The "New York Times" bestseller - with a new afterword about early
specialization in youth sports.
The debate is as old as physical competition. Are stars like Usain
Bolt, Michael Phelps, and Serena Williams genetic freaks put on
Earth to dominate their respective sports? Or are they simply
normal people who overcame their biological limits through sheer
force of will and obsessive training?
In this controversial and engaging exploration of athletic success
and the so-called 10,000-hour rule, David Epstein tackles the great
nature vs. nurture debate and traces how far science has come in
solving it. Through on-the-ground reporting from below the equator
and above the Arctic Circle, revealing conversations with leading
scientists and Olympic champions, and interviews with athletes who
have rare genetic mutations or physical traits, Epstein forces us
to rethink the very nature of athleticism.
YOGA, MEET LIFE. Sometimes an hour-long yoga class is the only
chance we get to connect meaningfully with our bodies and our minds
during an otherwise hectic week. For a brief moment we're able to
let our worries melt away and feel relaxed, centered, and fully
ourselves. Have you ever wondered how it would feel to bring that
experience out of the yoga studio and into your everyday life? In
Do Your Om Thing, master yoga teacher and creator of the popular
blog OmGal.com Rebecca Pacheco shows us how to do just that. The
true practice of yoga, she says, goes deeper than achieving the
perfect headstand-it is about bringing awareness and intention to
every part of our lives. In her warm, personal, and often hilarious
prose, Rebecca translates yogic philosophy for its
twenty-first-century devotees, making ancient principles feel
accessible, relatable, and genuinely rooted in the world in which
we live today.

Exercise and nutrition programs designed to achieve weight loss and
improve health and fitness have received considerable attention in
recent decades. Though a large number of books have been published
on the subject, the vast majority of these books focus on the
latest fad diet, usually alone or sometimes in combination with the
latest fad exercise regimen, but they rarely provide scientific,
evidence-based reasons for their use. Eat, Move, Sleep Repeat is
very different. It provides a scientific evidence-based rationale
for selecting certain diets and forms of physical activity that can
help to achieve effective body fat and body weight loss; explains
how to develop a personalized weight loss plan; gives guidelines
for a healthy balanced diet; provides advice on how to improve
sleep quality, avoid common illnesses, keep senses, and organs
healthy and how much exercise is needed to get health benefits.
Meant for every fitness goal, fitness level, and occupation, The
Healthy Lifestyle Guidebook aims to provide a set of evidence-based
guidelines on how to establish a healthy lifestyle that will
promote better quality of life with reduced risk of chronic disease
and extend longevity.

In this essential book, Dona Holleman blends her unique philosophy
of yoga with substantial and detailed descriptions of the asanas.
First self-published in 1999 as "Dancing the Body of Light" (from
which the central chapter on asana is reprinted) this edition
includes new material, including a foreword by the author. Drawing
from over 50 years of experience in yoga practice and teaching,
Dona's ambitious and uncompromising book, written in a crisp, clear
and no-nonsense style, is a must for all serious yoga practitioners
and teachers.
Los Angeles-based yoga instructor Mark Whitwell explores the inner
dimensions of yogic practice, focusing especially on clearing the
energy centers and meridians and fostering dynamic health.
"Mind Fitness Workout" is a unique exercise DVD that gives an extra
advantage in losing weight and inches. It achieves this with
special music played during a one-on-one workout. In the music,
there are positive weight-loss suggestions repeated continually
with a technique only your subconscious mind (Sub-Mind) can hear.
This technique enables the positive suggestions to directly
influence the Sub-Mind creating a process called Subliminal
Persuasion. By continually using Subliminal Persuasion you will
reinforce the positive behaviours you need to lose weight and
inches automatically!The DVD includes: three 12-minute Fitness
Workouts, each with various exercises and different levels of
intensity (the first level for beginners), and one 30-minute
Fitness Workout that combines all three; subliminal suggestions in
the music in all four Fitness Workouts, as well as an option to
play all the workouts without the suggestions in the music;
directions for performing a Mind Fitness Workout; how and why
Subliminal Persuasion works; plus a bonus of nine minutes of music
with positive weight-loss suggestions for your Sub-Mind. Just relax
and listen to the soothing music when you are not exercising and
still receive the benefits of Subliminal Persuasion. No equipment
is needed for a Mind Fitness Workout, and it can be used in
conjunction with any exercise program or diet. The approximate
running time is 120 minutes.
