively and help you exercise at least three times a
day with little effort. 24 is a concise and radical lifestyle guide
that shouldn't take you more than 60 minutes to read it, more than
60 seconds to make the decision to change your life, and no more
than 24 hours to begin making that transformation.
In examining the course of the debate between the philosophies of
Rousseau and Wollstonecraft in the first seventy years of the
nineteenth century, several important conclusions have been
reached. First, a much more diverse spectrum of women's exercise
existed in the antebellum era than is currently described in modern
historical texts. Second, several exercise systems had significant
links to an ideal of womanhood - called in this text Majestic
Womanhood - which directly competed with the prevailing construct
of the ideology of True Womanhood articulated by historian Barbara
Welter. Third, purposive training mattered in the lives of American
women influencing them physically, intellectually, and emotionally.
In many instances this training empowered women to step beyond the
confines of their separate sphere of domestic duty and involve
themselves in the world outside their homes.

Overwhelmed? Overscheduled? Want to access the benefits of yoga, but can’t seem to make it to the mat? Beat stress with a yoga ritual that works for you in 20-minutes or less. Featuring adaptations for anxiety, weight loss, injury, and prenatal yoga, this "playful and real" (Elena Brower) guide is a must-read for beginners and seasoned yoga teachers alike.
We all know that yoga can calm your mind and heal your body, but let’s be real: It can be hard to cram one more thing into your messy, stressful, time-crunched life. Good news! If you're not making it to the mat, the problem isn’t you—it’s the yoga you’re practicing.
Award-winning instructor and Uplifted Yoga founder Brett Larkin is here to help you design an adaptable, personalized practice, and cut to the chase with quick yoga habits that soothe your soul. With the support of quizzes and thirty book-exclusive companion videos you’ll learn:
- A five-step method to design a personal practice that works for your schedule
- How to adapt your practice to meet your physical, mental, and emotional needs
- More than a dozen yoga habits that will help you calm your mind and body, even if you never manage to make it to the mat
Grounded in the wisdom of yoga’s original texts, Brett reminds us that yoga was always meant to fit easily into our everyday lives. Whether you’re a beginner or a life-long practitioner, Yoga Life is your new go-to for a personal, transformative, joyful at-home practice to strengthen your mind, body, and spirit.
With this yoga guide, you can delve into a sport as good for your
mind as it is for your body--and become a part of the vast (and
continually growing) yoga community in the US and beyond. Dating
back to the 11th century Vedic Indian tradition, the practice of
yoga didn't gain prominence in the Western world until the 20th
century. Fast forward to the present day, and yoga communities are
huge--and still showing steady growth. Yoga is as good for the mind
as it is for the body, and its benefits include flexibility, weight
loss, stress reduction, pain relief, and spiritual growth. This
yoga book for beginners covers the origins of yoga including its
philosophy, history, and the various styles of yoga schools as they
apply to Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. The Simpkins,
neuroscience professionals with over 40 years teaching experience,
address the curiosities and concerns of the beginning student, such
as: Where do I begin? How do I find a teacher? How do I prepare for
my first class? What do the unfamiliar terms mean? And much, much
more Yoga Basics focuses on the yoga essentials of breathing,
balance, and the yoga poses themselves. Meditation and relaxation
techniques are also discussed to complement your yoga exercises or
yoga workouts. This accessible and comprehensive introduction is
everything you need to learn yoga with confidence and success.
Whether new to Ashtanga or an experienced student or teacher,
readers will find this book to be invaluable. It contains over 650
photos and multiple variations for every asana in the primary and
intermediate series plus three short forms. Its spiral binding
assures easy use while practicing and the hard cover increases
durability.
Barrett has been asked many times throughout the years, "How long
will it take me to get into shape?" Since each person is unique and
many variables play a role in the process of getting into shape,
Barrett touches on a partial list of factors that can affect the
speed of progress, including consistency, intensity, proper diet,
sleep, nutritional supplements, age, genetics, metabolism, gender,
weight and lifestyle.
Benefits of exercise and proper diet can enhance the overall
quality of your life physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Exercise and proper diet can assist you physically by helping to
control weight, prevent obesity, reduce (bad) cholesterol levels,
decrease blood sugar levels, slow the aging process, increase your
energy level, help prevent heart disease, and aid rehabilitation
after injury, operation, or illness. In addition, exercise and
proper diet can assist you psychologically by helping to improve
sleep, fight depression, reduce anxiety, relieve stress, increase
self-esteem, enhance self-confidence, and much more.
You are the pilot of your own ship; therefore, you will create
your own destiny. Only you can choose to help yourself. Without
goals, you are like a cork in the ocean floating wherever the tide
wants to take you.
