For me, growing old and infirm has never been an option. I watched my grandparents; uncles & aunts and parents all suffer from declining health and loss of mobility due to inactivity. As an adult, reaching 30 and 40 years of age, I was shocked to discover that most of my former school mates had turned into old men and women. Not for me! I made the decision to stay active, healthy, fit and strong for as long as I possibly could and so the essence of this book was born.

Sanford has influenced thousands of everyday people, athletes and performers with his unique way of making people feel great about themselves and helping them to see that if they really want to, they can change their circumstances by changing their minds. He assists everyone he comes across to see that their greatest lessons in life come from not judging or beating themselves up when they make mistakes, but by really listening and being open to all of the joy and the love that they are undoubtedly surrounded by. Sanford is a dynamic speaker, cheerleading coach, singer, dancer, acrobat and choreographer. He is the Founder and Director of his own cheerleading business, Cheersport Australia, as well as a graduate of both the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York and the National Institute of Circus Arts in Melbourne, Australia.

Health means the existence of harmony and synergy among physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of life, and not simply an absence of disease. Our body is a complete unit, a microcosm, but also a tiny part of the universe surrounding it, the macrocosm. Its vitality, functions, movements, and survival are dependent and affected by the environment we live in. The topic of mind, body, and health has been a subject of discussion and the motivation behind a number of books written in the past few decades. The origin of this philosophy can be traced to thousands of years in many ancient cultures. Knowing how different components of a computer work or how a combustion engine makes the car move forward are not necessary to use a computer or drive a car. However, having basic knowledge about them makes it easier to understand and use these devices effectively. Similarly, knowing about the basic functioning of one's body, both in light of ancient philosophies and in context of modern science, can help better understand the concepts of causes of ill health and the means for protection. In light of the rising health care cost and the scourge of modern diseases-such as anxiety, depression, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, etc.-it is imperative to be aware as much about body, health, mind, and our lifestyles as possible. Knowledge about how ancient cultures protected health from ravages of life and how some cultures can still enjoy healthy, happy, and long lives without spending enormous amounts on health care could be beneficial to all of us. This book is an attempt to bridge the ancient philosophies with the current concepts and offer some simple and practical solutions to stay healthy.
All endurance sports are as much a test of your emotional endurance ability as they are a test of your physical ability.

This book provides a unique, detailed, and much needed look at the emotional and mental aspects of training for triathlons. It clearly explains the underlying theory as well as offering easy to follow, practical advice and techniques that any athlete can use - from elite level to novice - to strengthen and use the mind to achieve more than they ever thought possible. - Chrissie Wellington, 4-Time World Champion Never underestimate the power of being excited and motivated. Emotions are a big part of sports. This book helps with managing them to perform better. - Andy Potts, Olympian, 70.3 World Champion Emotions, mental fortitude, and imagery are core to success in triathlon races. Those that have trained for them will perform better. This ground-breaking book will help you do that. - Meredith Kessler, Ironman Champion, 70.3 US Pro Champion For any triathlete, brand new or seasoned, I guarantee that reading this book will give you some awesome new tools so that every race and workout is a great one. - Bob Babbitt, USAT and Ironman Hall of Fame

Nobody can possibly care about your health as much as you. The sooner you realize it, the faster you can do something about it.Running to the doctor, and the pharmacy afterward, has become the norm for most health issues. If approached with common sense, however, many could be handled from home. Health isn't a right unless you fight for it. I'm the Un-Druggist, a pharmacist disgusted with what commonly passes for health care today in the U.S. The truth about healthy living often conflicts with those common medical beliefs.Truth is our only chance. |
